Well that was the biggest waste of money ever, the tiniest tap against a jar and it shattered.
Not surprised they are being discontinued... Rubbish

I think postage, packaging and tax were the thieves on this purchase

The pair I ordered have just arrived - little beauties they are. One is now repackaged up and safely stored as a spare - the other will play a leading role in a gin run later today. I can't wait to try it!

Cheers

It has just arrived today. Brilliant.

I have made a case for it when not in use - this is just gagging to get broken.

Might stand my AS on a thin piece of wood just to improve the clearance.

If they're discontinuing them I'm glad I accedently bought two, I got one for my Grandad who has made a bit of spirit over the years and had it engraved with "Happy Birthday Grandad" by a friend of mine who does laser engraving.

How ever I put 2 in the basket by mistake, so I have one to

Thats a shame. Yes fragile,but cheap
easy to clean , all you have to be is
careful. Been using mine for 6 months
has its own perch on the kitchen
window sill. Doesn't cost as much to
feed as my other two parrots either

It is from the founder of Stilldragon and the source of the Glass Parrots.
His ex-distributers may still have a stock.

Cut and Pasted from another site, written by the guy who developed the glass parrot.

The glass parrot has reached End of Life.

We will be moving soon and they are not worth taking with us. They are too fragile to ship even with the custom foam 'shippers' so we will abandon them. The foam may be useful as packing material for cushioning other items during the move.

Not all of my ideas are good ones. This one was an economic dud.
It was a fun project but it is over now. The folks that have one now have a collector's item. They will not be produced again and we will not sell any that we have in stock - they go to the curb in the morning and that will save us quite a few cubic meters of truck space when moving the rest of the stuff.

Good-bye glass parrots. You have graced our warehouse for far too long.

Amazing that the cheapest distilling parrots EVER produced did not sell.

It costs about as much as an alcoholmeter.

But I never know what is "a hot seller" until after at least 6 months after I create it.

The glass parrot was not one of the hot items, or even a good item.

Sadly, some 600 units will be tossed. But do not ask now! You have had your chance for 2 years to get one.
They are now distilling history.

RIP Glass Parrots.
