Hello List, In my defense, the IMCA states;

"The single purpose of this association is AUTHENTICITY. That is, to make
certain that ALL our members adhere to the highest standards of meteorite
identification, authenticity, and proper labeling practices. This is done
via "self monitoring". We, the membership, monitor each other's activities
for accuracy, and it is every IMCA member's responsibility, and pleasure, to
offer help and assistance to other members to assure this accuracy occurs"

"proper labeling practices"? When there is a ebay add saying something is
"huge" I think that is improper labeling.  If 144g' is huge for a GB, then
what are these two, giants? (also note, less than $1 per gram)
http://www.nyrockman.com/pages/sale-goldbasin-groups.htm

If these two are giants, what would you call the 3000g main mass?

And the part;
"We, the membership, monitor each other's activities for accuracy, and it is
every IMCA member's responsibility, and pleasure, to offer help and
assistance to other members to assure this accuracy occurs"

I think it is my responsibility to do!

Thanks, Tom

I agree Dave,

I currently listed a Campo for sale on ebay see

I used words such as Huge , museum quality, beautiful , etc. simply to
entice potential buyers ... not deceive them.
Yes they are all my opinion. One may consider it huge another may consider
it small  . It doesn't really matter , many will perceive the item
differently.

However I will never use the words " average , marginal, kind of nicely
shaped, Ive seen nicer, not much crust , teeny tiny , garage sale quality ,
etc. in any of my meteorite auctions.
Unless I wanted to waste my money on ad submission fees.

Just my opinion

Sometimes I feel that this list is becoming one big Spanish Inquisition!!! 

There's a Monty Python skit somewhere in there somewhere, but it just won't come out !

Hey, ya know, thats kinda how I felt about the reports I had to do in
school. Reword this, I don't like that.
And, of course, don't even get go to the gramatical errors that always seems
to become bigger than the rest of the print when the prof saw it.

Brother. Geez, don`t use the wrong wording or heaven
forbid list something that isn`t quite kosher to some
