A ballpark, not a quote. Condition moves this number a lot, and so does who turns up to buy it. It isn't an appraisal and it isn't a dealer's offer.

What matters when you check it
- Check that the lid fits evenly and the handles are tight; a matching lid matters for this style.
- Look for deep pitting, corrosion, or white oxidation inside the pot, not just surface darkening.
- Confirm the Club Aluminum stamp on the bottom and measure capacity rather than relying on memory.
Where the number comes from
Watching what these go for, not a record of sales. The range is a judgement call from what the same thing fetches secondhand. When an item has real sources behind it, they'll be printed here with the date they were checked.
Before you sell anything, look at sold prices rather than asking prices. Asking prices are wishes; sold prices are evidence.
