Flathead

Just bought a new still that has a parrot built in so I don't need this beauty anymore. Parrot beak has high polish, vent tube on top and a sample/drain needle valve on the bottom.

$100 or best offer. $10 shipping in the US.

Has this been sold?

Update: The container of bottles have cleared customs in Seattle and are currently moved into warehouse space. I should be receiving my couple of pallets this week and can post some pictures of the bottles and cases. I'm a bit surprised I haven't had more interest. It might be time to move my efforts over to EBay.

Update: the bottles have shipped. They should be in the Seattle port around the 11th of April. It's hard to say how much time customs will take, but I would expect them to be available around the 15th.

Thanks.

Update: the cartons are currently in production, and I am hoping the container will depart for Seattle next week, if the custom gods are willing.

Dave,

This looks like a bordeaux wine bottle, not a spirit bottle. Am I reading the drawing correctly - fill-line is about 16mm below the top of the bottle? That might cause a problem of insufficient headspace when the contents are not at 60F.

Is it designed for wine or spirits?

What's the country of origin?

What's the ship from ZIP code?

Sorry for the slow reply. Seems most people email with questions, rather than use the forum. No, these are spirit bottles. I've been using them for a commercial vodka for the last sixteen months. As I clearly stated above, the bottles are being sourced from China and are FOB Seattle. In case you missed it, my contact info is also given above, if you would like to contact me directly with further requests for information.

-Best Regards

Dave

Here is a picture and design drawing of the bottle. NOTE: THE BOTTLES I AM SELLING ARE CLEAR, NOT GREEN.

I wanted to add that I do have warehousing arranged at $10 per pallet per month, plus a $7 loading fee on the way out.

These are clear, Stoli style bottles WITH A BAR FINISH, not screw cap.

o delivery to port of Seattle the first week of April

o each pallet is approximately 1575 bottles

o each pallet is packed with FLAT cartons, with dividers, to match the bottle quantity

o the cartons are very sturdy - not cheap crap that's going to fall apart - with a plain kraft finish

o figure the pallet weight at 1750 lbs., bottles are in a stacked tray arrangement

o FOB Seattle, $0.79 per bottle, including the cartons, one pallet minimum

o you'd have to take at least 5 pallets for me to consider a discount from that price

o I have pre-paid for this container, so all the risk is mine; I'm simply trying to get some glass

  without going broke.

I forgot to add that I can probably supply VERY completive shipping from Seattle to your location.

Update: see below, lots of new details that should be interesting. Frankly, I'm surprised I haven't received more interest (glass goes in the can, follow the wine ):

Sorry for the delay. Here's what I have so far:

Are these the standard tall Vodka bottles used for most of the Stoli line, or the premium bottles?

S.

These are standard tall Stoli style bottles, but they have a bar top finish.

I *may* have 15 pallets or so of bottles available for sale. The bottles will be a similar style to Stoli (750 ml), but with a bar top finish, rather than screw cap. The bottles WILL ALREADY BE IN KRAFT BOXES. Closures can also be arranged. The minimum order is a pallet (about 100 cases). The price, without shipping from Seattle, would be around $1 a bottle, and this includes the cardboard case. Anyone interested???
