    I went to pick up an Optimus/SVEA 123R that I had got hold of through a silent auction, when I spied this well used Sigg bottle on the shelf in the shop:

    It was obviously well used!

    Trying to think how a bottle would get dented like that. Looks like rope marks - packing in the same place and using "truckie knots" to get the tension? Oh yes, and a serious drop impact by the look. The former owner clearly regarded it as expendable.

    I agree with you. I almost bought it, just because it looked that way.

    Cheers
