If you didn't place that ad yourself just to drive us crazy then that's the funniest non-machine ad I've seen. Both of them.

Do you think he'd take $1500 for both? If so that'd be a killer deal haha

On the A TREAT, I count 12 bottles...how does this work out to four six packs?
His math is as good as his price estimates!!

we should all throw $5 in to a pool and then pick a month to see who really can come up with the most unrealistic ad, too bad for me because i think this one had a shot for me

What a bargain!    A-Treat is a soda maker local to the Philadelphia area, those bottles were produced well into the 80's if not 90's.  When I was in college back in the late-80's/early-90's  in Lancaster PA we would buy their sodas at the local distributor (CHEAP!).  Still came in glass bottles with a deposit for return.

I too remember A-Treat from my high school days.  I have a soft spot for collecting their stuff, I have been so close but seem to keep missing the thermometer they made.

this is very rare and have never seen one like this

Dude, you need to get out more. It's a 1970's Coke crate. In the real world, they are more common than $4,000 squaretops on Craigslist

I once put something on my local CL really high to show my wife that I was willing to sell some of my stuff... I would then say "It's a tough market" as I was getting offers, many that were more than I paid, but I had NO interest in selling.

SO, maybe some of these sellers have a wife thats telling them to sell  lol

Im sure most just have Rick Dale goggles on lol
