[meteorite-list] Shady dealings with Bob Evans and Steve Arnold!

[wahlperry at aol.com]

Hi Ruben,

You should know better to buy or trade with Bob! Another list member 
had problems dealing with you know who.I would just leave a negative 
reply on ebay so the word gets out. Like you said it will be up for 
sale in a week or two you might be able to buy it then.

Sonny

True Ruben,
Steve Arnold did make an extraordinary trade offer for the Canyon 
Diablo piece. One that I couldn't refuse.
He made it verbally over the phone and when I went to cancel the 
auction you had already bought the piece. I think it sold in less than 
20 minutes after the auction started.
So I apologize for not canceling the auction before you bought the 
piece.
I also apologize for Steve Arnold for rubbing salt in your wounds by 
displaying the piece on the " Rocks from Space Picture of the Day".
You have your money back and my apologies.

Bob
