I would keep it till I found a good one. I do not have that particular Lash's, but I do have one. The spot back between all those boxes I was stuck between this past evening, there is also a pretty large cabinet back in that same corner that is full of bottles I want to get put on the site. Again, I can't get to them! http://www.freewebs.com/yesterdaystreasures/crownsodas.htm < Message edited by L C -- 5/5/2007 4:33:40 AM > (in reply to bottlenutboy) Post #: 43

It it a rarity, or more or less common. Did you dig that bottle as well? < Message edited by L C -- 5/5/2007 4:37:06 AM > (in reply to bottlenutboy) Post #: 44

Status: offline yeah i know how you feel i would prefer that mine were all perfect but i will buy a chipped bottle if its not bad cracks are what i cannot deal with... it is a nice bitters although monetarily its only worth about $10, maybe a little more for the color, but alot less cause of the chip... < Message edited by bottlenutboy -- 5/5/2007 4:37:51 AM > _____________________________ bottles for sale on my website! go check it out! http://www.geocities.com/cleburneslim/index.html?1170417418125 also check out the same bottles on my freewebs site!: http://www.freewebs.com/bottlenutboy/forsale.htm Spencer (in reply to L C) Post #: 45

I have a squat soda that I have had for years, that has a crack, but has never gotten any bigger than what it originallly was. You just never know about them. http://www.freewebs.com/yesterdaystreasures/crownsodas.htm (in reply to bottlenutboy) Post #: 46

I have always liked the older bottles from the 1800s, but there again, I have many different crown tops, So many of them just have some really great character to them. There were many of them that I sold over the past couple of years that I wish I had back. Some of those I listed on eBay brought as much as 40, 50 and 60 dollars, surprised the devil out of me. Then too there were many of them that went off for 5, 6 8, and 10 dollars as well. http://www.freewebs.com/yesterdaystreasures/crownsodas.htm < Message edited by L C -- 5/5/2007 4:58:45 AM > (in reply to bottlenutboy) Post #: 50

Status: offline your exactly right...to each his own... i cant sell anything on ebay everytime i list something no one bids so it just goes off without a bid no matter how many watchers or questions i have had... its all a mystery to me.... actually the crown top was invented in the 1890s and the actual crown cap for the crown top wasnt invented for another 3 years after the top < Message edited by bottlenutboy -- 5/5/2007 5:06:28 AM > _____________________________ bottles for sale on my website! go check it out! http://www.geocities.com/cleburneslim/index.html?1170417418125 also check out the same bottles on my freewebs site!: http://www.freewebs.com/bottlenutboy/forsale.htm Spencer (in reply to L C) Post #: 51

Bought on E-bay. - 5/5/2007 5:08:42 AM    L C   Posts: 1483 Joined: 3/17/2007 From: Ohio Status: offline I think anyone who sells on eBay has that happen to then at different times. I have had about enough of eBay. I think that site is a little over rated. I put a piece of pottery on there once that I personally gave 185 dollars for, for my Misses for Xmas one year only to find when I got home that she had already had that particular piece. Boy was I embarrassed. I listed that same piece of pottery on eBay with a starting bid of 85 bucks, looking to lose a hundred on it being that is just the way my luck runs. Had some smart mouthed woman email me and told me she wanted to bid on that piece of Hull Pottery, but decided not to because my starting bid was just too high. I emailed her back and told her to stick with her yard sales, and she would probably have better luck. I have said a few times that ebay should be called a yard sale, and not an auction the way some of the people act on there. But in reverse, I have seen some items bring some really good money on there too. Next time you go to list something, do an ended search on there first to see if there have been any go off on there and see what they brought. I do that and if I see nothing promising, I will not list it. But I have seen an item bring a hundred, and I can list the same thing for half that and it will not get a bid from any of the back up bidders at all. I can not figure it out either Spence. I think I am going to duck out of here my Friend, take care for no, it was great catching you by this morning, Lou http://www.freewebs.com/yesterdaystreasures/crownsodas.htm < Message edited by L C -- 5/5/2007 5:18:50 AM > (in reply to bottlenutboy) Post #: 52

Hi Lou and Spencer, Lou, it is in the verbiage, my friend. Pictures, history and anything else you can throw at the buyer, will assist with keeping their attention on your item. Stimulate the Broca... and they will come back. Spencer, is that a Hayners or a Hughley whiskey with the chip. I have several of both, I would be glad to send you.

Huguley Co. / 134 Canal St. / Boston It is a BIM. There were two in the collection. The guy is going out of business and had a box more of them, but I only bought them because some people like the Hayner's SCA.... it is listed in the 97 Kovel's as being valued at .37 cents. I have seen them go for as much as $20+. < Message edited by epgorge -- 5/5/2007 11:33:27 AM > _____________________________ (in reply to L C) Post #: 56

There is one for sale in Whitehall for $13 if you want it. It is in pretty good shape, a little sickness but not much... more of a light haze in spots. I think it is too common for $13 at this point in time. Joel _____________________________ (in reply to epgorge) Post #: 57

"Do you have any old dirty bottles not on the shelf yet...? They usually have boxes for you to clutter through, but it is worth it once in a while. The dirty ones they aren't quite sure about value or haven't gotten to the cleaning them or think the General public wouldn't be interested in them.
