Secondly, I want to thank Mike for inviting me on both trips to Kenya, first one I was not able to make due to a project at the time, but luckily I was able to join him in the hunt and recoveries during the second trip! Mike offered me a most generous deal in the recoveries, sharing in expenses, something he did not have to do since he succeeded alone in his first trip to the new fall, "Thank You, Mike!" > > Now I sit at the Atlanta airport waiting for my connection to Tampa, been traveling since Sunday morning...

You make it sound like your loosing money. >> >> Any whos if you make your money back and double that, thats still a killing which you will, not to mention I bet you will do trades for the meteorites as well. I know how much money can be had from new falls with meteorites and I think a few people on here can say the same. Not saying that what you do is easy, but money can be made from new fresh falls and you said your self.... >> >> "Real news will breaking in hours........ >> Get your checkbooks out." >> >> and >> >> " I may have >> one or two larger stones available, 279~ g and 313~ gram 100% complete, but >> not cheap!" >> >> At any rate hunters like you and other make it possible for use and the rest of the meteorite community to collect. Thank you and glad you made it out to Kenya or who knows, they could have been rocks and nothing more. >> >> Shawn Alan >> IMCA 1633 >> eBaystore >> http://shop.ebay.com/photophlow/m.html > ______________________________________________ > Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html > Meteorite-list mailing list > Meteorite-list at meteoritecentral.com > http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list > Received on Tue 23 Aug 2011 08:00:01 PM PDT |
