I've been told another scientist that there is a better candidate that
this could be. ALHA76009 was a huge find with many pieces. The stones
had nice black fusion crust. Some of these pieces "went missing" after
they were brought back from the field. It too is L6. I tried to see
how we know that the ebay stone was H, but the listing is gone.

Something else that makes it a "suspicious" offer: ALHA76001 clearly is
an L6 chondrite whereas the one on EBay was offered as an H chondrite!
A typo? Maybe ...
