Segnosaur Eggs Or Concretion?

Hi can I get some second opinions on whether if these are Segnosaur eggs or not? They seem to look like segnosaur egg pics that float around online, but they seem to also look very much like concretion stones. So I can't be sure how you can tell them apart. Anyhow here are the pics:

Specimen A:

Here is another, Specimens B:

Good to be cautious when buying anything from Asia. When it comes to eggs its not always easy but see if you can see shell material with its texture its a start. Then you need to determine if its natural or been fabricated from several specimens. Attached is a photograph of a real Segnosasur egg you can use for comparison purposes. Specimen A may be an egg but it looks to much like a concretion to take a chance, very smooth, pass on it. Specimen B is much better, there appears to be shell material on the broken side with little texture. Its promising and may be worth the risk if they price was right but still a gamble. If real both are not very good specimens. If you have to ask the question is it real then I would keep looking until the answer is clearly in front of you.
