[Jess98]

I’m looking for a goodwill bottle with the picture of Vancouver island on it, any info where I can get one is appreciated!

Treasure Valley Antiques (online) sold one like this:

Yeah that’s the one I’m looking for, there’s one on eBay but don’t feel like getting hosed paying $40 plus $60 for shipping, that’s crazy

If you live on the island keep an eye out for bottle/antique shows, there used to be quite a lot of them out there. These aren't super rare bottles so there's a decent chance that someone will be selling one, and if not you can probably ask around and find someone who would be willing to part with one.

I used to live in North Vancouver but moved back to Saskatchewan for a while and never see anything like that here, don’t think we even have bottle shows here, I might have to enquire on some Facebook pages, I’ve had luck there in the past

Oh yeah that'll be a lot tougher finding one in Saskatchewan. Probably best to watch Ebay or see if you can connect with a BC collector on here, but with the cost of shipping these days you'll probably be paying a fair bit for it regardless.

Yeah I wouldn’t mind paying 25-30 on shipping but $60 to ship one bottle is outrageous lol

Yeah, eBay is well populated with extremely optimistic souls--or, just plain greedy ones!

Several of those shops maintain websites--it's probably just a matter of watching over time until one shows up at reasonable price. The one in photo sold for about $15 if I recall correctly.

I think I have two of those bottles and I could part with one. I will try to get some pictures and see how much the shipping would be. I’m in Minnesota btw so that might limit the options
