So now the market is yours,

And

The people that are supposed to give them away, don't know what they are!

That's why I clicked on this thread too. I thought they were something you eat, but I've never even seen that kind.

OK, the softail I just got came with the dealer's logo on the dipstick. I thought it looked pretty cool, but I didn't know it was a "dip dot" or "collectible."

I've been collecting these for a while and created a thread in the T-Shirt swap shop. I have a couple from TX if anyone wants to trade.

My buddy has a tool box covered with them from dealers he has visited all over the country.

I'm surprised so many don't know what a dip dot is...
