Mark and list,

There is an artifact collector who goes by the name "I buy fakes".
Don't know if he's still using that handle but he would bid on fakes.
Other potential bidders would see his bid, and perhaps curious, click on
his "about me" ebay page, where they would find a dissertation on the
great proliferation of fake artifacts on ebay, and how to avoid them.
Perhaps 30% of Native American artifacts on ebay are fake, and this was
his way of doing his part to fight back.
Regards,
Charlie

Hello list and Mark,

Mark asked "well, hasn't someone bought from this seller now? Therefore, =
when the article arrives, it should be analyzed by one of our experts, an=
d a signed analysis submitted for mail fraud."

This seller also has no feedback. Perhaps the IMCA could create a eBay a=
ccount, like "fakemeteoritebuyer", "Ionlybuyfakemeteorites", "biddingonfa=
kemeteorites" or the like. I am sure we could keep a little fund going t=
o purchase the cheaper ones, then they could recycled back onto eBay like=
 John's auction......
