Flea Market Pricing

The local flea market has some unmarked corn stick pans (1950s?) and unmarked OLD (1910-1920?) griddles for around $8 each.

These prices seem OK?
 
Although my interest in them is admittedly low, I would have trouble spending more than about $5 on an unmarked cornstick pan, even if I knew it to be Lodge, BSR or even Wagner. The griddles may be another story. If in good condition, $8 sounds like a bargain, regardless of type. There are some unmarked Griswold long griddles you can spot by the pattern number font.
 
The griddles were #7/8 and looked very old, but in good shape; pretty unremarkable I guess. Is there a general price range for griddles as I have described?
 
Some of those older, woodstove era pieces' values seem to be according to the eye of the beholder. They don't interest me as much as the early to mid-20th century stuff, so I don't pay all that much attention to what they go for. If you like them or have a use for them, $8 is still cheap for about any iron in good or better condition.
