Look at Ebay prices and figure that's absolute high end for anything. For the most part, if you find it in an antique store or flea market, you should not expect to pay over $15-20 for anything, and then it better be a bigger bowl or something. Mugs ought to be in the $10 and under range. Only us freak collectors are gonna pay more and then it would have to be worth it and what are the odds someone who knows the value is gonna come in that shop? They don't know the value for sure.
