question about bottles

[lynleestar]

I thought I got such a great deal on these 3ml bottles......until I got the package and opened it. They are 1 piece, the top does not come off to fill, and the hole in the top looks a little larger than I'm used to seeing. I'm wondering if I could syringe fill these guys or should I just try to resell them or pitch them??

Good morning! Have you tried really hard to take the top off? Reason why I'm asking is because I had a similar bottle and I thought the same thing at first. Then I took needle nose pliers for leverage and the top did come off.

Wow,that stinks.I would try using a syringe.

I second Libra's comment -- I'd try with a pair of pliers, as a one piece unit doesn't make sense. The dropper is made separately from the bottle body, it would be nutty for someone to then glue them on.

LMAO.... if it does no come off.. i would say use a syringe. lol..i got the giggles

Are they like the TV bottles? Come off but a b@tch to get off?

 

[lynleestar]

Okay I am sure, without a doubt that these bottles caps are built right on~! I pulled out the pliers, I twisted, I tugged, I pleaded with the darned thing and all that happened was the dropper part ripped away from the rest of the bottle:

darned little cutesy bottles that won't cooperate~!

 

[kj4lxw]

LOL, so thats what you been doing between PM's!!

Well, maybe they are meant to be squeezed and then inserted into liquid so that its own suction will fill it?
Yeah, looks like syringe time (put the pliers down lynlee, put the pliers down...)

That's nuts! What kind of genius makes a one piece dropper bottle? Seriously?

Look at the seam that runs up the side - through the dripper. Looks like this is a 2 part injected molded bottle - basically the two side were poured into a mold, then the 2 pieces heated and pressed together. So no, the top won't come off. No wonder they were a great deal. Dang. Looks like a syringe will be needed....or the plastic recycling pile.

 

[markfm]

Aww, what a drag.

lol, maybe good for some1 in a bind

 

[kj4lxw]

Would it be easier for her to use the syringe adapter that comes with E2 cartos to fill this rather than blunt needle?

 

[Darkwitless]

Lynlee - can you tells us where you got these? I want to make sure I don't order any from there - I've been looking at bottles.

I got them on ebay. The 5ml are just fine, some of you may have gotten some from me in PIF's

I'm going to message the seller and see if theres anything that can be done. They seem to be a reasonable seller, offered to send multicolored caps if I didn't mind waiting 3 days, so maybe they'll do something for me.
