He's a relatively wealthy snake-oil salesman (in my = opinion)/alternative medicine practitioner with a radio talk show in New = York that has taken an interest in Tektites and Meteorites. His modus = operandi is to gain your trust with smooth thousand dollar-plus = transactions, then call you asking for a top-shelf item to be sent by = next-day delivery. He will promise to send you payment on the same = schedule. When you call asking where the money is, he will blame his = staff and promise to take care of it. He will stop answering any = attempts to communicate, even from your lawyer. He will not return the = subject specimen. He nailed me for $8000. Be warned.=20 I can't tell you his name because of continuing litigation. However, if (in my opinion) his name resembles Dr. David Wheeler, and = if his address resembles Lake Oswego, Oregon, and if he has a radio show = in New York, (in my opinion) you would be wise to avoid business (?) = transactions with him. Bear in mind that any resemblance to any real = Dr. David Wheeler of Lake Oswego having a talk show in NY is pure = coincidence (in my opinion). I'm sure Dr. David Wheeler of Lake Oswego, Oregon, USA (if such a person = exists in reality) is a fine upstanding citizen. The evil (in my = opinion) guy that might seem to match his description, name, and address = is a crook and common thief (in my opinion). I hate being ripped off = and would hope to help avoid this for any of you on the list.
