Hi Michael. I am sorry to hear this but be patient. I purchased my
meteorite on March 24 and received it April 2, coming from Latvia. I was a
bit worried as well, but researched this Seller before bidding. Boy did he
surprise me! Not only was shipping fast (about 10 days) but it was packed
to withstand entry through the Earth's atmosphere. Not only that I had to
sign for it and it came in a very nice white square Gem case with a glass
front! My shipping cost was only $8! Anyways here is a link to my Gallery
of Meteorites Collection so you can go to the "C's" and you can see the
case and meteorite Chelyabinsk I purchased. Its only a 1.15 gm whole stone
100% crust, but its a beauty. Of course first thing I did when I received
it was place it to a neodymium magnet of which it took to. Be patient as I
have had to wait as much as 30 days on some of my collection. I do agree
its getting a bit long but it seems when I get edgy about it as I am sure
you are, that all of a sudden it arrives in the mail a day or 2 later.
Here is the link to my Gallery of Meteorites as I just added the
Chelyabinsk specimen the other day. Let me know Michael when it arrives.

Hello list,
I was curious how long it took for some of you to receive your meteorites
from Russia? The seller I purchased mine from stated that he sent it to
me on March 11, 2013, I have yet to receive it. I want to be prudent and
seek council from you before I make the decision to put a claim into
PayPal. It has been a little more than three weeks, could someone more
experienced in shipping to and from Russia please advise if I am correct
in being a little concerned or should I give it a few more weeks. I have
questioned my seller to this and have not received a satisfactory
response. Yes I know the danger of dealing with someone who is a new
seller, however since I used PayPal I felt assured that if it did not
work out I would be able to recoup my funds. Any advice would be greatly
appreciated.
Warm regards,
Michael Brooks
