Hi all,

Bought this here a few years back and have had a couple of kids since - money is a lot tighter than it used to be.

There are no chips or cracks, however there is a split in the cap.
I haven't applied the ribbon or the seal.

Make me an offer.
I'll throw in the other bottle too;



Cheers,

Anson

Depends on the level of "want" of the person trying to buy it Wink .
I've seen some on Ebay for up to $800 (I'm sure others will chime in with more info)...I don't know how much you paid for it at the time, but I seem to remember that they were not cheap to begin with ($600 at least).

The last un damaged one Paul put on Ebay for around $700. It sold within an hour.


He sold the last of the chipped ones shortly afterward and they went for a lot. $400+

Honestly don't take less than $800 and I would post it on therpf as well.

I hate Ebay but I bet you could get $1,000 if you list it on all three.

The spit in the cap is nothing. Easily replaced and new decals can be gotten. Don't let anyone tell you that lessons the value.

Wow!

Wish I'd bought a couple now!

I don't really want to sell it on ebay, I'd prefer to sell it to someone here.
There's not been much interest on the RPF.

Suppose I'll put it on ebay in a couple of days.

As Jameth says: the value is not in the cap, the value is the bottle itself!

Good luck with the sale.

I have not seen it on therpf. I really think you should post there as well. Ebay is Evil but may be worth it as well.

It's still around if any is interested.

I'm resisting going via the ebay route because I'm fed up giving big chunks of money to corporations.

Send me a PM if you're interested - any reasonable offer would be considered.

Cheers folks.

I couldn't get more than $300 a couple of years ago for my brand new kit (stickers were still in contact sheet), FWIW.

Anson,

I don't know if this will help, but in my searches for other stuff I found this person looking to buy a bottle:

Perhaps they have not seen your offer to sell, and I recommend you contact them to see if what you are selling is what they are looking to buy.

Good luck,
Dave

Not calling you a liar, but I find that hard to believe.

I did and just for kicks I went to check my records to be sure - turns out I was lying. It wasn't $300. It sold for $400 back in July of '09.

I'd post a screenshot of the eBay email if I could upload photos here.

Edit: Screenshot attached
