Kito

did you get any reply from the seller of all those bottles. I'd certainly be interested in a crate of 6.5 oz bottles if you did decide to go for it.

Yeah, she said that all but two were "6.5 oz", so I' not interested in buying them.
Sorry.

Hi

e-mailed the seller myself today. She tells me that someone has bought the lot.

Anyone on this forum at all??? If so do you intend selling some on cos I'd be interested.

Dave,

Do you want only the original 6.5 ounce embossed bottles or can you just use the new 8 ounce embossed bottles?

Halehouse - Not sure whether the 8oz bottles would fit. I have a vendo 39.

Terry - Would ultimately like to have 39 bottles so I can fill the machine up. The problem I have come across is the shipping charges. When I've approached sellers on ebay I have had quotes ranging from $50.00 ish through to over $300.00 I think that I will need to buy in bulk to keep the price of postage down.

The other option is to bring them back with me after my vacation in SC later in the year. However, with two small kids and a shed load of luggage anyway inlcuding strollers etc I'm not sure if I could manage an extra suitcase with half a ton of glass in it.

I think the 8 ounce are the same size. The glass is just thinner than the older ones which amounts to the extra capacity. Maybe someone else can comfirm that and if they work well in a 39. They even have the cities embossed on the bottom like the old ones (although in smaller size). I just been using mine and putting them into the recycling bin.
