Jessica, thank you for your comment. It is surprising the cup (officially called beaker) has been traveled to the United States!
The special ordered Pyrex glass beaker can be collectible item if you would. Otherwise, if a beaker is returned to the shop with good condition(cleaned and no broken), you will be eligible for receiving Yen200 (about USD 2.5) per cup.

The company post different design of their beakers made in the past. Some had been sold in 80's and 90's could worth more than Yen200.

Hello. I found one of these Marlowe cups at a thrift store here in Virginia. I was just wondering if you think it would be worth anything? I do see that it is made by pyrex, and that can be collectible depending on what it is.

Thank you for your comment Connie. Yes Marlowe pudding is much better than ordinary ones. It could be 1000 times as you said while the price is as high as 5 times. I will also introduce some others available at least in Tokyo in future.
Cheers,

Connie

Japanese pudding (purin, as the Japanese call it) is pretty tough to get in the US, even in Japanese communities! I remember when I visited Japan, I loved the Morinaga Milk Pudding that was sold in convenience stores...I'm sure that this "Marlowe Pudding" is 1000 times better!
