Hi List. For those who are unsure with the how's and why's and risks of 
buying meteorites on eBay especially those newbie's to the meteorite 
collecting world you can check out my Website page called "eBay Meteorite 
Info" This will help guide you so you do not have an ugly experience with

>> Hello Listoids.
>>
>> Recently a seller on Ebay ran meteorite auctions and refused to supply 
>> weights because he was selling aesthetics. He suggests you pop on down to 
>> the local market and buy some cheese if you want to purchase something by 
>> weight.
>>
>> Yesterday I found "mineralwold1". There are no weights included in his 
>> listings but he will supply some info if you inquire. Here's his response 
>> to an inquiry I made yesterday about items 270688649572 and 280612372239:
>>
>>> Hello,
>>> weight  20-25g
>>> and another piece 15-20g
>>>
>>> Thanks Alex
>>>
>>> -mineralwold1
>>
>> Does anyone know how I can enter a bid of 35-42 dollars?
