You still haven't adequately answered Kane's question. How can you say some are real, after asking us if they are fake? "Just making sure" does not answer this question. And can you really not tell that most, if not all of these are fakes? I don't think there is anyone who could mistake the first one for a real fossil. You should really study up on the fossils you are interested in purchasing, ... and compare the bone morphology from genuine fossils to those being sold. You will save yourself a lot of headaches by being able to distinguish real or fake from yourself. I would take this as a learning opportunity. After all, most collectors like to know about their fossils history and physiology. Most of the fossils you have been posting are fakes. Fakes are quite prevalent from China. It is a big business there, creating, carving, casting and faking fossils. Learn what to look for, and you will be better informed on what purchases to make.

MeargleSchmeargl Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Fake, fake, nothing but cringe-worthy fake! Whoever made these didn't even bother trying to hide it. Every single fossil you see is a miracle set in stone, and should be treated as such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
