Take a look at ebay item #1186079201 for a piece of Sikhote-alin Rusty Shrapnel. Although you say in your write-up that there are two types of Sikhote-alin, Regmaglypted and Shrapnel, you don't say which type you are offering. $.41 per gram for rusty Shrapnel.....GOOD JOB!!!!</P> <P>Randy<BR><BR></P></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV>>From: "Robert & Wendi Beauford" <WENDIROB_at_LAPLAZA.ORG> <DIV></DIV>>To: <METEORITE-LIST_at_METEORITECENTRAL.COM> <DIV></DIV>>Subject: [meteorite-list] Butt Ugly Meteorite <DIV></DIV>>Date: Sat, 6 Oct 2001 01:53:53 -0600 <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>"> Enchanted Treasures should take this approach as a model.<> Nick<" <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>That's a pretty broad statement. Have you got a problem with me or my <DIV></DIV>>meteorites Nick? <DIV></DIV>>I offer fine NWA, Sah, and unamed chondrites as well as a few named American <DIV></DIV>>finds. Most have fusion crust, shock veining, or other points of interest <DIV></DIV>>that bring them above the average muck. The cuts are nice, the weights are <DIV></DIV>>accurately reported, and the prices are fair. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Do you think 1012755903 deserves to be called Ugly Rock? I sort of feel <DIV></DIV>>that it's beautiful mottled and veined interior would deserve a bit more <DIV></DIV>>respect. <DIV></DIV>>How about 1011444051 with some nice clear chondrules and fusion crust... is <DIV></DIV>>that what you have a problem with? <DIV></DIV>>Ok, so my picture of 1011796964 looks like a cow pie. It's a nice stone <DIV></DIV>>though. Same stuff I cut that had the nice shock veining. And some <DIV></DIV>>gorgeous crust to boot. <DIV></DIV>>Only someone with no sense would call 1010581477 ugly. That's an awesome <DIV></DIV>>rock. <DIV></DIV>>1010482417... just another piece of 00604, but hey fresh crust and a nice <DIV></DIV>>little specimen. <DIV></DIV>>And this one... 1010482287. Not the most amazing piece of work on earth, <DIV></DIV>>but it's got what looks like a nice micrometeorite impact scar on it, and <DIV></DIV>>it's a nice sized specimen. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>I don't know, maybe I missed the boat somewhere along the way, but your <DIV></DIV>>comment seems a little out of left field. Perhaps you'd like to explain or <DIV></DIV>>apologize? <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>-Robert Beauford <DIV></DIV>>enchanted-treasures <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Show your support at the Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund - http://s1.amazon.com/exec/varzea/ts/my-pay-page/PKAXFNQH7EKCX/058-5084202-7156648 <DIV></DIV>>_______________________________________________ <DIV></DIV>>Meteorite-list mailing list <DIV></DIV>>Meteorite-list_at_meteoritecentral.com <DIV></DIV>>http://www.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list <DIV></DIV></div><br clear=all><hr>Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at <a href='http://go.msn.com/bql/hmtag_itl_EN.asp'>http://explorer.msn.com</a><br></html> Received on Sat 06 Oct 2001 08:02:39 AM PDT |
