I was told this bottle was worth between 3-500$ and seen another site that appraised it at 375 I'd be happy to get 300 for it

I also wanna note that I didn't make an attempt to clean this bottle because I'm not experienced and didn't wanna ruin it but it looks like it's in pristine condition other than a little dirt

Hey Ryan, Thanks for visiting. We're bottle guys, we wanna see good natural light photos of the entire bottle, details of the base, lip, embossing and any other notable features. This is Ryan's bottle:

Hey Ryan. Looks like a pretty bottle. To go back to your original question, Ebay will find you a buyer. If you list it for $10 and let it go, it should sell for it's fair market value. I'm not sure what that is, but if it's graphite pontilled, I would think $150 would be a steal.If you do list it, make sure to put up lots of pictures and every detail. Include every search term you can think of including mineral water, soda, blob top, pre-hutch, etc... Best of luck, Bob
