Many years ago my father guided on Ouchita and Hamilton when the first Rapala's came out.They were selling for $50 to $100 each.My father bought one and went to a hooby shop and bought balsa wood and made his own version of them.Remember this was 50 years ago !! In todays dollars it would cost about $500 for one.

I don't think I have ever spent more than 6 or 7 bucks on a lure and I've only spent more than 5 a couple of times.
I lose too many and don't make enough money to justify spending any more than that.

Paid a little over $50 for a custom swimbait from California. Haven't thrown it much but so far no bites. I also paid $40 for a custom painted Sebile swimbait on eBay and it's the BOMB at Amistad! I've been looking for another one like it but so far one hasn't come up.

i paid $8 for a rapala once...
if the saying "insanity is doing the same thing over and over expecting a different result" is true, then 99% of bass anglers are aparently insane.

26 bucks for a custom painted RC1.5 on Ebay. Took 3 weeks to show up and it was broken and crushed in transit. Went back and forth with the guy, sent it back to him for a replacement, and never heard anything from him again.
Lesson Learned.

$8.99 for me, but I have a couple lucky crafts that cost more. I have a pretty good system when I go fishing with my little brother. Right before were done fishing for the day I borrow one of his expensive lucky crafts and forget to untie it when we leave. It worked pretty good until now because I just remembered he usually reads all my posts.  Just kiddin KVS

I would guess a Marlin lure would be the most expensive. I was lied to on a fishing boat in Maui I guess. $1,000 a lure ... dooh. Here is what I found: http://2catchmarlin.com/store/info.php/id/313 I have a hard time paying over $15 for a lure.
