Im wondering what the rules are for buying fossils in China. My best friend is a pilot and is getting up graded to the 777 and he said one of their destinations is Beijing so of course my first thought was "Hey you can get me some Chinese Fossils", but I dont know if its legal or not and I dont want him to get me any if its not.
