What ever happened to the lower cost  micromounts
that used to show up on eBay? The reason I ask is that
a few  years ago I built the diversity of my collection
with them and am still proud  of each one. I am now
spending more time in reviewing dealer's web sites  but
they seem to be few and far in between there also.
There  are a few dealers still selling them on eBay-
but I won't pay $4+ for a  priority box with a nickel
size meteorite inside of it. The small mailers  sent
first class always worked fine and I never had  any
problems.
Are the micro/macromounts no longer worth the  time
and effort to make and provide them? Or is it the more
common  material has ran its course and no longer
available? Maybe lack of interest  by buyers?
Seems most of the meteorite specimens now  being
sold are out of my price range (thats my problem). I
don't have any  specific "wants" at the moment (of
course there are always ones I would like  to have!)
but am just asking the question in general.

Thank you.  
Mike
