Hi Bernd & Eric, I think, it's because Eric's pages show up first, if you type in the search engines: "meteorites sale".
Note also that Eric's meteorite market was shown in the news clip about the new iron find in Goias, Brazil. Don't worry Eric, ignore. When came the new law into force? In January? They and not you have to prove, whether there was an illicit export and whether it happened this year. But there you can see that baleful development to more and more restrictions. Meteoritics is such a wonderful and important science, but without meteorites, it doesn't work. Bye, bye state-of-the-art-research. To me it seems, that all started with that propaganda article with those utterly false pretences by Schmitt & McEwen, which is still parroted here and there by some curators. Would have been better, if MAPS would have been peer reviewed then. Well congratulations, gentlemen. If that all continues, then science soon will have only the Antarctic finds (huh, 0.8Mio USD for 6 weeks on ice, 70 million for supplying McMurdo Station with sausages and fuel. Does anyone knows the budget of NIPR? Found only a very old one of 30 million a year) and the handful of weathered chondrites the university teams pick up on their adventure vacation trips. It's tax payers money, it's our money. A small step for hysteria, but a giant regress for science. At least one solace remains. In 50 years, an Afanasjev, a Vassiliev, a Sadilenko... will be venerated by the scientists, like today a Nininger, a Schreibers, a Daubreé, a Krinov....... While a Schmitt, a McEwen will have been long forgotten.
