Dude, how far out in the sticks do you live? Go check eBay and it will confirm my pricing is correct. If you have a ton of these vintage cast iron pans bought for $30 each, you've done well.

Most antique stores don't know what they actually have. I picked up an 8 inch cast iron for 20 bux from an antique store. They were selling it as a display piece.

Used to be like that and once in a rare while you'll find a deal, but everyone is on the Internet these days, even Value Village prices their stuff at market (and higher).

I checked ebay, a lot of the vintage ones that are high priced seem to be either unusual/collector ones, or they've been restored. But there are plenty of usable good ones (i searched for Wagner skillets) on there for less than $40. You'll need to clean and season them, but I'd do that anyway with any used cast iron. The antique store ones often are rusty or sometimes have been spray painted to be display pieces. Throw them in the campfire, it'll clean the paint or years of gunk off. Finding Dutch ovens with matching lid is tough to do at most antique stores, but they'll have skillets for cheap.

Yup, the good ones that are valuable are ~100 years oldl and someone has taken a ton of time and effort to restore them. But even then, some of them will be uneven at the bottom, or other things. So it's a better deal to pay $165 for a brand new Field that is brand new but made using the old methods. Expensive? Yes, but that's the price of quality, and I have a saying, quality pays.
