> In the past when I've gotten good customer service from a meteorite
> dealer I've posted kudos to that specific dealer. I think we should

> My thought was that the delivery would take forever or get lost or

> I recently had the priviledge of meeting Rob Elliot (Fernlea
> Meteorites) in the Chicago area. I found him to be a very down to
> earth, personable gentleman. He explained his shipping policies to me
> and I was quite surprised. He told me that orders from him in the

> I'd had my eye on a nice slice of Cumberland Falls on Rob's site for

> placed Sunday afternoon. Rob notified me that the specimen would ship
> Monday 7/22. The Cumberland Falls specimen was safely in my hands
> this afternoon Weds 7/24/ at 1:30 P.M. Central. Less than 48 hours
> from the U.K. to my front door. This to me is phenominal service.
> Packaging was above and beyond what was needed to ensure that the

> I know I was.
