NEAR PERFECT~STODDARD, NH~NEW ENGLAND~ALL SEEING EYE~PINT MASONIC FLASK~O.PONTIL:
$350.00

WELCOME and thanks for stopping by. Being that Halloween is nearly here, I decided to give you all a TREAT. But first, I\'d just like to reference an example of this flask that sold recently and it was stated in the seller\'s description that the flask was in near perfect condition. Have a look at itfor yourself, and form your own opinion as to what condition it\'s in. To seethe original listing of the one I\'m mentioning, please clickHERE.Now,......if THAT example is near perfect, then what does that make THIS one? That didn\'t look like any open bubble to me. It looked like a pretty good sized pressure ding in my opinion. But it\'s hard to tell due to the quality of the photos. But for only a couple ofpictures, you weren\'t really able to see much in the way of detail. But it\'s certainly clear to me that it isn\'t \"near perfect\".Along with whatever that \"open bubble\" issue is, I saw a considerable amount of high point wear, and a few light scratches.No; I don\'t want you to think I\'m trashing the other guy\'s item, or listing. I only ask that you compare the two and see the differences between one that was SAID to be near perfect and one that in reality, IS near perfect and I\'m only trying to call to your attention, that someone was willing to spend nearly $300 on that less than near perfect flask. As I said, this example actually IS in near perfect condition and the glass itself, has great character with crude, pebbly texture and it\'s also loaded withseed bubbles and has a few nice, larger ones as well. It is of much better quality and just in case you might see this in any of the photos and wonder if it\'s some sort of an issue, I\'ll point out that there\'s also a thinline of vertically elongated bubbles and impurities in the neck. Absolutely NO form of damage or any other kinds of condition problems and it wouldn\'t be an easy thing to find a nicer one than this. The only thing to mention for complete and total accuracy is a very small amount of minimal wear. Mainly to only the highest points of relief because of it having a great mold impression. The color of these flasks are typically encountered in a lighter golden topaz amber. But this one also has a nice amount of yellowish olive in the mix and it\'s a very attractive color with good back lighting. Lastly, I\'d just like to mention that the lip is crude and slightly uneven. But that there is nothing there that was ground & buffed out. It\'s fire polished and totally as made. The height is 7 1/4 inches. ! BEST of LUCK to you!!Payment through paypal or perhaps using an alternate method, is expected within a week\'stime. Butif you\'re opting for something other than paypal, please be sure to contact me at least two full days before the listing ends. A quick payment is always welcome and would certainly be much appreciated. Once payment clears, I\'ll do my best to get your package in the mail and on its way to you ASAP.If you have any questions or concerns regarding this item, they must be asked and/or addressed before you enter a offer.If you have time, please take alook through my other listings and remember to keep checking back for more SWEET antique glass to come in the near future.THANKS and have a great day!( :

On Oct-26-17 at 11:59:28 PDT, seller added the following information:

I\'d like to offer an explanation to anyone who might be wondering why I cancelled out the high, one THOUSAND dollar offer. First, the person who offer that amount LIED once again, because they told me that they offer FIVE thousand astheir max offer. Regardless, this person never intended to pay up for the item after winning it because they messaged me and told me so. But now, a little bit on the back story....... There was a no S variant of a pint size Udolpho Wolfe\'s that originally sold back in early September for $33.07..... The original description stated that the bottle had a small flake or chip on the lip. I recognized the bottle that was now priced with a \'buy it now\' at $250 and I questioned the buyer and NOW the seller about it and asked them where they got the bottle from and I was given some B.S. story (which I have saved) about the bottle having been found at the Richmond bottle show. According to the person who bought it for the purposes of reselling it, there wasn\'t anything wrong with the lip. So then where did the chip go that the original seller described? So I decided to play it out and I requested 5 photos showing the lip from different angles. Do you think I ever got them? So basically, I\'m only trying to warn you all about this fraudulent seller and it shouldn\'t be toohard to find out who that is because this guy finally realized that he wasn\'t going to get $250 for it and he ended that listing and put it back on as an sale setting and he duped someone into spending 79 dollars on it. So anyway, he got busted and I let him know about it and now he\'s been sending me harassing messages and more or less told me that he was going to put a max offer of $5000 on this flask and then not bother to pay. It\'s clear that someone who knows what price range these flasks sell in, wouldn\'t go putting a offer of $1000 on it and if anyone wants to find out who this guy is, just message me and ask. But the geographical location underlined above should be your first clue. Needless to say, this person\'s name is now gracing my blocked buyer list.
