Hi
This is not unique to meteorite. Other shops also have products unavailable
or just sold out and waiting for new shipments.
And sometimes is nice to show late buyer what he missed and how looks other
slices that was sold (most cases if specimen have low TKW). But indeed we
are bussy counting our money and we have no time for boring website updates.

List,
I am curious why almost every meteorite dealer's website displays
specimens that have already sold right along side specimens that are
in stock and available for sale? I do not know of any other market
that does this; it is unique to meteorites in my experiences. As a
collector/prospective buyer I do not see the upside to this practice.
It does nothing for helping me find what I'm looking for; in fact it
is counter productive when I am shopping for a specimen as it makes it
more difficult to see what is actually available for sale. It's
synonymous with looking for clothes in your size and every store has
displays showing your size but not actually selling any clothes that
fit you. Maybe a separate page for "Sold Specimens" would be more
appropriate if there was a need that I am not aware of to display
pieces that have already been sold? I look forward to becoming
educated on this matter.
Regards,
Michael in so. Cal.
