      Genuine question, and I am honestly not trying to be provocative here, what difference does the quality/ price/ style of the coffee mug make? Is it just a collectors thing or is it just a "that's a nice mug" thing? Am I missing something?

        imo if you buy "normal" mugs from ikea or similar places, i have to say that they do the job pretty well. the only thing i don't like about "normal" mugs is that they're too light for my liking.
        i enjoy drinking coffee out of a heavy and thick mug…and even though it sounds/is stupid as hell, the coffee somehow tastes way better out of such a thick mug 😉
        also i like different styles/prints on my mugs...for me it isn't a price-thing or "checkout my expensive mug from japan etc." ...

              That was actually the motivation to the question, the RMC mugs look great but £25…..it is just a mug....but it's a really nice mug.

                skip on a beer order and buy the mug…coffee is way more healthy than beer as you might know 😉 @Megatron1505

                      Not enough beer drunk was my guess.

                            Okay gents, on the RMC mugs, from the Coffee thread…....

                            @Snowy:

                            So I picked up a Real McCoy's mug, it's nice/good, but it's not The Real McCoy in this case. Comparing against a Four Barrel (SF Coffee ~3 blocks from SelfEdge - Kiya's Fav 😉 ) the construction is totally different. The Four Barrel mug is the style of mug I got in most good coffee shops state-side, even some good diners.

                            @Snowy:

                            @veloaudio:

                            A quick Rakuten search and I found the Navy version for $25

                            21 USD
                            http://item.rakuten.co.jp/vintage/mn8002/

                            You're right, my bad, bit more than $10, my dodgy memory 😛

                                    Not in this thread he's not. Coffee is #1 here.
