All, I am forwarding Mr.Dan Ray's (raylunar) well deserved "I Told You So!" When notified of the possibility that his first auction may be incorrect, he quickly canceled his auction. A very humble and honest response. Even after having some pieces verified as CD, Mr. Ray again, shut down his auction for a second time and followed suggestions. We simply do not always see this level of professional behavior on eBay. I too apologize for doubting his auction and making him go through so much trouble. But more importantly, I applaud and commend him for keeping his cool among a group of 'know it all' meteorite enthusiasts. Thanks for teaching us 'a thing or two'! Ken Newton
--- Begin Message ---Hi Ken, just thought I would drop a line so you could pass the word to others in your meteorite klan-I TOLD YOU SO!! All samples were positive for Canyon Diablo-and Russ forwarded me some very nice pictures and data involving them. Thanks for being polite when others were most diffenitly not, a couple threatened me with law suits, of course I told them to bring it on- -as I was very confident in what I had. Well my stomach is feeling better now, cause at one point I was even starting to wonder! I just wonder if a few are gonna have enough balls to write to say sorry?
thanks

I have contacted the fellow who bid, and he happens to be a old friend in California who knows my reputation. I will contact anyone else who places a bid, I mainly left it up for the na sayers. You are probably right, I am just being a little hard headed at this point, so please hang with me.
I put all the items in the mail back to NEMS this AM and sent some mail back and fourth to Russ, and he was nice enough to look at them for free for me to help clear the mater up.
Thanks Ken

Dan,
Sorry you are having all the trouble but I have always thought you were an honest seller. The steps you are taking will only verify that fact. No question - just a suggestion, you need to cancel the bid and close the auction before someone/others (who does not read fine print) also bid your auction.
Best,
ken
