Competition steps up! Time for collectors to benefit of some friendly competitiveness.
Ok.. How about this... Today only, non translucent samples of the NWA 6291 angrite for met list members $100 per gram. Thats 4 grams of a unique angrite for the price of one gram of D'Orbigny... Thats a wow moment, thats even less then ebay prices at auction! Will any of you match that price on your angrites?
