[meteorite-list] Suspicious (ok, flat out fraud) Allende on eBay

[Adam Hupe]

I see he called it "ALLEDE" when he should have called "ALLEGED"  Unfortunately, his/her attitude is prevalent on eBay in other sectors.  It is just a matter of time when up to 40% of the offerings on eBay are misrepresented like the gemstone market which has been taken over by Chinese colored glass.  The Chinese tried to move into the meteorite market with iron ore but so far have failed due to the vigilance on the part of meteorite collectors.  Knowledge is key when collecting anything.
