[meteorite-list] Classic eBay M-Wrong

[magellon]

Hi,
You have got to see this:   METEOR >From Deep Deep Outer Space
Lighten Picts  Photo#1   Photo#2    Photo#3
This is THE CLASSIC M-wrong. In an email the guy even told me "I found it the morning of the first night of the Band of meteorites passing
through Earth's path.  We were pelted in this area for several nights but I
am the only one that has reported recovering one."  Also, "Just in the short year that I have owned this I have answered questions, displayed, and shipped this precious object to all parts of the planet for viewing." Yet, I was the first person to ask if his find was attracted to a magnet. (He did not know and does not have a magnet)
Everything from the description to the photos looks and sounds  fake. When I ask a seller of a m-wrong if I can use his photo and description for my M-wrong Page, the dishonest ones (knowing their meteorite is a fake) usually say no or agree under  anonymity. This guy wanted publicity, so I'm convinced that he actually believes all the unbelievable stuff he is saying. That's incredible!
