Dear list,

Recently thee was a thread regarding a slice and individuals of
Estherville for auction on ebay. The consensus was that the samples wee
not meteorites. In fact, the seller offered a slice of this material in
an earlier auction and is presently offering more. In both the earliest
and latest auctions I notice ebay handles of people who regularly bid on
real meteorites.
In order of earliest to current, the second being the one discussed
earlier on the list, and the current being a relist of the second(?):

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item+2161433327

This seller seems to be doing OK for themselves......

Best wishes,
Charlie
