If the seller has tried to mislead me with the 12K claim and he is off by half. We will negotiate.
    I didn't understand your statement about the Ebay reseller and the member being in collusion with him. You can elaborate if you care to.
    No collusion from our member as he is the one who Identified the stone here in the forum and told that he sold the hone to the re-seller.

    I get kind of sick of these guys that arrange photo's with just enough clarity to make you wonder , short descriptions that lead us on to "Is it"?? "Could it be an Thuringian?" ETC.

    Boy would I like to give some of them wall to wall counseling, maybe put their Nose to the Hone or vice versa.
    BUT, these days folks don't like a rough guy dealing with rip offs in the old school manner, they want to take them to court etc. GRRR.
