I know who the buyer was the first time. The same buyer bought some stuff from me in September and wanted to pay with a Money Order. It took 5 weeks of constant asking if he had sent payment, with a promise every time of it being in the mail tomorrow. I blocked the guy, got tired of his games. I...
The epoxy won't hold up to tumbling. One trick I learned was to completely fill the bottle with copper, and totally fill the outside with copper also. Sounds wrong with the extra weight, but it keeps the copper from sloshing & jarring the bottle. I tumbled a cathedral pickle this way with a hole...
Well said, there is good & bad everywhere. My digging budding Tony & I just did a privy dig in a small Michigan town for their annual home tour. People buy tickets & get to go through houses, we pick a house & dig a privy while the tour is going on. Usually have about 300 people stop by & see...
Andy is a great guy & well respected. He generally over describes his stuff. If he thought it had been tumbled, he would have said so. I would contact him with your concerns, he will gladly help you out and answer your questions. I looked at the pics, it looks good to me....bill
Looks like you missed the guess about the color. Check seller's feedback & you will see who bought the ink, they were pleased with the ink. I wish now I had bid higher, looks like it was a good one. Not everyone is a crook on ebay, some people just don't know what they are doing...Bill
I was the underbidder on this one, was hoping this post would scare everyone else off. It did go to a very well known national collector who wasn't too scared either. Will not be surprised to see it on his for sale page in a little bit for many times more than what he paid for it.I did not...
I think it is the bible for med collectors, the most complete & accurate guide out there. Even though no one will get all the meds, this one has the most.
The top two bidders are good ole USA boys, one who buys a ton from PA, mostly pontil meds, and the other a NJ collector. I have heard rumor that the PA collector has a gas well, but as far as I know, that is just a rumor. The last really old bottle the Sheik bought was from me in mid July, an...
looks like another New Jersey collector wants this one really bad, I never dreamed it would bring that much. I am very happy for Chris's wife though....Bill
I am selling some pontil meds for Jan Vincent, the wife of the late Chris Vincent

I would have loved to have offered the Paterson pontil med to Jim, but...
Not class warfare, just simply put, you have to have common sense at any level. I am sorry, but if they spend $5000 on one of these scams, they do have more money than brains. We all know of all the internet scams out there, I wouldn't even gamble a $100 on a thousand dollar bottle from some...
