i love those bullet planters so much, and i just don't understand why they're so expensive! i really can't imagine paying more than 50 buckaroos for one, and it just doesn't exist...but they're so perfect, swooon!

I also LOVE bullet planters but don't have one because of the price. I've been periodically searching on ebay, but the price is high and the shipping to Canada is a killer. I'll keep checking the vintage stores.

the cost is in large part due to the fiberglass "bowl". i could crank out the base all day long...

i do think it's a fair price for what you get. love ' em!
