So sumbit your proof to eBay
Did you buy one?

Chinese seller.
Maybe comprehension is the problem.
Listing states -
This is what the villagers found in a remote river. Everyone said that this is a meteorite. I don't have a laboratory here. I can't be sure. Please buy it carefully.

Who knows - probably not.
They just didn't read the listing.
The seller is upfront about it being a meteorite...or not.

You need to read the description before buying. The Seller has described it fully. If you did not read it then you only have yourself to blame. Get it tested to find out if it is real, and then don't complain if it is not, because you were told it was only hearsay. However, it looks very real to me, and is one type of meteorite that featured in a program recently on TV. You could also visit your local museum and see if any there look like yours.
