As someone who literally just spent $20 on one I found on Amazon, I think I can say that this is overpriced. As long as there are no cracks or imperfections then it's simply another marble m&p.
turnKeyHow is yours working out for you? If it is handling well, could you please tell me the make and model? I would like to have a m&p for small amounts of berries that will be mixed in to drinks.
Can anyone tell me if there is anything significant about this mortar & pestle to justify the high price? I definitely need one, but this is over 100% higher in price that similar marble mortar & pestle sets I see online elsewhere.

There's some generally favourable comments on it here:

Even so I can't help but feel that it's overpriced, even at the reduced drop price here. It's still just a marble mortar and pestle, and probably made in China like most others these days if I had to guess.
