Hi Paul - Thanks for the link to that paper. I am looking forward to your comments on the Kiscoty structure. My guess is that the depth of the ice sheet may be estimated from the height of the rebound, but I am incapable of performing detailed calculations from any formula you may know of.

2015-06-28 Thread Shawn Alan via Meteorite-list
Hello Listers and Don From my understanding there are few dealers that will buy whole collections, it depends on the price and what you have. Now if your looking to sell fast that's the best way to go, but your going to loose a lot in what you paid on your collection. Lets say you spent 100,000

Hi Don, I know several dealers that purchase meteorite collections. Personally, I have purchased one or two within the last year and am always looking to buy more. However, remember that meteorites are not selling as well as they did in the past, therefore, a dealer can't overpay. If you have

Hmm... interesting topic. I started out somewhat slowly, but soon went overboard with new acquisitions. For me, anyway. I've begun to thin out my collection a bit, but I'm certainly not ready to give it all up yet. Still, I need to strike a reasonable balance. I want to retain a respectable
