Phil,
Some poor sod has it bid up to $325. Ouch! Looking at the size of the other trees, If this is from a fallen tree it would be huge. Could there have been a tree that much larger than the others there? Maybe But,
The guy refused to file an end to show the interior. This in spite of the fact that I assured him he would get a lot more money if he showed us the interior. I am certain by now he knows it is not a meteorite. Carl
