[meteorite-list] AD-Large (?) Rare Specimens-Still No Reserves!

[Adam Hupe]

I consider anything over 200 milligrams (1 carat) large for planetary material, 
some with a Total Known Weight of only 26 or 42 grams as is the case with a few 
pieces. A 388 milligram specimen is almost 2 carats.   I don't see anybody 
listing 2 carat diamonds starting at just 99 cents and this material is millions 
of times rarer.

I am not trying to mislead anybody.  These are very large specimens for most 
collectors and will not disappear into thin air if one sneezes.  I do not see 
anybody else listing pieces this large without protecting them with some kind of 
reserves.

I guess it is just a matter of perspective.

Best Regards,

Adam

Hi Adam,

When I saw your post for "Large"  rare specimens starting at 99 cents, and no 
reserves, I was starting to get excited, my mouth salivating at the 
possibilities..... 


Then I saw that the largest was only 388 milligrams and all the others were even 
smaller.  Oh Well.  Maybe next time.
