As the price goes up, the number of people that will accept a substitute increases.
A portion of the potential customers of the first-choice product will not go back - the rise of competitors who can meet demand becomes more likely.

i can see a person paying $100 for a plug - if it's a hard-to-obtain item that is going to be cut up and cloned. to somebody buildling their own, a beachmaster metal lipped plug is a wise investment.
now, if you're going to spend $100 bucks and fish the thing, that is farkin stoopid, unless you happen to be bill gates or warren buffet.

If I paid a hundred for a plug , it would be to hang on the wall. I would never fish it.
The canal is great in that respect. Pour a jig for 45 cents , stick on a 60 cent curltail and let it slizzer right on the bottom. If it gets snagged , you lose $1.  |

Welcome
And congrats on your plugs, you really have some sweet stuff!
As for fishing them, (and I am a collector and fisherman)
Let's just say this,,,that's what they are made for! When we are in the boat around the rocks with wire line ...I always go for the Gibbs gts 3 3/4 "nothing has better action"
Hell the damm thing is to big to cast any how..lol
I always toss an old beat up Atom or what ever I have in my bag.
Now as a colllector, I would think twice about tossing MINT old plugage out to a bloo fish blitz. LOL
Again, welcome to the site.Head over to the antique lure forum and post some pictures please
