Spurs were made by various different makers throughout the world and therefore they vary in price considerably.
Spurs that have silver mountings on them will be worth more than others. Also, custom made spurs that were designed especially for the wearer tend to fetch a higher price at auction too. Famous makers such as Crockett or Renalde are very popular amongst collectors and you can sometimes pick up a very rare pair from a maker such as JO Bass, which will fetch over $2.5k for a pair!
There are plenty of good books you can get that will tell you all about the spur makers and their craft - such as Cowboy Spurs and their makers (check it out on Amazon).
