Hello Pekka and Nancy, If you are on ebay and see a 10g PF and are =
willing to pay top price of about $40 a gram, that is $400!!! If you get =
the PF and it weighs 1 gram you just paid $360 for a box!!! That is not =
right!!!!! Nancy, if you are so ANAL to think that's ok, I will sell you =
all the box's you want!!=20
Thanks, Tom

  Hello, Steve and the list,

  I have sent an e-mail to Carlos, but haven=B4t recived the reply yet. =
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=20
  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.

  I=B4ll inform you immediatly, when recive the reply from Carlos. I =
suppose, I=B4m going to Spain
  and Morocco this summer, so if this doesn=B4t work, I can show him, =
how to weight a meteo-
  rite and how to descripe the weight correctly in listnings. All this =
if I=B4m still alive after Siberia,
  I=B4m going to Irkustk in the end of June, and you can bet, it=B4s =
much easier to make deals in
  Sevilla than in Irkutsk...;-

  Nancys mail as follows;

>Pekka=20

>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. I also told >them not to be so anal. Which if I could =
translate that into Norwegian, which is about the only other language =
than English that I know a little bit of, I would! Some of the >folks on =
this list are downright obsessive compulsive!=20

>But it is good to know there are others, like yourself, who can see =
the reasoning for Carlos descriptions. And it is not fraud nor samming =
when he says it in the descriptions. >I think they need to learn to deal =
with it!=20

>Thanks. I don't know how to post to the list or I may have done so !=20

>Nancy Strand=20
>Petersburg, Alaska =20

  take care,

    Hi Pekka And List , Your statement............ This far as I =
know, the buyers, which have contacted Carlos, are all promised to get =
the
    missing part of their stuff, let=B4s hope, these are weighted =
without the packing-material...;-
      And now Carlos reply when I asked for the missing weight. I have =
sent 1 further email asking for the total missing weight NOT INCLUDING =
PACKING MATERIAL AND BOX... He owes my 85 grams still..............
                    =20
    Hello =20
     =20
    We thank your collaboration. =20
     =20
    We can send you another meteorite that weighed, with the included =
packing, about 62 grams. =20
    I believe that this it is the best solution, since us in our it =
paginates of ebay we explain that of the weight of the specimens =
clearly.
        =20
       So as you can see he hasn't promised the missing weight to me, as =
a matter of fact he states that he will send a 62 grams Including =
packing material and box.=20
          =20
        I have no reply to my last email requesting the total missing =
weight.=20
     Regards, Steven Drummond TUC :-) =20
