[meteorite-list] Heritage auction

[Yinan Wang]

It appears that the big Lunar in Heritage's auction did indeed sell,
for $330,000 (including buyers premium). Bringing the auction total to
$1,066,000.

Prices were all over the place, some excellent, some poor but not a single item exceeded $50,000.00 even with the huge buyer's premium in place.  A few of my friends watched parts of this auction on CNN and thought many of the descriptions should have been based on the importance of the items instead of comparing them to famous artwork.
