[meteorite-list] AD - Auctions Ending Today and Personal Notes

[Adam Hupe]

Dear List Members,

Please take a look at the auctions I have ending this afternoon if you want to 
secure rare and valuable pieces for your collection.  I never run reserves and 
start most items out at just 99 cents incurring risks that are great. In most 
cases, this material has been selling seriously below my costs this summer.  I 
run these auctions for three reasons.

1.) To recover a portion of the enormous investment I have into this avocation.

2.) To share my enthusiasm for these rare specimens with others

3.) I believe that the public has the right to share in these rarities  
   
These auctions have been taking up a lot of time and making it difficult for me 
to get in as much field time as I like.  Once I reach my arbitrary goal of 
20,000 specimens sold this fall, I will reevaluate my situation, probably step 
down and enjoy other aspects of this great hobby.  I will then solicit the rest 
on my non-personal inventory for sale all at once or donation depending on an 
accountant's input.  I will keep you informed.  In the meantime, enjoy the many 
bargains that will be available over the next few months.
