Prices vary from country to country. In the United States, the cheapest wooden caskets (like cloth covered particle board coffins) start at prices around $ 500. Cardboard caskets are even cheaper. The most expensive wooden casket is currently (in 2014) Batesville's (Marsellus) "Masterpiece" solid African Mahogany casket with a manufacturer's suggested retail price of $ 38,000, but offered by Online casket retailers already at prices around $ 16,000 (plus 2,000 for an optional carved top). Metal casket prices start around $ 700 for unsealed 20 gauge steel caskets (Online casket retailers), sealed metal caskets being somewhat more expensive. Sheet copper and bronze caskets are available from § 2,000 (Online casket retailers). The most expensive casket on the market is currently a 1,100 lbs heavy cast bronze Pharaoh Sarcophagus manufactured by the York-Matthews Company, offered at a manufacturer's suggested list price of

$ 270,000, but sold by discount casket retailers already at a "bargain" price of

$ 160,000. The casket prices charged by funeral homes are often considerably higher than those of Online casket retailers.

Sorry there is no information online yet as too how much Whitney Houston's casket cost. It was a good service.

Whitney's casket - a perfection half-couch design (split lid) - had an optional transparent gold-polish finish and probably also the optional 24 karat gold plated handles. The casket is also available as full-couch design (with an undivided lid) and can be equipped with an optional bronze foot panel then. The manufacturer's suggested retail price (in 2014) starts at 15.000 US $ and ends at 28.000 $ with all options. Online casket shops offer the model from 12.000 $ for the standard model, and there is currently an e-bay "bargain price" offer of 10.000$.
