Dear Meteorite Friends,

Hope you are all well!

I am liquidating part of my collection and selling it off in smaller more affordable lots of similar material.  A list of available specimens and lots follows below.
 
I do not have time to sell each individual specimen for maximum value, so I'm prepaired to take a loss to move these fast.

Many of these specimens are very hard to find. For instance, the NWA 5297 part slices are scarcely available anywhere. I bought up all of Greg Hupe's remaining pieces a number of years ago. The NWA 6291 Angrite thin section is likely the only of its kind.  

I am open to offers here, and am motivated to sell so please make an offer if you like.  In most cases my marked values for each lot represent a 40-50% savings below what you would likely pay were you to try and find these specimens individually.

I can send photos of the lots if anyone needs them. Please only serious inquiries. Please contact me off list.

Thank you for your time, and I hope everyone is having a great weekend!

Cheers,
John A. Shea
IMCA 3295
