Seriously, WHO would buy a $4.5M meteorite?

Maybe a $450 fake meteorite, or a $45,000 fake meteorite, but $4,500,000???

And then WHY would anyone do it?

IMO, it should only be illegal to sell a "metal container filled with a
black, greasy substance wrapped in carbon paper" as a meteorite if the same
law allows the buyer to be arrested for stupidity. <g>
