It's completely up to you, Joel... If your bid is $45, you take the whole pile!

Bears,

It has been done. I just paid $45 through Slaypal for the whole Kit N' Kaboodle. My wife is gleering at me again.

Thanks!

RE: New Forum Auction: Pair of Bitters + Bonus Bottle AND MORE!!!

Wow what a deal for, what $45 bucks. Two great bitters bottles (bears I had nver seen the small one just the larger one), the snuff bottle, and the coin. The bottles are clear and in good shape.

Were these tumbled? they are all pristine and even the chip in the snuff lip is smooth as if it were manipulated.

Anyway, thanks for parting with them Bearswede and for supporting our playgound. The packaging was Banzai proof and the cost was an extra incurred by Bears. He should get a pat on the back.

Thanks. I will send pics when the camera charges.

Joel

Actually, Joel, that was an imperfection occuring during manufacture... A little dip in the lip as it was being formed...

I LOVE your enthusiasm!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, I do get excited over waiting for the new arrivals. Then I move them from window to window to window in an ever changing variety of different bottles. My wife thinks it humorus.

I loved the inside of the snuff bottle. It is wicked jagged as if it broke in the mold, yet healed itself on the outside surface.

Freekinggreat stuff Bears..... thanks.

I gave the coin to my daughter as a gift. She loved it. It is a Constantine II ...... year somewhere around 347, I think.
