This meteor-wrong has been studied extensively. I believe the consensus of many
to date is that it is terrestrial, and possibly man-made. Matt Morgan was
involved in one such study and that reference is somewhere in the archives.
Here is a statement from the meteorite society.
Cheap is a relative term. It is a lot cheaper now versus when it was first sold
as a new pallasite find. But since it is cool looking material that appears
to be similar to a pallasite, it is still not $0.10/g or lesslike cheap
chondrites and irons. Pricing is still in the $1 to $3 per gram
Marcin, Adam and others:
While I provided Marcin's site to the list as a location to buy this

material for profit. Maybe someday I'll get a piece for free, or by having one

Two great lists to keep as evidence to the rarity of both types. Irons and SI's

As I understand it...
most L, LL, H, E, C chondrule formations are thought to have occurred from 4.55
billion to 4.70 billion years ago, with varied dating results typically found
when analyzing the different elements in a rock being studied. Whole rock
dating gives up an overall average age.
