An interesting looking rock. Since it is an active ebay auction, and the item # is posted, I'm moving to the ebay forum.

My first impression, looking at all of the photos, was that it is a coticule. But I wouldn't swear to it.

By looking at the auction its a Coticule I wouldn't get all excited about it since you can see some BBW showing on the top of the stone.

Here is a striped coticule I had and sold years ago. Glued to slate, not a natural. Was a recently harvested piece from Ardennes.

La dressante? Really cool stone

I'm going to be honest for some reason I was down for blowing that $300 to get this Stone (I never was the smartest cookie in the jar) but on the bright side hopefully now I have a chance...[emoji3]

The person who kept bidding up the original listing and then retracted was a real you know what.... This is a constant problem on usa ebay. I flat out told him to cancel my bid or scuttle the listing because he exposed my high and then anyone could have spite bid me a penny below mine at the last second.... He completely tainted the whole listing... Having second thoughts is all well and good but they bid like well over a dozen times... So not right....

He is a decent guy (the seller). Apparently, he has had a bunch of buyers try to do really shady stuff to him recently... It's why we can't have nice things, they attract every bad element on there...

That "your bid is a contract" is a lot of malarkey. They don't enforce it, and AFAIK, they never did. Even if a buyer ends up 'winning' the auction, they can back out with no punitive consequences from ebay. It is a shame that they let people get away with that sort of thing.
