Why does everyone keep putting hammer-stone in their descriptions? You do not have piece of the hammer-stone, so putting it in the auction title implies that you are selling a piece of the house hitting meteorite when you are not. Please correct the auction to inform the buyers that they are NOT buying a piece of the house hitting Sutter's Mill specimen.

Just because a single piece of this meteorite hit a house, does not mean every gram of the meteorite found can be considered a "hammer". That is a scam to rip people off.
People, this is why you MUST know and trust your seller. Greg Hupe and I have already been contacted by several known scammers trying to buy pieces of our meteorite. We are not responding. We put a premium price on the unquestionably documented meteorite which hit the house, was seen on BBC live and is not disputed by anyone. Don't be fooled by people selling you other material coat-tailing our specimen. We kept record of every speck sold and can trace them back to the buyers.
A meteorite of this rarity is likely to attract some unscrupulous sellers, know your source!
