eBay


Up for auction are these four old Toronto patent medicine bottles.  There are two Pinex bottles : a cork-top aqua one embossed as such on the sides, and a clear screw top one with about 70 % of its original label.  Embossed “Pinex Trade Mark” on the back.  Label indicates The Pinex Co. Toronto.  5 5/8 “ and 5 ¾” tall.

Next is a clear, unembossed rectangular bottle with a blue metal cap and original label.  The almost perfect label is printed “Pine Tar Cordial – Toronto Pharmacal Co. – TorontoWinnipeg”.

The fourth bottle is also unembossed in clear glass with a metal screw cap, and a label printed “Puretest Essence Peppermint – United Drug Co. Limited – Toronto, Can.”  Label seems to have three small paint spots near the middle.

Great bottles for one fair price, and ready to display !


The pictures speak for themselves.  I will be glad to take more pictures if needed; just ask.  Should you have any questions, also feel free to e-mail me before the end of the auction.  I will do my best to answer you !

I will ship to CANADA and the UNITED STATES.  I also ship worldwide on request, as long as you contact me before you bid.  I WILL COMBINE SHIPPING on multiple purchases.  Local pickup is welcome for buyers near the Victoriaville region (Québec).

Thanks for reading this, and good luck bidding !

Please read these (boring) terms before you bid (yes… the fine print)

SHIPPING: I usually ship via airmail, and I take the most economic option when I can.  If you want special shipping service (i.e. Ground, Priority or Express mail), please make sure to tell me when you place your bid.  Buyer pays shipping.  I will ship upon receipt of payment. 

SHIPPING COSTS : I will be glad to send a shipping quote to those asking for it, providing a postal or zip code.  I always charge exact shipping cost, rounded to the next dollar.  I may add a dollar or two on very large parcels to cover packing material costs, but this rarely happens and I advise the buyer when doing so.

PAYMENT IS REQUIRED WITHIN 7 DAYS after I send the winning bidder an invoice with total cost.  I should send the invoice shortly after the auction ends.  I will ship upon receipt of payment.  If I have not heard from the winning bidder after 7 days, it may result in a negative feedback.

DO NOT BID IF YOU DO NOT INTEND TO PAY FOR THIS ITEM or if you do not agree with any of these terms.  Please read my return policy (below) and ask your questions BEFORE BIDDING if you have any concerns.  Questions sent within the last few hours of the auction may not be answered.  All sales are final (see exceptions below). 

----------------------------------

Return policy

I will only accept returns for items that have not been described accurately. The item cost will be refunded if the buyer returns it in the same condition within 7 days. Buyer pays for return shipping.  I WILL NOT accept a returned item if the buyer misread the description.

I WILL NOT be responsible for broken items.  I always make sure all items are packed to withstand the trip; what happens after they leave my door is out of my control. However, unless a breakage is obviously my fault, I will refund the full purchase price to the buyer, but not the shipping charges, with proof that the item is broken.
