Trilobite off auction site
JGandy posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hey there, This is literally my first fossil purchase and I know very little. Got this little dude off an auction site from a fossil seller who had a 100% out of several thousand reviews and I feel like something is off about it. I have a Mosasaurus tooth coming from this same seller so I'm a bit nervous if this does turn out to be a fake. What do you all think? Thanks! -
Hello, I am considering buying a really nice fossil, unfortunately there are no "interesting" shops nearby, so I'll have to look online. Do you have any recommendations?

Throwing Shade When you look at beautiful fossil leaves, have you ever wondered what the forest was like? Was the leaf from a tall tree, hogging the sun at the top of the forest? Or did it grow in the understory, in the shadows of big trees above? Perhaps we can figure that out. Please join our next online meeting of the DPS at 7pm on Wednesday, October 14th, when we will hear how to “see the forest from the leaves”. Joe Milligan, PhD candidate at Baylor University, will speak on "Sycamores shine a light on ancient canopy structure”. Joe has a BS in Environmental S

Hi!! As wide as the internet is, I've found quite a lot of sites where, apparently, dinosaur fossils are sold. I've found a particular site in which there are Deltadromeus Agilis teeth. My question is: ¿Is this, you know, real? ¿Is it a fake? At least, it looks real on the image. Thanks to anyone who answers this post!

Hey Everyone! I've really come to appreciate all the help and support that this community offers. I feel privileged to live in a time and place where it is so easy to stay connected with others who share interest in our pursuit to uncover the mystery of deep time. I suppose that I should start off by introducing myself in case you haven't had the pleasure yet. So. Here goes: Hi! My name is Nicholas Perlenfein. I’m a student at College of the Redwoods currently pursuing an AST in Geology. I have an intense interest in studying fossils the genesis of which lies very early

Is this Megalodon Tooth fake?
BluDevil posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hello! I'm a pretty new collector, and I'm currently looking to purchase a Megalodon tooth for myself. They've been a dream of mine to have for a long time now, so I'm happy I might finally have a chance! I took a glance at a few websites, and found this. Is it real? Is it fake? (And, whichever it is how can you tell?) -
Red flags on "fossils"
indominus rex posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Today I was scrolling through our favorite auction site when I spotted this, I immediately noticed something was off just looking at its title, this piece was being listed as a dinosaur skull with jaws, it already had quite a few people bidding for it. It was quite clearly not a dinosaur skull, I messaged the seller and I feel like he shouldn't list this and label it as something that is extremely desired by any fossil collector(and possibly illegal depending on where it was found). Regards, indominus rex -
Hello, I found this vertebra for sale online. I was wondering what animal it belonged to, my first thought is bison but it could be something else. The seller says its from deposits of the northern sea from a Pleistocene deposit. It's 22 cm in length and is 8,5 cm wide. That's all the information the seller gave. Please feel free to leave any remarks as to what it can be.

Fake? Dinosaur Eggs For Sale
Trilobiting posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Found these online. I suspect they're fakes. Beware. Not surprising if they are fake, besides, they're from China. (not saying that all fossils being sold from China are fake.) -
Where to buy real fossils (USA) and top grade replicas?
reptileguy posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
I'm pretty new to fossil collecting, however I'd like to dive right in. I've been looking at the FossilShack, however I was wondering if there are any other reputable dealers within the US? I've heard eBay is a great place, but I don't know which dealers to avoid, does anyone know of any? I'm also interested in buying an authentic looking replica for a friends birthday. I don't want to pay a fortune (college student), but I'm mainly looking complete skulls and claws. Thanks! -
Gone to youtube in hope of showing newbie how working with fossils and tools look like however not many videos like how to drill or work on certain fossils from scratch. Anyone know of any full length videos people can watch ?
