Some remark about the pricing. It=92s getting more and more difficult to =
make real bargains, meanwhile most participiants there know the prices =
very well. Most specialized dealers from internet will bring their =
prices with them, which you can read on their sites. Of course there is =
always an opportunity to discuss the prices. For real advantageous =
deals, and until now I found every year some fine things, you need =
patience and stamina, because there are always more than 700 exhibitors =
and to find out the best meteorite offers takes a lot time. The desert =
crap, by the way, costed last year 60-80Euro per kg. So visit the fair =
on at least 2days (try to order a ticket for the first day, the GEOFA, =
because it=92s not so crowed then), let the first hall, there are always =
three, beside at the beginning, there are only few meteorites, write =
down the number of the tables, where you found something interesting, to =
avoid long running around to find it again and just enjoy.

The fair ground is easy accessible from any point of the city by subway.

=20

All in all I think for meteorite freaks it=92s still a great event, well =
worth to visit, as such an assemblage of meteorites is quite remarkable =
and many meteorite experts will be there.

Last time, I think, I saw Mike Farmer, his shadow is getting larger each =
year, Christian =93Austromet=94 Anger was there and of course Dieter & =
GabiHeinlein were waltzing through the crowd with the double pram for =
the upcoming generation of meteorite experts, the heavenly twins. The =
Heinleins organized the absolute highlight for us meteorite freaks, a =
great exhibition (with additional lectures) of the new Bavarian fall, =
the Neuschwanstein meteorite!=20

=20

So hope to see all of you in Munich!

Martin

IMCA #3825

=20

PS: Many visitors combine the Munich fair with a visit to the only =
specialized show in Germany, the International Meteorite in Gifhorn. It =
takes place the weekend before Munich and as it=92s located in Northern =
Germany, thus it=92s directely on your way, Jim.
