[meteorite-list] look out for another ebay scam

I looked at his auctions and as usual cannot tell too much from the images.
He says he will provide images of the crystal pattern if requested. With the
amount of information provided I personally would not bid on one. If on the
other hand, an undeniable image of the Widmannstatten pattern where visible
and the story seemed to check out, I would make an offer on the entire load
and send a piece to UCLA for formal classification. I would also be prepared
to lose any money I risked knowing that I am dealing with an unofficial and
unclassified find.

Hope this helps,

Adam
