I plan to list a super nice Tippecanoe on eBay in a couple days unless someone here on the forum is interested in it.
This great, golden-amber, Tippecanoe is in sparkling mint condition, no cracks, staining, scratches, chips, nicks, or open bubbles.

I probably would have just offered this one on the forum at a fair price and saved myself the ebay fees and hassle. Its a popular bottle but there are 6 of them on ebay right now.

and most of the others have no reserve. Still it looks like they always bring about the same price, day in and day out. I do agree you could have tried to sell it off ebay for about $20 less and taken home the same amount.

I did mention at the opening of this topic that I would sell it to anyone on the forum if they had an interest, but I didn't get any responses. My reserve on my eBay listing is $110 although I'm hoping to get a little more for it. If it doesn't sell on eBay I would take $100 for it, which is exactly what I paid for it a few years back. Otherwise I'll just keep it.

I noticed a 'very tiny' light spot (less than 1/16") located on the plain (back side) of the bottle. I'm not sure what it is? I looked at it with a magnifying glass and there is no sharpness or depth to it. It's definitely not a pot stone and I don't think it's a ding or nick. It looks like a tiny irregularity or imperfection that may have happened when the bottle was released from the mold. My camera needs a new battery, which I ordered, but I can't take new pictures until it comes. When it does, I'll post a clear picture or two of the spot to see if anyone here on the forum can tell what it might be. Since I could not amend my description I placed a note alerting further potential bidders - preferring to not surprise anyone after the fact. I have of course a clear refund policy in place. I may or may not re-list the bottle.
