Exclamation What Type of Orchid is this?

I was hoping someone could identify this for me. It came as a bonus plant with my order form ebay and I haven't had one of these yet. Could you please help identify the type so I can properly pot, feed and water this new 'chid.
Thanks sooooo much in advance.
I am really only familiar with phals.......

It looks like a Dendro. to me. They are easy to grow (for me anyway) They can tolerate low to warm temp. they like alot of light and fertilize once a month. The ones I have are in pot with coconut chunks They came that way and it is almost impossible to replace it. so I just put in a larger pot with bark mix and water when dry. Good luck

Candice, is that the plant you received from EBAY, if so it might have a little tag with a number on it that can be researched on the sellers site for the type and cross.

Shoot!!!
Even the tag doesn't suggest anything and I tried to line up the numbers to his ebay store tags....

it says X493 from Royal Orchid club......
I emailed him but no response as of yet!
