Wow, thanks BOB and Celery. That looks like the same bottle! Mine has a slight off white tinge to it which I believe is a condition of age, it may have been more white in the begining.I am in the process of listing the bottle as we speak and will update the thread when I am done.

And here it is......

Please note I put ACL in the title for search purposes. All items on Bonanza go to Google Product Search and most of the visits come from there.

Steve ~

Good job! Great photos and text. I was going to make an offer of $25.00 just to get things going, but I didn't think you would appreciate that too much considering you have a two-jillion-dollar bottle there. Lol [:D]

I sent myself an e-mail with the link and will be watching it. But please update us from time-to-time when the offers start rolling in. And especially when you sell it.

Thanks and good selling.

Bob

Question for Celerycola ~

Do your caps have any writing on them or are they more generic and one size fits all? I have seen that type of cap in antique shops before but never paid much attention to them.

Thanks,

SPBOB

None of mine have any writing. Most are cylinder shaped with markings for one or two ounces of syrup. I have seen a few that were fancy bulb shaped but they were not functional for measuring.

No offense, but with the amount of views you're gonna get on Bonanza compared to E-Bay it seems sort of foolish to me, I would think you would get top dollar easily offsetting the few extra dollars it would cost you on E-Bay. Your bottle, so you do what you feel is best, just figured I'd put in my 2 cents, I've never even heard of Bonanza until this post and I've been e-bay for 10 years....Good Luck, Jim

Thanks epackage, I have also been a member of ebay dating back to 1999. I am still considering selling it there if I don't get any bites where it's at. Bonanza's items go to Google Product search while ebay's only go there if you have a store. My views there are about the same as on ebay, but the sales are much slower.

I may leave it where it is for a week and then move it to ebay. I have just become disgusted with ebay with all their redicolous policies. If you or anyone reading this are sellers you know what I am talking about.
