2006-10-08 Thread Dave Harris
..just had a thought - if one was to bid on at $13,000,000 item - would they be charged for the eBay fees even if I refused to pay? It'd be worth the bad feedback - especially if they had to cough the fees to eBay before getting them refunded due to buyer non-payment! Ideas? Best! dave IMCA

Hi, I am sure that this has been discussed before but... is it not an amazing coincidence that Kilabo and Thuathe fell so close to each other, both temporally and geographically? Can anyone confirm the classification of these two stones? I gather that they were not the same petrological type at

Hello and nice to be back, Firstly I want to thank all of you who gave me sensible possibilities for those mysterious possible meteorites. I have yet to go thru all of the mail to note down what the consensus was, but one thing I did note was that no one said they were not meteoritic - which
