epackage I'm sorry for the confusion. Yes I am the seller. I was trying to get a feel if this was actually worth something. When I had learned its value and people started getting upset about its handling. I thought it best to go ahead and establish that I am the owner. Again sorry for the confusion. Christopher

Chris, you have a lot to learn, no offense intended. You have a nice bottle but your advertising needs some work. Those additions are not what a buyer wants to see. If you set up a gallery just use the link to it. What's there is wicked confusing. Serious buyers might figure it out or will just plain give up.
Unfortunately, stopping and relisting in a week or two without good explanation could produce a bad result also.
Your probably best to let it ride. It may surprise us both, I hope so.

I know I called ebay to try and get it cleared up. but they said I would have to end it and I hate to do that as I have a lot watchers. I do not want people to get upset. I hope people can figure it out. It really sucks!!

Here's something for the future and anyone wondering now. This is what I do.
<table align=center cellpadding=10 width="90%" border=7 cellspacing=0 bgcolor=#ffe0c0>
<tr><td valign=top align=left>
<center> <font color=990033 size=4>XXXXXTEXTXXXXXXXXX<P><img src="http://USE PICTURE LINK.jpg"><BR><img src="http://USE PICTURE LINK.jpg">
</td></tr></table>

Looks funny but it creates a stand out boarder and just add as many "IMG" tags you want. Well, it worked a few months ago.
This was an after bid, add only box, not a change description.

Thank you epackage, I am happy with what I am getting now. after this auction ends I will tell a story about this bottle and other things I sell. If someone reminds me to tell it or cares to hear it.

Thanks for the info cowseatmaize. I really hate seeing my sell description looking so jumbled up.
