They seem to get big money for a somewhat common bottle?
In General, I see them on ebay all the time. And those Auctions, You see the Indian Queen Bitters, Ear of Corn Bitters, Plantation Bitters all the same old common Bitters get big bucks, not because they are rare but Desirable I guess. I got some rare Bitters hundred times rarer then those but can't get much because they are more boring looking. LEON.

I personally like to refer to the types you are describing as scabs or leeches. They also don't support clubs, shows or collectors. They worship the almighty buck, as a rule cannot be trusted, their interest is purely in gain at any cost and in themselves. When I discover them I don't befriend or have dealings with them, even if they might have something I would like to collect. I refuse to encourage this mentality and try to warn my collecting friends. I do buy to resell, but I also collect and pick for others. I support shows by setting up at them, I have membership in many clubs and I hope that I am encouraging others as my interest does lie in creating friendships and trust. This will keep our hobby strong while the leech just sucks the life out of it.... it seems a lot of newer people just buy to resale period and they seem to not even collect nor know what they are selling or if its rare , common or anything nor do they care. Its strictly how much can I make...
