I have always thought that certain items could not be sold to non U.S. residents and also could not be shipped outside the U.S.Lot 4, a flown shuttle tile, is originating in Germany. Is this a legal sale of a flown shuttle tile or does this auction violate ITAR just by the tile's presence in another country? |

The auction itself doesn't violate ITAR, but the original owner may have been in violation, depending on how it was obtained and exported. |

The tile may have been exported before ITAR was imposed on space shuttle hardware, which I believe started around 1999 (based on Wiki article). Like closing the barn doors long after the horse has left the barn. | |
