Early 10 Gal. Cast Iron Cauldron
You may bid if you like what you see in the pictures and we will add a description to the listing soon. We have a couple
hundred items or more to auction off over the next month as we continue
to empty out the storage building. I guarantee we're going to be digging
out some really nice and unusual stuff to offer.
We are honest and easy going about selling here on Ebay and expect the same courtesy from the sellers we buy from on Ebay as you would also want yourself. We have sold many other items on Ebay in the past and treat each person and transaction with the same respect as the last. If you have any requests, just ask; we will be glad to help you out. Our past experience and track record for safe packaging and delivery of sold items is excellent. We are very thorough and careful at packing. We do apply shipping insurance on every package to protect the item, you, and ourselves as the seller. The insurance cost is already included in the flat shipping rate given which is for the lower 48 states only. We are not here to make extra $ off shipping and will charge exact shipping cost if you request us to ship to other countries.

10 Gallon
The pot measures 12 3/4" tall and the opening of the mouth is 15 1/2", the belly is 17 1/2" at its widest point. Lots of bold personality. There are no breaks, cracks, holes or repairs. If you ding the side it rings like a dinner bell; the test of a quality dense cast. This is a great cauldron and the older pot belly shaped kettles are very rare to find this size.

I made an oversight in calculating shipping cost with our FedEx account and I can get the shipping cost down to $ 44.00 for nearly all of the lower 48 states. Pick up at our home is welcome and always free.

Please take notice:
Viewed the top bids on a few items out of the 70 we have running today. A few like this one had bids with low
feedback scores, and that's fine; I encourage all parties to receive an equal chance.
However, and I
hope
no one will think we are being over explanatory here, we
understand auctions can get ruined by extremely low feedback bidding. So I'll
make a small statement here to help articulate our opinion, and our
position on bidding activity.
We will block bidder ID's and cancel any bids from those with a feedback of ( 3 ) or less, especially ZERO feedback, "unless"
you simply drop us a line through the "ask seller a question link" and
notify us of your interest and bidding
intentions beforehand. We are in no way attempting to be rude, or
offend anyone and of course, we don't wish to discourage any parties from
bidding. We welcome your bid. Every last
one of us on Ebay started out with Zero feedback and every new bidder
deserves the same
respect we received at that starting point. If someone is a low
feedback bidder with genuine intentions they will have read this in
the description and won't have to worry about having their valid bid
being canceled by accident anyway.
Other than the reason mentioned above, we will not regulate or
interfere with the auction bidding at all. We will not be having a friend
bid up the price, bid on the item ourselves, set a reserve
amount, or end the listing early for any reason such as accepting a buy
it now price from an ebayer or sell the item outright to anyone else
local during the auction. This item is sitting in the house where the picture was taken, not in
some retail store. This
auction will run its course right to the end.
We are just like you and hate when an
auction item we are interested in does not run till the end, or is questionable and ends up not being a true
absolute auction.
Here's the " Bottom Line"
We just want a
pure unadulterated,
straight up legitimate,
absolute no reserve,
&
" FUN! " auction.
