Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] I will no longer ship to Italy using paypal
Francesco,
I am just tired of losing my money. I work hard to
acquire my meteorites, and doing hundreds of ebay
auctions a month is a full-time job. To see 40 or 50%
of items I send to Italy continually vanish is just no
longer acceptable. I do not know or care where the
problem it, but it is clearly on the Italian side. I
am not the only one with the problem, it has been
ongoing for years. I am simply no longer willing to
throw my meteorites and money away by risking shipment
to Italy if the meteorites are paid for via paypal.

Hi All!
As you know I'm Italian so I think I have the right
to tell you my 2cents!
1) Naples and the rubbish (OT):
Maybe most of you don't know nothing about the
rubbish situations in Naples
and the near cities.
This is the situation:

http://images.google.it/images?gbv=2&svnum=10&hl=it&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Ait%3Aofficial&q=napoli+immondizia&btnG=Cerca+immagini
About 130.000ton of the rubbish on the streets!!!
The fault is the Mafia, corrupt politicians and a
lot of other people
interested in the rubbish businnes.
It's very humiliating that this is the image that
the other countries has
about Italy and about Italian people, so I write
this e-mail.
2) Italian situation (OT):
As you know Italy is a long and thin country, long
about 1000km from north
to south.
You have to know that there are HUGE and HUGE
difference beetween the
northern regions and the southern regions.
Many people who live in the northern Italy think
that the south Italy looks
like Third World, like the poorest and worst African
Country.
Who live in south Italy look at the northern like a
paradise on earth! A lot
of people leave the cities in south for search a
better life and work in
north.
I'm so angry when someone from the other country
think that the Mafia is
present in Italy!!! Mafia is only in the south and
biggest problem of my
country comes also from the southern regions!
Billions of Euro every year leave the northern
regions for the south Italy,
for try to resolve the dramatic situation, but all
this money goes in the
pocket of the Mafia :(
When the political class will change I hope a lot of
problems will
disappear!
So please when you insult Italy and the Italian
People for Mafia and
organized crime, remember that in Italy there are 2
different Italy!!!
A rich and beatiful north and a poor and really
problematic south!!
3) POSTAL PROBLEM:
I'm so sorry to read that the post from USA to
Europe (and specially to
Italy) go lost in a lot of cases!
In the last 2years I have sent and received a lot of
packages, about 100.
Only one letter sent to Germany went lost...
At now the person how sent something to me have
never lost anything, I have
had some trouble only with a couple of letters...
Actually I'm waiting for 5 meteorites...I hope they
are on the way :D !!!
I don't know the cause of these lost and for the
huge delay, i think the
situation has worsened in the last few month.
I live in a little city, about 100.000 inhabitants,
in august there were
about 25ton of post in local postal office, nobody
knows what really
happened and why!
6 month ago a package took about 15days for the trip
from USA, now I know I
have to wait 4-6weeks.
But for example Greg Hupe has sent me a box on 29.15
and it was arrived on
14.01!
Some month ago I send a meteorite to Boston and the
trip took just 8days
with the normal post, just 0.80â,¬ of shipping cost!
The trip of a letter from Germany took 3weeks...
I don't think there is corruption of the postal
service...I think it's hard
to say where is the problem.
I hope in the future the problem disappear so we
(European and Italian)
could buy from the great USA dealer without problem!
Ciao
