Well if past sales are any indication it appears that the bottles are more valuable than the frames.

[TimD]

Sheesh, I have one like that, open to offers :rolleyes:

[Hilltopperny]

I put an early bid on these. Never expected them to get that kind of price.

A lot of water bottles collectors and bike collectors around.

I've got some brand new, never used Serotta water bottles, including a Return to Saratoga Open House edition. I'm going to have to list those on eBay now!

Could be worse, Becker has some carbon bottles which go for about $350 per bottle.

I have an old water bottle that I was hoping to sell to collectors. Then I found that there are identical NOS bottles from the '70s, they seem to all be listed for $200. Probably still list mine, maybe the ridiculous prices for the NOS bottles will make someone settle for mine. Wish I still had the mounting hardware for my T.A. handlebar cage, those things sell pretty well. As they should, it was really useful on long rides

Wow...would never had expected them to go for that much.

:eek:

[bigman]

Especially when you consider the frames don't fetch much at all.

[dustyrider]

Looks like they're back.

[Plum Hill]

Looks like they're back.

Yep. I placed the first bid just to see what happens.

We could have Serotta bottles made for less.

:p

My thoughts exactly. Someone on FatCogs did the same thing with the old Fat bottles when the price and scarcity got to be overwhelming. And with new stuff, you can at least be sure they are BPA-free bottles, too.

I'd be in for 3 if someone decides it's worthwhile.
