John,

   First of all, another gorgeous bottle with the type of Taotie I love.
But re.cost of stoppers:
With all due respect, you might know about their cost in the USA, etc.
You don't know how many are in storerooms in Shanghai, Beijing, etc.
I'm willing to bet that they have many still in stock
Many might have been melted down for the silver content, but I'd bet
that many are still in bins in the PRC.
Best,
Joey
