[meteorite-list] Ad - D'Orbigny angrite main mass for $225 per gram!

[Galactic Stone & Ironworks]

Good luck with the sale.  What an amazing specimen.

If you can finance me, I will buy it.  How does $500 down and $200 a
month for the next 60 years sound? ;) LOL

Just kidding.  Seriously though, good luck finding an appropriate home
for that spectacular mass. :)

Best regards,

MikeG
