Hi,
I have read some eyewitness reports of heat from the Chelybinsk
meteor. There was such heat coming in, as if it were summer. Is there any
evidence that there was a rise in temperatures on the ground. I would assume
that in a city the size of Chelybinsk there would be someone recording
Hi All,
For those that have been following the eBay price history of
Chelyabinsk, the below $10/gram price point was just breached.
($9.32/g for a 63-gram specimen). I have been keeping a log
of all Chelyabinsk eBay sales of stones 3-grams or larger,
and the median price has fallen from about
If anyone is interested I have a mint set, including slip cover, of the rare,
three volume Handbook of Iron Meteorites by Vagn F. Buchwald. I have had the
set for some 30 years now and it has seen little use. The set has been stored
away for most of that period and I am wishing to sell it as I
Just saw that. Not surprisingly the piece is being sold direct from Chelyabinsk.
Buyers taking huge risk that it will arrive from central Russia. I think that
rusk depresses price and bidding pretty badly.

True enough -- for some anecdotal evidence, I opted to test a small
amount of money to purchase a stone from this seller back on March 19th.
The estimated delivery date was given as April 9-25 (by which time the
price per gram will be down to a third of what I paid). --Rob

It is getting closer to my recent SWAG (Scientific Wild Ass Guess) of $3.80 to
$5.00/gram within a month or two.

Hello Rob and Listers
Thats great :)
But I found a sale that beats the $9.32/g which a 28g Chelybinsk sold for $200
which makes it $7.14/g
but the shipping was $50. So if you wanted to include shipping, it would make
it $8.92/g.

We'll see;)

Hi Shawn,
I seems to take eBay a day or two to add recent sales to its completed
listings search. I try to stay on top of the auctions that interest me to
see what they end up going for as they finish, but some of the uglier
stones I don't bother adding to my watch list, so I don't tally them
The smaller 2g stones are still fetching very high prices. The old
wisdom holds true - the bigger the stone, the cheaper the price per
gram. :)

Hi Mike,
All posts I have seen from you in the last couple of weeks have
Come from your IPhone. Does that mean you are still in Russia and
Coming back to the US soon like Santa with a big bag full of Chelyabinsk

Hi Mike, Rob, and all -
Well , I for one dealt with this seller (the one Rob mentions -- i.e.
seller name .a.) plus one other from whom I purchased from in the past
and have a GOOD history with, while the other was just on a
whim/chance. Both came through excellently ( more than once) with

I also have several grams of fragments, crumbs, and specks that are
available as micromounts. If interested, contact me off-list. :)
I got the display from Mike Farmer and
Utt. Looks like he (Mike Farmer) shut his phone off there Mike Blood. I'll
take a guess and say he was never in Russia! Lol that might get the phone
back up!

Thanks Mike,
You keep me activated. I only have one wish to come true and that is
that NWA 231 becomes approved and not provisional.
Anthony Love, this is a yell out to you.
