the artic pop bottle on ebay in florida has reappeared after not selling the first time but now the seller wants more $ , was $25 plus shipping , now he has included a " dominon soda " from Hamilton and wants $55 Canadian for the pair

and wants $ 47 Canadian shipping for a total of close to $ 100 and its open for bidding so could even go for more if someone really wants it , I though it was too much when it was going to cost $70 so the new price seems way too high and I already have the dominion as its not that hard to find

as a matter of principle one thing I refuse to do is pay someone more money than what they wanted the first time an item was for sale , so I'm out

but maybe someone else will pick it up , had a few other watchers last time

Yeah that's way too much for me! I don't remember how much they were asking for the Arctic Pop I saw at the Ottawa show but it was nowhere near that. I think it was $20 at most because I did debate over it for a bit before deciding not to go for it, and I would have immediately dismissed it if it was anything more than that. I have too many hobbies/not enough income to spend that much on individual bottles unless they're something really special.

When I bought this lot of bottles I was really only after the Orange Kist bottle....first of it's kind that I've ever seen, anyways I put a pretty good dollar value bid to get them and it still worked out inexpensive, to the tune of $8.75 per bottle including shipping....the rest were just a bonus. But that being said I just laid out $160 for a single bottle!...Rare and high demand brand though.

it does seem like too much , most of the embossed bottles I have from that time period , have paid $10 - $20 . most have been in that range and some might of cost a bit more if I had to pay shipping . but I haven't invested $100 into any and don't plan on doing that just to acquire this one even though it is neat

Guess you have to have a cut off somewhere, they are just bottles after all and we are only the custodians of them for our time.
