[meteorite-list] Help! Need Wholesale Moldavite Source

Hello list,

Some of you may recall that I am selling meteorites and tektites to raise 
money for building an observatory at the Natural Science Center of 
Greensboro, in Greensboro, NC.  Things are going well for me.  Several list 
members have been very kind in helping me obtain a variety of specimens to 
sell at the various events where I am able to participate.  I cannot thank 
those people enough!

I have a nice, but small assortment of meteorites for sale, and I am in the 
process of replenishing some of my inventory.  Due to the fundraising nature 
of my work, table space at selling events has been provided to me for free 
(so far) which helps tremendously with expenses.  I am donating 100% of the 
proceeds when selling an item.

But once again, I need some help.  I have had several people inquire whether 
or not I had any Moldavite to sell.  Alas, I had none.  I am not wanting to 
purchase huge quantities, but rather, just a few nice pieces (12 pieces or 
less, in the 5 to 15 gram weight range each) to make available for sale.

But here is my BIG problem.  I would really like to get pieces that display 
the nice uneven Moldavite surface (that "sculptured" look) plus have nice 
translucency,  --- all at a wholesale price.  Of course, this idea may 
ultimately prove too expensive for my "budget," I may have to simply forget 
about Moldavite.

Could someone on the list either point me in the right direction to a 
reputable wholesale seller, or if you sell Moldavite, smile on me and my 
cause and offer to sell me some Moldavite at cost?

Of course, any "donations" will gladly be accepted <REALLY BIG GRIN>

If you can help, please contact me off-list.

Many thanks to all of you!!!!!

Ed Deckert
