[meteorite-list] Ad - No Reserve Auctions Ending - Great Stuff!

2017-10-31 Thread Adam Hupe via Meteorite-list

Dear List Members,

I have some great pieces of NWA 5000 Real Lunar Material ending at 
auction this evening and tomorrow night.  All were started at just 99 
cents with no reserve.  Now is the time to buy since the price is low 
and is just starting to recover, at least on pre-NWA 7000 pieces that 
predate 2012.  Buyers are getting more picky about what they place in 
their collections and realize there is no secondary market for the new 
material outside of eBay.


I may start selling officially classified Martian meteorites again since 
they have mostly recovered from the market flood of a few years ago 
where most of the material being offered was unstudied and self-paired. 
This is what is happening in the Lunar market today. If the real total 
weights and self-paired stones were known, Martian material would easily 
exceed Lunar meteorites by weight which has always been the case in the 
past.  Take the he top Martian offering for example, NWA 7034 (Black 
Beauty), with its many pairings, only has a reported weight of around 
1,600 grams when everybody knows much more exists.  Who knows what price 
it would bring if the real Total Known Weight was reported?


No Reserve auctions ending this evening:

[meteorite-list] AD: Want To Buy Large Zag or Monahans

2017-10-31 Thread AL Mitorling via Meteorite-list
Greetings,

I have two riker displays of Monahans, with an image of the boys that one
of the specimens fell near and a micro specimen enclosed in the riker. Came
from the source that helped the boys get ownership of the material.

I also have a larger Millbillillie, Australia 360 grams that has half black
crust and half clay coated crust that is nearly 100% fusion crusted
(99.98%). I also have a 22 lbs Canyon Diablo available and a large Odessa
with a face in it for sale. Contact me if interested. Photos available.

Re: [meteorite-list] AD- $0.99 Meteorite Auctions ending HUGE Pallasite, Lunar, Iron & More

2017-10-31 Thread Mattias Bärmann via Meteorite-list


When I click on the 404 g Habaswein - which btw. is meanwhile officially 
classified as 'Sericho' - , I get the 6g lunar breccia NWA 11266.


And the 528 g SA fragment is far from being "world class".

So, sorry: not really convinced.

Best regards - Matthias
