[meteorite-list] Lost packages

[Bob Evans]

That Sucks Mike,

Remember when I was accused earlier this year of never sending a $1000 
payment to Stefan Ralew?
I sent a money order and apparently it never got to Stefan.
I have no reason to believe that Stefan received the money order. But he and 
Martin Altmann accused me several months later of never sending payment.
I couldn't track it , the stub was long gone by then.
I didn't appreciate the attack on my character. You know I always paid every 
cent for every meteorite I bought from you over the years.
After the incident with Stefan, Im very cautious with international 
transactions.
Germany seems to be a hotspot with problems.

Its not your fault that the packages weren't delivered. Demand buyers pay 
registered rates in the future , or , no sale!
