This first block of text will be the same in all of my listings.
Once you have read it on a listing, you can skip it after that
(I know, like you need my permission for that, right?)
Before you get too deep in my listings, please check
my response, so you can relax, trust me and offer or buy with confidence.
Everything I sell is unconditionally guaranteed to be authentic
and as described, period.
There\'s no room for conditions here, my response will show you I take
selling seriously and approach it with honesty and integrity.
Selling collectibles in this medium, I don\'t get to face you,
therefore, my biggest selling tools, my breathtaking looks, wit and charm,
(Oh, and my crippling humility)
are completely nullified, and like the gun on a Chinese tank
just can not be brought to bear.
Shipping is a point of pride for me.
ALL fragile items will be shipped with an overkill amount of bubble-wrap and/or styro loose fill,
in boxes excessively marked FRAGILE and HANDLE WITH CARE.
You will never see me shipping with newspaper or shredded paper
or other cheesy materials.
Also, you will never pay more than actual shipping charges,
no handling fees, no hidden fees.
Many items will be sold with free shipping,
but it doesn\'t mean they will be shipped any differently.
I\'ve been shipping glass across four decades,
and you can count on me to do it right.
I\'ve been digging bottles since 1975
(Wow, where does the time go)
and you can trust my handling.
Priority is a bit expensive, but my preferred method of shipping (especially bottles)
Many people don\'t realize that when you ship priority,
most of the actual handling and shipping is done by Federal Express.
Shipping with priority mail is like a divorce,
both are expensive because both are worth it
That being said, I will ship any way the customer wants (other than unsafely)
An added perk, ALL items shipped priority come with FREE tracking confirmation AND FREE INSURANCE!
You’re just not going to do any better than that.
PLEASE feel free to drop me an email with any questions,
thoughts, observations, whatever, don\'t be shy,
I love talking bottles, digging, collectibles, whatever.
I\'m fluent, friendly, almost completely housebroken and I don\'t bite (much)

If the ‘Best Offer” feature is active, don’t be shy,
I’m easy to deal with, and don’t mind giving a substantial discount,
especially when we’re talking multiple item purchases.

The reason the lip is so wide, is that these types of bottles had a worked closure,
that served as an applicator as well.
The cork had a metal disc on top, that held a wire that ran down into the bottle through the center of the cork,
and had a bit of rags or sponge on the end, for use as a brush, to apply the polish.
A neat and old shoe bottle, in MINT shape, starting low,
and you’ll never pay more than actual shipping to safely receive fragile items from me.
Shipping includes free USPS Delivery Confirmation AND Insurance.
THANK YOU sincerely for your time!
