    coke.trevo…
    (120 items)

    Sorry if i'm posting too many items, trying to make up for lost time. I just got this carrier in the mail today and wanted to show it off. Prob one of my best condition wooden carriers and a pretty rare one too. Seems to be the only carrier that's listed as rare in pets 12th edition was able to buy it including shipping for less than 25% of book price. I was very surprised to get it for this price because it was the starting bid on ebay and no else placed a single bid. It got me wondering how rare this carrier actually is, you think more people would have been interested in it. Although the seller didn't have a single feedback score maybe thats why no one bid or is it that this carrier is more common than i think? I have seen 3 of this carrier in the past year, but none in this condition. Let me know what you guys think of this carrier, thanks in advance and look forward to reading your comments.

      I remember when coke went from 5 cent to 6 cents but you could still get them for 5 cents so Dad decided to buy by the case. "Let's get a case. It will last longer". Sure Dad, with kids at home?

      Thats a good carrier. I sold one I had for 350 a while ago. I think I have found 3 here locally over the years. That tells me that certain bottlers made certain style carriers. Thats why there are such a range of different ones from the war years.
      You did good!

      Thanks Blaine! Your info is always very handy to me, glad you take the time to comment. I was hoping this carrier was really rare since it seemed to be the only carrier listed in Pets 12th edition as a rare carrier, but seems to pop up more often then some of the other carriers he has listed lower in his guide. Oh well still glad I got this carrier will be enjoying it for many years.

      Thanks Trey, and Tommy. Theres another one listed on ebay right now (item number 171049758060). Its not in the best shape tho, but has pretty low starting bid, maybe only one will bid on that carrier too.

      Thanks: blunderbuss2, Spriteboy, walksoftly, Trey again, trukn20, mtg75, egreeley1976, jameyrd, undreal, tommy1002 again, chevy59, & crswerner.
