Test can values are hard to predict in my opinion. I used to think that there were only about a 12 pack of these 12 oz soft cross cans out there. Now I'm tracking almost a case....and it's hard to keep track.
I've seen them go from $20 to $440.....

I was watching that one also.ConeAddict wrote: ↑Thu Dec 28, 2017 3:03 pm I thought this one might slide under the radar but it didn't, 3 day auction and you had to look close, I didn't notice it until this morning and there were only a couple of bids at the time.

Seller is Scott McClure, son of the late, and longtime Canvention attendee, Bob McClure. Scott collects but is selling off part of his Dads collection. I had planned to put in what I thought would be a nuclear bid and would be sure to win the can.oldmoneytexan wrote: ↑Sun Jan 21, 2018 6:36 pm Buckeye Brewing.

Interesting... I have legit version of both the flat top and ring pull (fan style) of this can label. Both are National can company as this one, my flat has the same seam as this "bottom opened zip", but my ring pull has the typical notched seam National used mid 60's onward. I may not know much about tabs and zips, but know better than to spend >$500 on a third generation zip that doesn't jive with the dates the seam construction indicates with this can company.clevelandcanman11389 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2018 7:04 am C'mon oldmoneytexan even you have to admit that is just plain stupid!

That's not the point. Guys specializing in these need to educate themselves a bit more before shelling out this kind of dough. I've seen some obvious re-lids being bought at very steep prices... mainly because they were bottom opened zips or rings. When there's a market, people will supply. I personally am glad Art refuses to lid these any longer, but there are others (not advertising services) that are skilled in the craft.oldmoneytexan wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2018 6:01 pm I assume it's a zip collector. I've seen people pay stupid money for a zip of a fairly common can.
Third highest bid was $354 . . .OhioCanGuy wrote: ↑Mon Jan 29, 2018 8:42 pm So what am I missing here?
Looks like about a $275-$325 can to me.
