I have these 2 bottles I got as gifts and are a bit suspicious, are they real or a reproduction?
A lot of collectable bottles have take a hit for example coke. Has gone down in value. Supply and demand. I see people all over the place thinning out or worst selling their beloved collection. I guess it's famine or feast.Yea, I see Wheatons all over the place here in Maine. People liked them for their color. I would've rather put my money into the real deal antique bottle back then. At least it would've held most of its value over the years and maybe even gone up in value.
Yes, Robby I hear you. Many folks out of a job now so collections are coming to market. It's cyclical with the economy. Are younger people interested in antique bottles? Are they interested in antiques at all? The hobby needs to grow to keep prices firm. The rare, good bottles will go into stronger hands and will most likely find buyers, but the common, and medium grade bottles will suffer price collapse as the market gets flooded with them. Just type in "antique bottles" on facebook marketplace and you'll see boxes of common bottles. There is a silver lining though, in that search there may be something really good so you got to keep looking. Hopefully the seller will ship.A lot of collectable bottles have take a hit for example coke. Has gone down in value. Supply and demand.
