RE: Tried some outdoor shots today - 6/7/2006 1:54:50 AM    JGUIS   Posts: 1704 Joined: 3/18/2006 From: New Lexington, OH Status: offline I'm also thinking of selling all the unembossed milks at a neighbors yard sale soon.  What should I ask?  I was thinking a dollar per 1/2 pint(2=pint, 4=quart, 8=half gal.) is that too much? Or just 1 dollar increments? _____________________________ A pipe gives a wise man time to think, and gives a fool something to stick in his mouth. (in reply to JGUIS) Post #: 4

RE: Tried some outdoor shots today - 6/7/2006 3:43:11 PM    capsoda Posts: 7863 Joined: 11/15/2005 From: Seminole,Alabama, USA Status: offline Hey Josh, I always sell the halves for $2 because they are more popular......Ummm....Rarer. The pints and quarts for $2 because they are common......Ummm......Not as rare. The half gallon for $4 because they are bigger and rarer. That way those peps that think they would look cute in their kitchen filled with beans will snap them up and I don't have to store them any more. Use Ebay hipe at yard sells and the flea and pepole will buy more. A little history, a little excitement, a little salesmanship = a little-o-cash and nothing to bring home. < Message edited by capsoda -- 6/7/2006 3:44:06 PM > _____________________________ Warren Diggin down in Dixie, USA Work is for people who don't dig bottles President, Panhandle Cruisers http://www.panhandlecruisers.org/ (in reply to JGUIS) Post #: 5

RE: Tried some outdoor shots today - 6/7/2006 10:25:20 PM    JGUIS   Posts: 1704 Joined: 3/18/2006 From: New Lexington, OH Status: offline Thanks alot.  I've always just collected, but I need to get rid of alot of stuff.  My old collection is being replaced with rarer/cooler stuff, and alot of things I have doubles(except SS Cokes, sorry cap).  I found pieces of one I haven't seen before the other day, but still only 2 in my collection.  I've got alot of common meds and other oddball cork bottles that are post 1900 that I no longer have room for.  Thought of making some displays, like a shadowbox to sell using smaller bottles like meds.  We'll see what happens.  Thanks again. _____________________________ A pipe gives a wise man time to think, and gives a fool something to stick in his mouth.

I think outdoor lightning is always the best for taking pics of bottles. I must say too that they are very clean! ~~Tom (in reply to JGUIS) Post #: 9
