AW: [meteorite-list] My Eyes Are Glazing Over- Need "Scorecard"

[Bernhard Rems]

Oh, is it, that "serious collectors" don't accept NWA in their
collections?

Or is this rather some shitty snobist attitude?


Thank you for calling me a "non-serious collector". :-(

Well, this is one reason, why some serious collectors don´t
accept NWA:s in their collection.

I´m stil wondering, to be or not to be...;- Anyway, not the
best way to advertise these beauties - to make them as the
easter-eggs.
