I agree Geoff, those are some awesome pictures!
I hope i can get to hunt in some wild places
like that some day.
I have a lot of good shots I've taken while
meteorite hunting.
Most are in my monochromatic album.

What I like about meteorwrong eBay auctions, aside from the atrocious
spelling, are the out of focus, poorly lit photos. The descriptions are
generally pretty funny too.

Hi Phil and List,
I think you could post pictures of a burnt chesseburger on eBay and get a
100.00 for it.

I'd have to agree with Phil here. The meteorwrong listings on eBay do
provide some humorous diversion when trolling for potential
acquisitions. But that listing Michael Groetz posted earlier has to
take the award as the one with the most atroshus speeling an
grammer. ;^)

have checked it with a regular magnet, and it seems like it may be
slightly magnetic...But I don't have a rare earth magnet, just a

I have a question to the List: this is based on a number of meteorites I have
purchased, which include the achondrites. I have noticed that the mineral
components (Olivine, Pyroxene and other crystals) in some of my achondrites
have a very adamantine luster in the mineral components.
Geoff:
Very nice - beautiful photos. Very interesting wildlife.
Thanks for sharing.

Michael,
It does look like a possible meteorite.
I like the flow lines in the third photo but $33.00 more than I would risk to
find out unless they showed the filed area.
In future if I were you I would ask for a nickel test and a density test. This
is THE easiest test to do. Simply need a
Hi List,
In light of the current economic weather we're combining EVERYTHING we
have listed right now on Ebay and our website and putting a BUY ALL
price on it.
Some of these pieces are from our personal collection. Pieces we really
don't want to let go, but we must.
This guy has been selling a wide variety of assorted fakes over the
last 2+ years. He occasionally sells a real meteorite to make things
interesting. But the majority of his specimens are dubious at best -
including some bogus lunaites. I seriously doubt these are West
meteorites, or
