He just wrote back. He says he has someone else packing them and it must have been a miscommunication. Very apologetic and sincere sounding. Good advice Matt, as always.
All is not lost yet.

Seems strange he would have both items, the one you thought you purchased and 1935 gin bottle, to make a comunication error. Sounds more like he was attempting to make it sound and look better than it was, and you called him on it.

Seems like a bait and switch. What you see ain't what you get. Wonder how many of them 1935 gins he's got? And if he's ever pulled this switcheroo before. Hmmmm.

Go to eBay and do an ended search on that particular bottle or bottles. If he has sold more of them before, they should show up.

I still have to have it in my hands but I just got this from him.
"[font="arial, verdana"]Hi Eric,

Apparently, there are two different Poland bottles, so the other one is being shipped out today. Let me know when you get it! "

No mention of wanting the other one back...yet.
Thanks all, I'll post back when it comes.

I put a lot of stock in what goes around comes around.

Well, I got it. It's a little cloudy but it should clean up some. The seal is weak also but visable.
Now I have to figure feedback. It was a slow deal but he pulled through. No word of wanting the wrong one back but I know I'm not going to pay the return shipping and I doubt he will want to.
