I'm just curious, not thinking of buying, love to poke my nose around and gather info.

What do you think of the teapots sold over at that site?

Re: Teapots at Oolong-Tea.org
I'm still not knowledgeable enough to pass perfect judgment on pots simply from pictures, so take the following with a grain of salt...
The craftsmanship is obviously basic commercial quality. Hard to tell clay quality without seeing them in person. The clays are nothing terribly special, but it looks like they could be decent preforming pots for making tea, as long as the clay is high fired enough and does not smell. Looks like they should be around $30-$35 pots if I had to take a wild guess.
EDIT: Just went to check the website and their prices. These pots seem WAY overpriced to me at $70 and $170 respectively (I wonder if that second one is a typo and they added the extra 1 in front of the 70 by mistake?). You could do far better elsewhere.
