Hi Dean, I see no problems at all. Such auctions provides only detailed information about phenomenons appearing in meteorites and they are not thought to stand up to other offerors or auctions.
If I'm already writing, I have a question: Benld hit a Pontiac Coupe, Peekskill a Chevy Malibu, Neagari a Subaru Leone 4WD, But what for a model was the Worden car? Meow?

About a year ago several people on a coin discussion group that I am a member of decided to try this and warn people about ancient fake coins and a couple got suspended from ebay. (Unlike meteorites Ancient Coin fakes are a SERIOUS problem on ebay). If you in any way imply that there are fakes listed on ebay and give ways to avoid them you could well run into problems with ebay (Ebay dont like you saying that there are fakes listed on their site). So if somebody else is planning to do something similar educating or warning potential buyers about fakes using "info auctions" be careful that you dont cross ebays "fake info" line. That being said my personal opinion is that this can be a good idea and as long as the text is kept in the positive and dont get to detailed on sellers it should be OK. (ie: Say this is how to tell a genuine meteorite" and not "If somebody in an ebay auction says this then it is a fake"). There is a fine line here and wither you get in trouble with ebay could well be dependant on who at ebay looks over the complaint.
