Hello John K.,
Thank you very much for the quick thin section pictures of Adam's ACAP
and whichever other acapulcoites are more or less probably paired with.
These pics are much more interesting and even more beautiful than all
the talk about assumed or real pairings and TKW's of these
Hello All !
I've just purchased my 3.7-gram, extremely metal- and troilite-rich slice
of NWA 2989 (Item #6605571076 - just in case you care to take a look ;-)
that Adam is offering on EBay. Look at it and you'll know what I mean!

Hi Bernd and all,
Thank you for the kind words on NWA 2989. This is one very hard meteorite to
image properly. Images of the two pieces that were pointed out were taken at
a slightly different angle than the rest. All were polished to 3,000 grit
so they reflect like a mirror into my camera
Hi Bernd...Yes, if it is paired to our new Acapulcoite
NWA 2714 and NWA 2656, then the provisional write-up
in MB90 states that the TKW is accounted for by a
single ~ 7.5 kilogram stone which was apparently
broken into pieces and sold.
Cheers

Hello All
Hi List,
I believe it is paired to others but mine came as an individual not broken
from another piece as far as I can tell. Anyway you look at, this new
Acapulcoite is one great looking meteorite, especially when polished to a
mirror finish.
Take Care,
Adam
Hi Adam...the classification write-up usually states
whether it is likely paired to other meteorites. What
did your write up state? If it is a complete
individual, and it is paired to NWA 2656 and NWA 2714
and others, then I would think the TKW for this
grouping must be over 7.5 kilos. Did the

John and List,
I do not see why you are making such an example out of this because it
happens all of the time but if any of you felt you were somehow mislead than
I would be happy to give you a full refund. You only have to look at any
dealers' websites to see the same problem with pairings.
. IF anyone
wants a piece and 4 or 5 grams isnt enough then wirte Nelson, I belive his
piece is up for grabs - or at least it was listed in Lang's auction at
tucson...

See John, The world works like this.
Meteorite Rule #1 - The Hupes make the rules
Meteorite Rule #2 - Rules can chage to suit the Hupes
(But nobody elses) needs as the situation arises.
In this case it is in Adam's interest to say the TKW
is only 77 grams. And if somebody complains about

Dean,
If you have some personal beef with me take it off of the List. You are
always jumping in with your idiotic comments which contribute absolutely
nothing and make no sense to me. Why you would want to start a public fight
is beyond me. Don't you have something more constructive to do? You

Hello list,
To get back to the spirit of Bernd's e-mail.
This NWA acapulcoite, a.k.a., NWA 2656, NWA 2714 and NWA 2989 (others?) is
one of the better deals on the market right now. (And Blaine Reed I think
has the best price). The meteorite is somewhat weathered and slices very in

Re: Jim noted, I got this slice in a trade from Blaine Reed under the NWA
2871 number which had a tkw of 3467 grams.
http://www.catchafallingstar.com/nwa2871.htm
As par for you Jim, very awesome slice. I mistyped my last e-mail, my slice
is NWA 2871. At 2.2 grams it is much smaller then
It is amazing to see professional dealers lowering there prices on this
Acapulcoite in response to this string. A hint, if you are going to
piggyback somebody else's sales, use the word Ad or Sale in the header
instead of sneaking in a sales pitch which I find distasteful.
Al the best,
Adam
