[meteorite-list] Michael Cottingham

> Hello,

Hello List,

I chose this *one* word from Michael because it says a lot about him:

Michael isn't "wordy", "talkative", ... rather the oppposite ... would that
be called "close-mouthed" in English ? Not quite sure about the word.

> After selling about 7000+ meteorites through
> ebay, about 99.99% make it through ....

Like some other list members, I've got several dozen meteorites (and thin
sections) from Michael over the last few years and I got them all, complete,
well-packaged (double-packaged!), and among these were some really
extraordinary specimens at extremely down-to-earth prices in most cases.
Some minor quibbles on the one hand, but some hard-to-get meteorites
the purchase of which I will never regret on the other hand.

.. will continue to buy from Michael (wallet permitting ...)

My two Euro-sense,

Bernd
