[meteorite-list] [ebay] ending in about 2 days

[stan .]

Adam,
I will avoid the use of your name in my auctions from here on out unless I 
have some specific reason to do so (cant think of one off the top of my head 
but I'll just leave the possibility open) - but i will NOT refrain from 
posting information about possible pairings. either official or otherwise - 
provided they are properly qualified to prevent any possible 
misunderstanding. I belive not providing this sort of information to the 
collecting public does a disservice to the entire meteorite collecting 
community.

In the context of this conversation if I am wrong about the pairing then the 
pieces I am offering are from a unique low TKW non vessicular angrite - and 
as such would be much more valuble (as i only have maybe 6g total of extra 
material to offer). conversely if the suspect pairing is correct and i DIDNT 
disclose it a collector would quite possibly be disapointed to know that the 
material has an effective TKW in the KG range (an order of magnitude more 
than the mass of my piece) and is avalible from multiple sources other than 
me.
