Help! Re: [meteorite-list] (Vaguely OT) Letter of Commendation
Thanks for the good opportunity! A member of this list, from which I took a specimen from ebay and for whom perhaps it could be advantageous, if he would let the specimen get "lost" in mail, told me, after I asked him to send it fully insured and registered at my costs, that a insured and registered parcel is not possible from USA to Germany. Could please someone gave a short note here, that it IS possible without any problems? For him to read only. Many thanks!

Hi Martin, I sent that package to you last week fully insured and registered from the USA to Germany.

Re: Help! Re: [meteorite-list] (Vaguely OT) Letter of Commendation
Hi Martin & List, I do know that there are many strange circumstances for shipments to Germany. One method of shipping will eliminate a service (e.g. insurance) offered with another shipping method. The best way to find out is to check: http://www.usps.com It's usually pretty accurate giving quotes, but it depends on the postal clerks training qualifications also. Many times I get different answers from different people. This website might be very helpful for other list members outside the U.S. Just one of the many things a meteorite collector must consider. I hope it turns out well! Take care, Mark - Original Message - From: "Martin Altmann" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Monday, March 07, 2005 8:41 PM Subject: Help!

Hi all, I just received (yesterday 3/7) my Chassignite from Bruno's Earth's Memory in Aumont France. It was insured and mailed "prioritaire" on 2/28. And HAPPY I am that all went smoothly after reading some of the Horror stories some of you related on the list!!
