Dear List,
  If you take the time to look at Mr "Bob"`s email and
eBay you will notice that he ranks up there with the 5
Ducks, and the other seller`s from China,Vietnam,
Singapore, Thailand.
  Many of these so-called "Nantans" are iron
concretions and have nothing to do with ever being a
meteorite. His other items, "Libyan Glass", have been
discussed on the list prior.
  Before you start sending off your hard earned money
to these "Bargain Sellers" think about it. I am sure
"Bob" has a real name that he avoids giving for a very
good reason.
  Best Regards, Dirk Ross...Tokyo
