I sent an e-mail to the NASA Johnson Space Center regarding the supposed "authentic" Apollo moon rock that is not a meteorite with the link to that Ebay auction.

Here is the first reply that I got:
--------
Dear Steve Schoner:

Your query was forwarded to me. The rock for sale on eBay is/was not a real Moon rock.

Sincerely,

I might get a few more responses as I sent a couple of e-mails out to other NASA departments that handle Apollo moon rocks.
