Aloha list members,

Ebay buyer abrams62 pulled the same stunt on me. At first he asked for separate invoices for each item, which he stated he would pay separately by different sources. Then he asked for me to ship out the meteorites he won in auction COD, to be paid after he looked and "approved" them.

Uh, I don't think so. Now he wants ownership certificate / title of each meteorite from an expert in the American (sic) Musiem of natural history. Well, thats not going to happen, and because payment has not been remitted, he has joined a motley assortment of blocked bidders I have created. If you want to share lists of blocked bidders, email me off list. Mahalo nui and have a great day.
