    GaleriaGila Hola, y'all!

    Well the ebay experiment is over, and was a massive failure and minor success.
    The lot of duplicate corks sold for $2, with free shipping! GAHHHH!
    However, I did locate a bird cork collector in Australia and one in Canada... so after all this drama, there was THAT.
    If I had it to do over again, I would have followed Komo's advice and broken them up into groups of some kind... taken my time... given people plenty of time to shop and inquire,etc.

    Nexxxxt time!

    GaleriaGila Hola, y'all!

    It arrived... great cork. It's from Bogle Vineyards (which is totally new to me) , a small family winery in NW California. The text is...

    "Over a bottle of wine, many a friend is found. YIDDISH PROVERB"

    I love it. Thanks, Tyeldom3!!!

    GaleriaGila Hola, y'all!

    I read all about their label and logo... turns out that pheasants are all over their vineyard's territory, and they have always had that same pair as their 'representatives'. Thanks again!
