Hi Mark,

The photos of this meteorwrong or meteorite look
pretty darn good to me, but I am less experienced than
you and most of the collectors and dealers on the
list. Would you share the clues that you used to raise
doubt? The text of the auction are certainly fishy,
but to the photos........

Would you critique the photos?

Thanks,
    Pat Brown in Eastern Washington
