I believe it is subtracted from the price if you don't have the lid, Kelley.
But, I sold a Crowleytown Mason on eBay a number of years ago without the proper lid and it sold for more than the value of the Red Book listing with the proper lid.
It was listed for $750+ and I sold it for $889 without the proper lid.
So go figure.[&:]

Hey Taz, I'm about 350 miles from Albuquerque. I would take vacation in a heartbeat just to meet you, dig for bottles, metal detect, and learn something about minerals! Especially since the mine has my namesake! I would probably bring us good luck.[;)] However, that particular week I will be joining several archaeologists on a quest for artifacts from the Battle of Palo Duro Canyon. This is an Indian Wars battle that was part of the "Red River Indian Wars of 1874-1875." If you ever get back down here for any reason, please be sure to give me a shout.[:D] Kelley

Hey Taz...

You leavin the good ole yankee state of Maine?[&o] When ya coming back? You'll be here for the bottle show and the party afterwards right? We're gonna be roasting Warren (Capsoda) and Ron (Bearswede) and anyone else that happens to come out with us![;)]

It should be a good show. I'm really lookin forward to it. Bram (Downeast digger) is putting a lot of special effort into it and Warren and I just might "Volunteer" our services to Bram so we could help him with the set up! (or with the partying afterwards)

Hey Warren, you didn't know I was gonna "Pimp you out" as cheap labor, did ya??[:D]

It's ok Wayne I'm use to it. I was in the Air Force for ten years, I'm married and everybody picks on the one legged guy.[sm=rolleyes.gif]

Just remember, when handling beasts of burden they first must be feed and watered or they wont do a damn thing.[sm=lol.gif]
