Good Morning-
   This is probably a little off topic- but a comment
I would like to make to see if I am alone in this.
   When bidding in ebay or other on meteorites- there
is nothing more disappointing than someone that lays
out for the last few seconds and then outbids you with
a fast server. It does not give the previous bidder
any chance to reconsider their offer.
   I know it is fair to do this- but it seems to be
the same people always doing it. It really gives that
person a negative image to me.
   I am no better than anyone else- but I try never to
do this to anyone. I think it would be common courtesy
among meteorite collectors- especially of this list
and the IMCA, to never do this to each other. It would
build mutual respect among us.
   Just a comment- I hope all of you have a good
weekend.
Mike G.
