    A Day out and around

    Yeah I saw that looking over my photos. It was only $7, I kinda glanced over it when I was there since I have 3. New to collecting so was in a mindset of adding new. I will prob grab that too regardless of the location since it seemed in good condition. Hard for me right now, unless it is a...

    A Day out and around

    There wasnt anything that jumped out at me, I grabbed a few $1 and $2 bottles that I liked the look. In looking over the pictures I somehow missed the Big Red bottles, I will likely head back and grab the better of those 2.

    A Day out and around

    Finally had some free time after a busy summer. Was just looking really but came across an old converted school house. Really my wife was looking for some old electric glass insulators so I can make a pendant hanging light fixture with them (found 3 nice slightly grey large ones). Anyway...

    Wide Variety, some nice stuff on ebay!

    I sell a decent amount on ebay, not bottles, and I agree. As a seller if I have little activity and it's an item I dont feel is going to be active I might add a buy it now for someone to ensure it goes. As a buyer I know if I dont make that commitment of a bid its a risk I choose.

    Common ACL's

    I appreciate even that. Gives a starting point, just have to pick up pointers like that. I have 2 1 dot bottles, one very sharp and the other nice but color is a little faded and needs to be cleaned. That one was actual dug up in my grandparents yard before they passed and was surprised the...

    Common ACL's

    Really just whatever I like, I like content - older colorful and artistic. I'm looking for quality (within budget) so I'll build slower. I guess I'll just have to take a risk if I cant look something up. If I waste a few bucks so be it. Was kinda hoping there was a general rule of thumb that...

    Common ACL's

    So being my collection is at 3 bottles, I have alot to collect. I was wondering as I am looking (some area's don't have cell service out in the sticks to check online) is there a price point that even common's are worth it? Basically if its not something you have seen and can't look it up but...

    New Collector Advice

    Thanks I can remember the older Stewarts bottles 15 years ago were ACL, I just didnt know what ACL was then. I collected every variety and many duplicates. I know they werent worth anything but I liked the look. Then we moved and I realized I didnt want to pack them all up so I left them...

    New Collector Advice
