The $500 one is askin way too much, on the columbus, ohio craigslist we have a guy who wants $500 for a hemingray 42, thats 1000 times the book value (actually it's more like an infinate amount as thats how common 42's are) so i would assume the guy askin 500 for the bottle is just hopin to strike it rich. But hey, if you got it for christmas it shouldnt mater what it's worth, it's a christmas present and those are allways good. _____________________________ Let me know when the telegraph companies want their hemingray-42's back! bryan (in reply to woody) Post #: 7

Keep it as the gift it was intended to be. Enjoy _____________________________ Kim James Brunet diggincajun (in reply to Brains) Post #: 8
