Yet another exorbitant price on ebay

Anthonicia · May 16, 2013

You guys are probably tired of hearing/talking about this lately, but seriously, wtf is going on here?

I have this bottle and was torn about paying $200 for it. Is this the sheik guy? Because if he is paying that much I think I'm gonna cash out my rarer Pepsi's and Coke's for 3-4 times what I paid for them. As much as I love them and really hate to see them go to the Middle East of all places....

Bought a lot of my local bottles with the intention of bringing them back home to stay, where they belong. But, as they say.... Money Talks! or Ù…ØØ§Ø¯Ø«Ø§Øª Ø§Ù„Ù…Ø§Ù„ for you arabic ya-hoos.

So if your Arabic your an automatic ya-hoo ? I'm not even going to try and explain to you what is really going on here.

This thread has bad form written all over it. [&o]

$600 is a drop in the hat for the current market "surge"

The two top bidders on that bottle are both Shiekh Al thani, with two different user id's bidding against himself. Brilliant idea to drive up the price, he could have bought that bottle for a little over $150 otherwise. Anyway, if you are serious about selling your bottles list them on ebay now before this madness ends. Put them on with Buy-it-Now of 5x or 10x what you think they are worth and see if he bites.
I don't like this but if I had some rare Pepsi or Coke bottles that is exactly what I would do.

Was just taking a shot at the "Qatarian" <sp.>. If you want to make it a racist issue then so be it. I've met a lot of arabs. Some nice, some dead. So, I guess I didn't actually meet them. Bad form on that one, gotta work on that. Was in a bad car wreck recently and had a tiny touch of brain damage, so my english 3 from college isn't exactly shining right now.

Didn't think this place turned into 4chan since I've been gone.

Bravo, it's about time and thank you!!!!
Sheik or not I'm sick of these posts as it is. Is every coke or pepsi bottle that sells for more that retail going to get it's own post from now on?
Personally, I've been wanting to delete all the previous ones for a while now but even the pending screams I'd hear would be too loud and keep me awake.
Are you done yet?

Anthonicia · May 16, 2013

Okay then. Delete the thread please? [sm=kiss.gif]

cowseatmaize · May 16, 2013

Not yet, this is only my 2nd mention of me being tired of them and only the 3'rd or 4'th in total that I noticed. There may be others but I don't read everything and I haven't been written to yet.
After so many posts and separate threads I have to let some majority rule play a part.

I've been calling this a guy a friggin' moron for weeks, the sale of this bottle is the icing on the cake. Having your buyers bidding against each other is a sign of genius...LOL

What a Maroon!

he outbid me on a michigan upper peninsula hutch bottle the other day. he only paid 255 plus postage. wish it would have stayed here instead of going to arab land where they have no idea of the history or location of said bottle. wanted it for my collection because i live in the upper peninsula but wasn't going to bid over what i thought it was worth to me

This adds evidence to my theory that the buyers get paid a commission based on how much money they spend.
