Glass thermometer prices, more than temperatures rising!

My lord, I went on Ebay today, and I was stunned by the asking price of many of those selling glass( vintage style) Thermometers!!

Yes like a temperature, the prices of these thermometers are rising, too!!

If you are looking for glass thermometers, you should also look into either pet supply stores, or farm supply stores. As with a lot of large animals, some people still use the glass thermometers with animals.

I literajust bought a glass thermometer at Walmart. It's not mercury, but something else. Just took my rectal temp. Totally normal.

It's all about supply and demand. Ebay sellers tend to be extremely greedy when they know that they have a coveted and valuable item, that's no longer available elsewhere. I've found rectal thermometers at flea markets, antique stores, and a yard sale. They are becoming more scarce all of the time, which surprises me. I never thought that anyone would want them, outside of people with a fetish.
