The seller drank from the bottle quite heavily before writing that listing.

Right.  To the point where he heard a buzzing in his head and thought it was dial tone.

Must have. The screen capture I grabbed and posted above show that was not the original title.

Still listed as "Used" so I wonder if it's "all used" or "partially used?"

Yeah, I guess Mr. Helpful told her it was not a telephone. She changed the listing and sent me a message stating, "It's a collectible bottle".

. . . or she sobered up enough to read the front label which says " . . . BEAN" and after that, "Bourbon Whiskey."
