I went and looked at this bottle. I am sort of at a loss seeing someone will to pay 75 bucks for a cracked bottle. I assume it is something quite rare? I was at a flea market once and came up on a guy with a whole table full of super nice bottles. I went to pick one up and look at it, and dropped the blasted thing right on the concrete. Of course when it hit the concrete, it sounded like a shotgun going off when it hit. Needless to say I was sick and so was the dealer. I asked him what he had on it and he looked at me quite disgustingly and said, Man, I had sixty five dollars on that bottle! As much as it killed me to do so, I handed him sixty five bucks and apologized for breaking it , but told him he could clean it up! That is the only time I ever payed that kind of money for a cracked or damaged bottle.................
