Late arrival to this thread.
Speaking of China rip offs, be very careful buying fossils from China. The Chinese government keeps a very tight control of fossils leaving that country. Most that you see listed on Ebay and other sites are fakes. Especially those lizard looking "fossils". China does however allow some beautiful mineral specimens to leave the country.
