Hi folks!

This is the most important thing for our hobby or business: publicity and
education! It?s not important how big a fair is (like Andy Gren has posted),
it?s important that there is a fair. Sure, Gifhorn is very very small, but
it can grow and become bigger.......
Shame on us, if we only think on profit if we talk about meteorites....

Just my two ?-cents!

======
Now my two thousant dollars

Gifhorn was very nice fair 3-4 years ago. I was on fair No 2-3-4 I think but
from the last 2 years it going down. Just find Martin Boockleboo report from
Gifhorn 2005. Anyway if someone live 100-300km far from Gifhorn its not a
problem. But for me and my friends its 800km. Too far to drive only fo
little fun, and in the best years the Poland Team was one of the biggest on
fair, 10-11 persons)

Money in this hobby is very importand thing. We love meteorites but time is
not good and money are importand. I think how to sell to have money for next
meteorites, You think how to buy cheap to get more pieces for Your
collection.
Buying and selling its just half of the fun in meteorite business. Not only
hunt them, watch them, cut/polish them.
I stoped buy meteorites for my collection. I have found other way. I buy
meteorites for sale. It is fun for me and pleasure, also if this not bring
me back big profits. And if in mean time some collectors will be happy from
specimens that they purchased from me it is just extra profit for me.
