Re: [meteorite-list] New conflict concerning the Grefsen mass of the Oslo meteorite
'Meteoritical decentralization' or 'research sabotage', that is the Norwegian question ... (But is that really the question???) The conflict about the Grefsen mass of the Oslo meteorite between Ødegaard and Sannes and the Natural History Museum (NMH) in Oslo continues and raises some basic questions: http://translate.google.de/translate?sl=autotl=enjs=nprev=_thl=deie=UTF-8u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nordlys.no%2Fnyheter%2Farticle7000739.ece Original: http://www.nordlys.no/nyheter/article7000739.ece Martin -Original-Nachricht- Betreff: [meteorite-list] New conflict concerning the Grefsen mass of the Oslo meteorite Datum: Thu, 31 Oct 2013 13:02:51 +0100 Von: karmaka karmaka-meteori...@t-online.de An: met-list meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com New conflict concerning the Grefsen mass of the Oslo meteorite http://translate.google.de/translate?sl=autotl=enjs=nprev=_thl=deie=UTF-8u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nrk.no%2Fkultur%2Fkritiserer-roed-odegaard-1.11325245 Martin Postfach fast voll?

Re: [meteorite-list] New eBay fraudster
Aloha Mendy, Thank you for your diligence in finding and reporting suspect meteorite sales. The meteorite shown in the ebay auction is one that I sold to a well respected scientist in Europe (who also happens to be one of the subjects in a recently published book on the history and science of meteorites) on Thursday, November 21. BTW, the meteorite is NWA 7940 L3.15 and my original listing can be seen here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemitem=231095724642ssPageName=ADME:L:EOISSA:US:1123 The seller of the same item, musicbusiness23 has a feedback of 2 and lives in Norman, Oklahoma. http://www.ebay.com/itm/A-Piece-of-the-Moon-/151170570887 I doubt the true owner of the meteorite has it in his hands yet - its still in transit. But what musicbusiness23 is selling is clearly NWA 7940, and specifically the 2.69g full slice. Not lunar. This is clearly a fraudulent listing. Ebay has been notified and a report made, but ebay’s system does not provide a means of submitting text. You can only click very general options. So, I contacted the seller and let him know that I am onto his scam and he should cease and desist. We’ll see if he takes my advice. gary On Nov 24, 2013, at 7:58 AM, Mendy Ouzillou ouzil...@yahoo.com wrote: Someone selling an OC as a lunar.
