Hello
Friends everyone buy what he want and what he can pay. Bingol is great fresh
meteorite with excellent crust. For sure worth to buy. But as history show,
in a few months there will be another super cool new fall, maybe diogenite
and what will happend with Bingol ? It will be forgotten. Like first Chellys
sold for hundreds per gram it turned to 5/g now. Same with Tissint and may
other. Mike make great sales becouse everyone is crazy on Bingol now. When
something new will fall, marker crazynes will go to the new material.
