...and, in the text it states that the cups should not be used for drinking.
Boing! What? Spit take!

What, may I ask, is a cup for if not for drinking?
Is it for the privilege of buying a destroyed collectible for $9.99?

...a sucker is born every minute, eh.

Could be a good thing.

Exposing more people to an ACL.....ya know how many people have never seen a full acl drink bottle for sale at a store. Not in what 25 or so years.

Plus the fact he's cutting up bottles that are so common ya can't give em away.

If he were cutting up picture lables or one from a state that I needed it would be a different story.

He didn't destroy any really good ones at least..
Not my genre, but a desecration is a desecration!!
..maybe they didn't fit on his shelf.. [;)]

They may not have been real good ones , but they were in super nice condition it seems. The only thing I can think of as to why they are not usable , is that he is cutting the tops off and not polishing off the rough cut to make them usable .

I've seen this done to some rare older embossed bottles that I assume had top damage. There usually is quite a few on ebay.

It doesn't seem that bad to me. If they were made in the 60' or 70's when bottle cutters were popular I'd appreciate them more. If none of them are worth much more now or even shipping as bottles why not. It's better than the recycle bin.
