Those auctions also include as usual a number of nice ordinary chondrites for which we indicate their magnetic susceptibility (LogX) that has been measured by Pierre Rochette with SM30 device. LogX gives a good idea of the type of OC that we may have and you can have a look at our web page that provides a diagram on which you can evaluate the kind of meteorite according to its LogX and compare to the values for terrestrial rocks:

Some of the OCs that are on ebay at the moment are nicely fusion crusted and I will mention some of them:
