[meteorite-list] AD: Major Sale....Everything For Sale

[MARK BOSTICK]

Hello Everyone,

Over the next month, two months…not sure how long this will take, I am going 
to sell off the majority of my personal collection including many of the 
choice pieces.  Because of family need and since I really have a LOT of 
meteorites and related.  I am going to sell off enough of the collection to 
buy a small home locally.  Houses are pretty cheap here so I hope this only 
take about half my collection.  Even then I will still likely be tripping 
over meteorites and related.  I tend to go a little overboard on everything, 
which is why my old handle was "The Big Collector".

So that means anything is up to grabs….untill I raise the funds I need.  
Main Masses, Thin Sections, Artwork, Books…..feel free to make an offer on 
something I have and I will try to start listing seveal dozen items on ebay 
every night.  I will note these items Collection Piece, Collection Item or 
the like.

Again, I am not going anywhere, and should be more eletronically active in 
the next several months.

I estimate 800-1000 different meteorites in collection, 100 thin sections, 
400 books, 300 postcards, 200 tektites…up to 400g, 200 article reprints and 
more.  Meteorite Roman Coins, Meteorite collectibles..

Oh yeah….and impactite.  I only know three people with larger impactite 
collections.  Several noteworthy pieces…like the only shattercone known from 
Brent crater, a double shattercone, larger impactite slices and the like…in 
the 1-2 kg. range from several meteorite structures.  This is really a 
musuem collection.

Basically……anything meteorite related.  As I was saying I tend to go 
overboard on things.  If I was to sell 90% of my collection I would still 
have what many would consider an advanced collection.  I am only planning on 
selling about half or a little more.  I need about $30,000-40,000 more then 
what I have.

Interested in something I have let me know, the photo gallery on my website 
gives you some ideal of what I have…..
