I can figure out the feelings of the customer, who feels, he or she has been fooled, and in these cases there is no need to discussion, if the seller doesnīt admit / correct his fault. In this case Carlos has admit the fault, now we have to get the underrestand the difference between a meteorite and packing-material...;- Anyway, I have also been in minerals some 20 years, and can also figure the good meaning of the system Carlos uses. The point is, the system is wrong in meteorites, and thatīs why it has to be fixed, think we can all aggree that. And as I told in my former mails, I belive, Carlos has just bought some meteorites from Morocco, and hasnīt though the difference with the other material he is selling. I also belive, the best way to handle this kind of situations is to negotiate with the seller (and now we have also the lanquaqe-problem) before using the heavy artillery. I really hope, we can handle this in a way, we can all be satisfied. take care, pekka Tom aka James Knudson wrote: > Hello Pekka, Thanks for your offer, but You should send it to Steve > Drummond, not me.
