I know that Jonnie Walker also makes full sized plastic dummy bottles for displays...or used to anyway.
HEY! Did anyone else notice that this thread is over 60,000 hits?! |

According to the USPS, my bottle was in Jacksonville on Sunday, so it should be delivered tomorrow. Unfortunately, I have Cub Scouts with my son tomorrow night and so won't be able to unwrap and ogle it until late.

Oh but late night is the best time to oggle the bottle Pete!
Sit back, relax, have your bottle of J.W.B. handy to transfer and a Cibi Glass ready to go...HELL MAN, it's like Blade-Runner Christmas! |

No Cibi glass in my collection. Can't quite bring myself to spend $60.00 for a single glass, yet.

Take a few shots of JWB. Then dropping sixty clams on a Cibi glass will be a lot easier!

| I think it's easier to buy them in pairs, at least that way you can say your putting together a set. |

I think that if I dropped $120.00 on 2 glasses, I'd have to turn around and immediately sell them to pay for the tent and sleeping bag I'd need to live in because I don't have a dog house to bunk in when my wife tosses my a$$ out.

| Buy your wife a Racheal Dress, get yourself a BR Trench, then when you get out the glasses it'll just make sense! |

Neither is really practical when you live in the sunny, tropical climes of Tampa.
And, before you suggest it, we're not interested in moving to a cooler climate.

I think Phil's price for the pair is $110, $55 each. feels a little better. I picked up a pair myself. I don't have a wife though.  there was one on Ebay recently that went for around $40. Try putting in a saved search on Ebay instead of searching every day, you might get lucky.

Yeah...I think I would pass on a $40 dollar wife too!
Hey, the screen used one (supposedly the one used by Ford) recently went for over $500 and it had a huge chip in it! |

Definitely need to be careful with those discount priced wives, that's for sure. Sometimes you can get a really good one, but most of the time . . . <shudder>.

I just nicked a Cibi off of eBay for about that same amount. It was too good a price to pass up. I'd also just bought one off of Tuscan Hills a few days earlier, oddly enough the day after I bought it they appear to have jacked up their prices.
