What did the seller actually hand you besides the rock? I ask because paperwork is the whole ballgame with meteorites. A real piece should come with a signed label from a known dealer or a copy of a classification write up, and it needs a proper name like NWA 869 plus the find or fall location. Without that, it is just a rock with a story and you have no way to check it. I have bought two verified irons and both came with a dealer card and a photo of the specimen before it was cut. The lesson here is the $60 hurt less than the trust, so next time demand the name first.

Closets technically meet the legal definition for a bedroom in some states if they have a door and enough room for a bed, so the guy might not be totally wrong. Of course a hallway being a gym falls apart the second you try to put a squat rack in it.
