Dear Andreas Gren & list,

and what does all these stories teach us?

Meteorites NEVER prefer the straight way.

Ok I have a story from Europe.
A customer in Italy bought a slice of Uruacu via e bay, three weeks later he asked if his slice is already shipped, it was of course. So I have send a second slice to the costumer. 10 days later I got an e mail , that both slices arrived the same day in the post pox of the costumer. One package with a sticker "Royal Post" ,so the package made a small trip to Great Britain, why not? Great Britain is also an interesting place.

Walter
Sorry to hear that
I was at Denver on 9/11, and had to ship 5 boxes with stones (up to 20kg
each) back to Argentina.
I was afraid that they will be lost, but fortunately all arrived safe,
even more, they were some of the faster shipments I had. They took about
3 weeks for a surface shipment.
Normally takes 1.5 monthes to a record of 5 monthes to arrive. This
record one arrived 2 monthes after I made a claim, so it seems it was
delayed in some of the post offices and when the claim arrived to that
office the box was found and sent.

Hello Everyone,


Not long after the 9/11 attacks here in America, I sent two large irons
to
Norway and Philedelphia.  They never made it.  What was I thinking?  I
was
trying to send two large chunks of iron across America and across the
Atlantic Ocean.  I can only imagine the anxieties the packages must
have
produced when the x-ray machines were sounding off like crazy.
