[meteorite-list] Disappointing meteorite purchases

[Michael Farmer]

Herman, 
thanks, I had forgotten about that! I know that
Germany right now, is a difficult place to ship things
to. I have had several items held up in customs for
more than 6 weeks since Jan 1st. 
It is odd how things get lost, then show up much
later. I wonder where they sit for all those months.
I just wish my 172 kilogram Muonionalusta would end
it's 6 month hiatus and show up at my doorstep. Anyone
who uses UPS supply chain solutions in Munich, well,
don't say I didn't warn you.
