I tried to make clear, the meteorites is a different thing than minerals, and he has to give exact weight of them in the description, WITHOUT the packing material. Got an e-mail from Nancy Starnd from Alaska, and perhaps this also tells, in minerals is important to know the total weight of the parcell to figure the shipping. It makes no sence to bid for piece some USD 2.00 and then pay USD 20.00 for the shipping. But this is in minerals, not in meteorites. Iīll inform you immediatly, when recive the reply from Carlos. I suppose, Iīm going to Spain and Morocco this summer, so if this doesnīt work, I can show him, how to weight a meteo- rite and how to descripe the weight correctly in listnings. All this if Iīm still alive after Siberia, Iīm going to Irkustk in the end of June, and you can bet, itīs much easier to make deals in Sevilla than in Irkutsk...;- Nancys mail as follows; >Pekka >I just sent Tom and Mike each a msg telling tehm we "rock" buyers appreciate knowing the weight with packaging so we can figure postage into our bidding.
