Hi All,
Sorry for the OT but I reckon most of you will like this article. It is an
amazing event.
To try and get it on topic, mass extinctions from space are not soley just
a threat from meteorites.

Dan,
Nice to see someone who is not only interested in getting the best price but
understands that it is always best if both buyer and seller feel good about
the transaction. Being fair will always yield better results in the long
run.
I would agree that the seller made a mistake and really
Hola Darrison,
now off-list.
Certainly 50$ shiptment for 1kg from Europe to USA is way from discussion a
hge rip-off,
but if the BIN was 0.24$, one can't say anything against - one could think,
that it would be a special gimmick of the seller, to earn his bucks with the
shipment costs, making
its a exaggerated price the shipping, with 50$ I send
over 4 kg. of material, but if this is a shipping via
express courier the price its right - if the pack go
in USA - exaggerated if go in Europe

Norm's pretty right -- the deserts out here may be good for finding a

With my experience, I'd have to say that an experienced hunter will

There is no reason at all to think that the remote
