Default Anyone have old Key Lime?

Does anyone have any of the older style CIM Key Lime they would like to sell? I have a client who loves it and the newer batch is nothing like the old.

Do you have pictures? As far as I know there is only one Messy Key Lime Pie, it's a Ltd. Run, but the beginning and end of any pull may vary.

I have pounds of the old key lime - I don't know what the going rate is, but I'm happy to sell some. Let me check on a price

Yes. And a hybrid known as Parrot Lime.

Yes, it's an old batch of Vetro from many years ago. I have the key lime in both the clear core and the white core. Maybe I'll post some in the Garage sale in a couple of days Sorry to send the thread off course

I'm looking for the white core but if the other is a similar color I'd be interested in that. Please PM me with prices if you have some to sell. THANKS all!!

Here's a (very bad) pic of the last little stub i have. Don't get hung up on the CIM. I didn't have the old batch labeled and when i went to re-order the only Key Lime available was CIM. I ASSUMED that it was the same but I was very wrong. I'm very interested in buying so please let me know via PM if you want to sell any...anyone. Thanks!

Here's a pic of mine...seems to have a "core" in it!





I'm wondering if anyone can say what going prices for this is right now? I can't seem to find my old invoice. Doh! My recollection, though, was that it was edging toward the $100 lb. since it's rare/no longer made? I could be wrong though...
