Re: [meteorite-list] eBay meteorite and crater
Golly, Gee Whiz that rusty rock on ebay sold for $500.. Jeepers.. Gary, Richard, et al, all you folks asked excellent questions and did give him a fair chance and were helpful. The mysterious crater looks like a pile of brush and tree limbs.look at the dozens of pine cones all around it and across the top. Granny, Jethro, Ellie May, Duke, load up the truck, we're a movin' to the hills of Northern Nevada to look for dem dar meteorites. I feel kind of sorry for flying monkeys, he's either really stumped or really puttin' on a good act, since his spellin' is about as good as mine. Do I dare look at his feedback in about 10 days to see if we know the mystery winner who paid $500?? I hope it's real, but it does look like iron ore hematite. It's very similar to what Moqui Balls or Shaman stones as they are also called, that are found in the weathered areas of Utah around Escalante National Monument and in that area of Southern Utah and Northern Arizona. I wish all of you to find a new meteorite and have much happiness, peace, fame and fortune.

Re: [meteorite-list] eBay meteorite and crater
Hello All, The crater is typical in appearance of many mining prospects in gold rush country, and the stone itself appears to be hematite - there looks to be a nice seam of quartz running through it in some of the photos. If it is, it would actually make sense - the prospector who dug the hole might have thought that there could be other metal-bearing ores nearby. Sometimes you can find great stuff on ebay...sometimes not.

Re: [meteorite-list] eBay meteorite and crater
Gosh darn, Just to point something out with my detective skills ;-) ...flying monkeys feedback and feedback he has given show that he buys... Tactical Boots, since 10.5, desert boots size 10,,, knives and biker patches You can put the pieces together with what he has said on the auction and to the private emails he has sent. As I mentioned earlier it looks like iron ore hematite and Jason Utas mentioned he thought it was hematite too. Flying is in the Reno area so it would be nice if it were a meteorite, but I guess until someone gets their hands on a sample we can be safe in saying that it probably isn't, but that isn't my call. On the bids, you can see that a person with 15 feedbacks bid about every other second or so near the end and won it at $500. It only shows the amount of the highest bid though to us outsiders of the auction. When you see bids like that it meant he was bidding it above $500, for example $510, then 2 seconds later $520, $550, $600 etc. You can't see how high he went up to since only the highest winning bid amount shows, but whomever he/she was they really wanted it since you are not able to bid 12 additional bids at the same amount so that is why he bid it up in higher increments of probably $5-10 dollars when it gets above $500. Anyhow it's too late or too early. I wish you all well.

Re: [meteorite-list] eBay meteorite and crater
Hi Paul and all, Oddly enough I do keep copies of many of the U.S. wrong auctions going back about 7 or 8 years. Notable sellers of current suspect meteorites are listed here: http://meteorite-identification.com/updates.html Although many claim to have found their wrong in a 'crater', this is the largest and best photo of an eBay craterwrong. BTW, I would like to talk to the buyer If anyone knows who won this auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemitem=310205380871 Best wishes, ken On Fri, Mar 26, 2010 at 10:33 AM, Paul H. oxytropidoce...@cox.net wrote: In http://six.pairlist.net/pipermail/meteorite-list/2010-March/062531.html , Murray Paulson wrote: “Did any of you notice that the crater looks kind of fresh, but the meteorite looks far from fresh, more likely hundreds of years old?” The picture is at: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?VISuperSizeitem=180483766353 The “rim” of this hole is too high and complete to be a tree throw.

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.

Whaddya think?: The berm seems to be too high for an impact. I'd expect the material to have been thrown further from the pit and not built up that much immediately around the hole. The carancas crater didn't have as high of a berm surrounding the hole that I recall? The berm also reminds me of holes I've made while working a dry wash machine looking for gold in Big Bear, CA.
