Hello all, Regarding Donnis and LUNAR LEGACIES, He is one of the most upstanding dealers of this type material I have dealt with! Yes he is in business but he also shares our infatuation and respect with regards to the space program and its astronauts!I for one believe if donnis did post this item it was an honest mistake!!! THERE ARE MANY DISREPUTABLE DEALERS BUT DONNIS IS NOT ONE OF THEM, AND AS FAR AS A GOOD FELLOW HE HAS BEEN MORE THEN FAIR WITH ME AND MY DEALINGS WITH HIM! PLEASE LET THIS END HERE AND NOW

Donnis,
I can say unequivacally you are one of the best out there. You made a mistakee, and you recrtified it, with class and aplomb as always. This shows your integrity and took great courage to do so and publically say so.
You've done nothing more than enhance your already fine reputation with me.

I med Donnis briefly a few years ago when he still lived in Satsuma. I was just getting into collecting and he helped me a lot providing guidance and explaining things. Let me hasten to add no money changed hands. In fact he have me some lithos to get signed. A few months ago I renewed our acquaintence after his move to the Space Coast and he helped me some more with detail info on mission patches. If everyone in the hobby was as interested in helping others as Donnis is as opposed to turning a buck we'd all be better off. This is a good man who made a question- able judgement - get off his back.

Each of us who is interested in buying and selling Space Memorabilia has to make up our own mind. Personally I find it distateful for anyone to be selling Columbia memorabilia as some unfortunate people have no idea of the usual price of such items. However .... there is the old phrase "Something is only worth what somebody is prepared to pay for it" (I will buy my STS107 patch at KSC next time I'm there ... the last patch I bought cost $4.50. Why should something made by the thousand cost any more !
