Friends,
Thanks for all of the responses to my "successful" bid on a "Martian" =
meteorite!!
=20
Armed with all of your emails as well as some legal support, I intend to =
pursue this Ebay fraud to eliminate this person from future postings (at =
least under his current ebay membership).
=20
If you wish to contribute any additional anecdotal, or first-hand =
experience with this seller please advise me. I'll add it to the ever-growi=
ng list of "interesting" emails that I intend to present to the Ebay =
corporate office!=20
=20
This seller didn't realize he might be taking on the State of Texas with =
this apparant fraud!
=20
By the way, we have NOT made payment, and are attempting to ascertain how =
to proceed with this without using an escrow service.=20
An email has been sent to the seller (glassface1) advising him that he is =
facing a serious problem!
=20

Ron DiIulio
