"worth more than 6300$" is a pretty open ended statement, isnt it?

I dont know if any of the people who routinely chase falls will publuically
say what they typically pay for items, but would many dealers offer much
more the 5$/gram for a common chonderite? the price seems to be about
right...

after all, the garza stone has been offered for as low as what, 10$/gram and
is still on the market, isnt it?
