I can not believe for the life of me why Ebay continues to allow such improbable and complete hoax's to continue....I almost think that they like the fraud....I wouldn't buy much from ebay from the bad company they allow to sell there. I shall not purchase from ebay unless I know the party from our list. I feel that the auction reflects very badly on the meteorite community and Ebay. Sincerely, David Freeman ( this may be forwarded to Ebay, if you can figure out how to get it there) John Gwilliam wrote: > Hello All, > Here's everyone's chance to get your very own meteorite from Antarctica. > I'm too busy laughing at this one to get angry yet. > > http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=574497494 > > The description says: > > "THIS IS A LARGE IRON METEORITE, IT MEASURES 3 1/4" X 2 3/4".
