I have a problem and I'm hoping someone out there will be able to help = me out. I recently purchased some material which was described as = "Canyon Diablo Meteorites". Well, it turns out that I got a nice big = baggie full of shale that came in a box with no return address. Grrrrr. = I've kicked myself about a dozen times for not checking out my source = better. I feel like such a dope! Well, now this person refuses to let = me send the material back for a refund, even though I have nicely = explained why this material is not what I wanted and I am unhappy with = it. =20 Since I purchased the material with a credit card, I have decided to = dispute the charge with the credit card company on the grounds that the = material was misrepresented and that the seller refuses to take the = merchandise back for a refund. I am really hoping that this can be = resolved. Either way, I guess I learned a good lesson. The credit card company is asking for documentation explaining why the = material sent is not the same as what was described. I have surfed = around, but cannot find a good source for an article or explanation. I = found a couple little things but nothing that really says what I need it = to say in language that a non-collector (the claims person at Visa) = would easily understand. Does anyone know where I could find a source for this? Or would some = kind soul jot me off a paragraph I could use, and quote the source? If = anyone does provide me with anything, your name would only go to Visa, = not to the other party or anyone in the meteorite community.
