[meteorite-list] Venting.

[Dave Schultz]

  Greetings. This is something that has got under my
skin a bit this past week, and need to do a little
venting, even though it might bring some people down
on me. After being in Tucson at the show a couple of
weeks ago, and spending a bit of time in Bob Haag`s
room, and seeing the great sales that he offered to
people, including myself. I`m just amazed that these
same people are now turning around, selling thier
specimens that they got from Bob, and using HIS NAME
to make a profit from these purchases from him! I know
that this is probably just business, but seems a
little unethical to me. They are not bad people, but
just seem a bit too greedy! I know of a couple of
pieces that other collectors would have liked, but
were gone before they even had a chance at a great
deal, specimen and provinance! Hopefully this kind of
practice does not affect future deals from certain
individuals, and REAL collectors can benefit from the
these kinds of sales, and appreciate the specimen for
what it is, and not  something to make money on.
There, that is all I have to say on that, and I WILL
NOT be selling the pieces that I got from Bob!
                                              Dave
