Yep - that's really pricey. I got the 24-105 coffee mug for about $15 off e-Bay.

Horribly over-priced for a piece of molded plastic...

I love the mugs, but no way I'm paying that much for one. The $15 that Mark paid for his on e-Bay would be stretching the outer limits of what I'd pay for a coffee cup.

Stop drinking out of plastic, guys. It's bad stuff. If you only knew how much chemical is leaching into the drink when the plastic is exposed to heat such as the dishwasher, or coffee.

I realize those mugs look cool, but drinking hot liquids from plastic is a health hazard.

Use ceramics and steel.


Thank you. bw!

Except the website claims the mugs are made from stainless steel, not plastic.

Yeah on a couple of the shots you can see the inside is not plastic, but metal.
