Crystal Pepsi another crazy auction

[iggyworf]

Crystal pepsi didn't last long but this auction is going sky high. Normally I would see one of these bottles go for 20 to 50$. I was happy to get one for about 12$. WOW again. http://www.ebay.com/itm/171670317722?_trksid=p2060778.m1438.l2648&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

For those of us (ME) who collect OLD, please explain the attraction of something so NEW. I mean no disrespect, I'm just trying to educate myself. Jim

For us Pepsi collectors, it was a limited run of a new drink by Pepsi. It was only out for 1992 & 1993. But why these 3 bottles are going so High I can't figure out. Maybe the bidders just don't want to lose to each other.

These bottles are not rare. A few months back a lot of 10 of these bottles sold for $300. Why these 3 went so insanely high, I have no clue. Singles sell for average about $35 a piece. My bet is the person doesnt get payment for this one.

This was a much better deal. Probably reasonable to the seller due to having to make his basement "climate controlled" in North Dakota.What the heck does that mean anyway? It's heated in winter with a pot of water on the stove and they have a dehumidifier in the summer?

Very odd indeed. Here is one 'Crystal Pepsi' bottle empty. Don't understand ?????? Oh well, Mine only cost 12$. So I'm happy. http://www.ebay.com/itm/271778046936?_trksid=p2060778.m1438.l2648&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

There is a video on youtube of some guy buying one of these off ebay, then chugging it and promptly vomiting everywhere. What a world we live in.
