[meteorite-list] Mifflin Update... and Real Mifflin Photos...

[Jimski47 at aol.com]

Hi Michael and list,
 
Not all of the Mifflin photo's on the Met. Bulletin (IMCA Encyclopedia  of  
Meteorites) are of the real thing. I have three photos there. One  is a  
slice from Joe's main mass, another is a complete individual that  I  found 
during my five day hunt and the fake is the slice that I  purchased  from 
Greg 
Catterton. I contacted Greg C this morning to get  my refund and  have not 
received a response. I'll remove the photo  later. If you have one that  
looks 
like this, you've been duped.
 
Best Wishes,
Jim K

Hello,

Since Jason posted his discovery,  2 more pieces of "fake" Mifflin have 
been recovered. Taking into account cut  loss, I think I am almost certain that 
I have recovered 95% of the stone that I  was duped into buying.  I will 
not be 100% certain until all of the pieces  are returned to me.  Even though, 
I have not been 100% refunded for my  purchase, I feel it is important to 
refund people's money immediately or as fast  as possible and to get this 
fake crap off the market and into the trash can...  or maybe into a lawyer's 
hand! 

PLEASE NOTE:  If you have any doubt  about a Mifflin specimen you obtained 
from me ...PLEASE send me a photo so I can  confirm one way or the other. 
Especially ,if it does not look like anything in  the Met Bulletin below. Even 
if you did not get it from me, but just want a  second opinion... send me 
the photo. 

Here is also a link to photos of  Real Mifflin. Everything posted in the 
Meteoritical Bulletin entry is indeed  REAL  Mifflin.
