I agree with the fake theory - sad people are doing this when they try to pass them off as original.

Can't believe that anyone would think that bottle is authentic in any way shape or form after looking at it for a minute or two

I like to stare at it and try to figure out how the mold could accommodate such embossing... [8D]

Oh no, not that bottle again! lol

Yeah i'm glad it's gone. I traded it back to the original owner for another bottle. He's still got it.

I just started getting into pontiled porters back when I got that bottle. It's funny that when I first bought it from him, I didn't look very close at the embossing. In fact not until Chris opened my eyes to it, was when I really figured out what I had. Overall it was a really good lesson learned for me.

So glad I collect low end bottles. Got all my good ones back in the day when they were cheap. The dollar's worth just about nothing now. Don't count on the dollar ever increasing in value.

I think we will be okay as long as the rest of the world keeps accepting our worthless money. But just to be safe I suggest investing in a sturdy wheelbarrow tote all your inflateo dollars to the store to buy a loaf of bread.....
