I love how the Merritt Herald newspaper article, http://www.merrittherald.com/news/166428806.html, says Most meteorites are valued at about $800 per gram. I have a 2974g NWA515 L6 and a 2594g NWA527 L5 I'd be more than happy to sell at $800 a gram so I can retire. Fred Bieler Astronomics

I'd suggest using plastic bubble wrap to protect them during shipment, as it already consists of many holes surrounded by plastic. That way, if the hole gets damaged in transit, the recipient already has a supply of replacement holes on hand. Fred Bieler Astronomics/Christophers, Ltd./Cloudy
