Coca Cola collectible bottles where to sell?!


Question:

Coca Cola collectible bottles where to sell?

I have two different 6 packs of Coca Cola bottles, the small type, I'd like to sell. They are brand new, mint condition.

One is the 'Jazzland' theme, these were sold to celebrate the opening of New Orlean's Jazzland. It has since closed, so these are not common to find. Jazzland was not open for long, and was then changed to Six Flags, which also closed after Katrina.
I also have a model jet made out of Coca Cola cans. Very cool

Any suggestions as to where to sell them, and also any idea of how valuable they are?
I'm not familiar with selling on eBay, but is it practical to sell them there since you'd probably have to ship them and they are breakable?
If sold there, how much would one start the bidding or whatever?
Are there any websites for Coca Cola items specifically?

I'm moving and need to get rid of lots of things. I also can really use the money for anything I can sell! I have a ton of stuff if anyone's interested, email me with what you're looking for!

Thanks

The second six pack of Cokes commemorates Coca Cola's '100th Anniversary' and is the Louisiana edition.

The two Coca-Cola bottles you have: Jazzland Theme Park Grand Opening - New Orleans - May 2000 and the Baton Rouge, LA 100th Anniversary Coca-Cola Bottle 2006, are considered "common" commemorative bottles for bottle collectors because there were available in supermarkets and stores even though only in a regional market in Louisiana.

These bottles usually are $1-3 each and $10-15 for a 6-pack with the paper carrier on secondary markets.

You will see these on eBay and other internet websites such as:
http://bottleworld.com/
http://www.colacorner.com/
http://www.2collectcola.com/
http://www.cokebottles4sale.com/...

As far as selling them, eBay is your best bet for the widest reach of collectors. Shipping is not a problem. Collectors would pay for reasonable shipping on these glass bottles.

The going rates are: $6.50-$7.00 per bottle and $1.00-$1.50 per bottle thereafter. Pack well using bubblewrap and styrofoam shells and a sturdy cardboard box.

USPS has a flat-rate priority mail boxes for $8.10 to anywhere in the US and you could find a 6-pack in there, but you must use bubblewrap to pack them carefully.

If you ship using click-n-ship online and print your own label fo priority mail, you get delivery confirmation included for free.

Alternative places to sell you bottles online include:
craigslist.org
cocacollection.com

otherwise,
have a garage sale, yard sale, sidewalk sale.

Finally, the Coca-Cola Collectors Club has various swap meets around the country, look up the schedule @ http://www.cocacolaclub.org

Good luck!

i would go to ebay, and type in coca cola items. just to see what the going rate would be. you can sell your items on ebay, and the buyer usually pays for the shipping. you can also put a lock on the items so that you can get the minimum amount you want, and if that amount is not met you are not out anything. good luck, ebay does work.

ebay.com
