Hmm Adam, but what about Your Park Forest impactites from someone house ?
I was alvays really astonished that serious dealer can offer such things and
sone other ppl can buy them.
This is maybe the same type of non-meteorite material, but for sure
Shirokovsky is cheaper and more beautifull than fragment of glass or wood
table from someone house. I not see a sense in buying that kind of
materials, but as we know ppl collect sometimes strange things.
What about selling one square inch of Peekskill car body for 50$ ? Sounds
for me as good bussines.(joke)
