And the website's About Us page says: Meteoritefragments.com is a British company that was originally formed in 1996 by Alexandra Douthwaite who graduated with a geological science degree at Edinburgh university in the same year. Since then the company has grown from strength to strength with a vast collection of all types of meteorites and is now one of the market leaders in the sale of genuine meteorite fragments.

Re: [meteorite-list] meteoritefragments.com
What is curious to me about this website, is that the owner is using my photos without permission. However, I allow use of my photos of meteorites that I have sold, to the person I have sold them to. This permission has no implied transferability. But I object most to this website offering a Winona meteorite fragment that I sold. It shows the exact same fragment, in a photo taken by me. The problem is that the fragment was sold to another person, who verified to me personally that they still have in their possession. gary On Dec 8, 2012, at 6:23 AM, Bob Loeffler b...@peaktopeak.com wrote: And the website's About Us page says: Meteoritefragments.com is a British company that was originally formed in 1996 by Alexandra Douthwaite who graduated with a geological science degree at Edinburgh university in the same year.

Re: [meteorite-list] meteoritefragments.com
Anyone else notice the completely incorrect captions associated with the photos? Can we just call this person out for what they are? SWINDLER. They sell cheap real meteorites to lend credibility to their more expensive fake stuff. Next question: how do we shut them down on eBay?

Re: [meteorite-list] meteoritefragments.com
Meteoritefragments.com is a load of something - and it isn't meteorites. Market leaders don't need to steal other people's photos without permission. And I don't care who graduated from where with what kind of degree - a degree just implies how big somebody's bucket is. It says nothing about what that bucket is filled with. Apparently they didn't teach intellectual property theft or plagiarism at that university.

Re: [meteorite-list] meteoritefragments.com
Hi All, I just checked again. My photos have been taken down and replaced with others. So, my personal dog is out of this fight. :) I still wouldn't touch anything on that website with the proverbial 10-foot pole.
