You are missing the fact that due to a settlement with Dr. Pepper Corporate over their infringing on other franchises by selling their soda online, and the in essence claiming the brand as their own essentially, and their refusal to refuse to comply with requests by DRP Corporate stop doing so, Dublin Dr. Pepper had to give up their franchise and shut down. So there won't be anymore Dublin Dr. Pepper bottles produced, and there is a mad rush to get one of these bottles before they are gone. Nevermind that there have to be thousands of these out there still.

Yeah there are cases of these bottles showing up, and even older bottles from the 1960's that are being claimed as filled by Dublin Dr. Pepper. The only thing I saw that would have any staying power was an original Dr. Pepper red and yellow crate from the 1960's which sold for over two hundred dollars. As an update on the situation with Dublin, they have reopened as Dublin Bottling Works and continuing to bottle, granted not Dr. Pepper; however, they aren't completely gone which will effect the prices when those who are clamoring for these bottles realize this fact.
