because the yixing teapot has alot of kinds , the worst only $5,but it is not really zisha, high quality and has artist' centificate most are more than $150 , so i want to know how much you can recive.
and the teapot has large(from 350 to 500ml), middle(from 200 to 350ml), small (less than 200ml), which do you like more?

You should try ebay, it is very easy to sell there, and usually tea lovers prefer below 200 ml, small teapot, because of many infusions, and real handmade zisha improves my tea so I like it too, you could post pictures.

I can only speak for myself. But I personally believe, plain styles always have good share of market. Fancy styles come and go, the plain (not much engraving, simple engraving, no animal design) styles always rule.

Besides, within my affordable range, I would like good, reliable but ordinary clay. Not many people can afford the "best" clay. But I would like the good, ordinary product to be carefully made. Once I got a yixing from a studio, I had to use a big pin to "repair" the straining hole inside the spout :twisted: I know that studio makes more expensive teapot. Even though my teapot was relatively inexpensive, it was not a good worker's attitude to release a product without checking out the strainer holes.
