Hello Norm, Pete and everyone,
 
I got those pictures too, and so did Alain Carion. And multiple  times.
And we noticed that all the pieces were dripping wet, so they would look  
more transparent and sparkle in the sunshine.
So we decided to pass on his offer. Like Norm said: if it looks too  
good.........

Pete,

Thanks for the heads up on this  guy.  He has been
trying to seduce me (off list) with offers to sell  the
same material now listed on ebay for very reasonable
prices.   Something spooked me though---the prices were
a bit too good and he was a bit  too persistent.  With
nothing more than a gut feeling that something  wasn't
right, I declined the deal.

As always, buyer beware out  there.  If it's too good
to be true---you know how it goes.

Buy  from those you know and  trust.

Cheers,
Norm
