Hi Werner, Welcome to the List. :)
The seller obviously doesn't realize or care that by selling an Australian meteorite on the open market, he/she may be breaking Australian law. If a bidder from outside the country wins the auction, the seller is forbidden by law to ship the item outside of Australia's borders without an export permit. Of course, this item is NOT a meteorite, so the law doesn't apply.
