[meteorite-list] How can we stop this

2006-07-05 Thread Walter L. Newton
Hi

This guy on Ebay has a meteorwrong on Ebay. It is SO wrong that he has been
contacted by other people, telling him that it is not a meteorite.

He emails me back and says since his description says it may not be a
meteorite, he is going to leave it listed.

I imagine that any one who emailed him was just trying to help, yet these
idiots insist on screwing the buyers.

It's a GEODE, I told him that, I have friends of mine that told him that.

I'm just ranting, just makes me mad. Sorry.

RE: [meteorite-list] How can we stop this

2006-07-05 Thread stan .


how are these people trying to screw buyers and why do they need to be 
stoped?


the auction does say quite clearly that they arent sure what the thing is 
and that they arent experts. they include a photo that would allow anyone 
who has more than 5 minutes of experience with meteorites to identify this 
stone as NOT a meteorite.


as meteorwrongs go this is probably the most innocent example as one can 
get. what you should really be worried about is the liked of the bcc 
meteorite peddlers out there who actually ahve a chance of pulling the wool 
over on someone...

No it has not been removed.  The link as originally posted does not work 
properly.  Try this one as it is shorter:
