At that price point, you're probably looking at a Chinese hand grinder. The good news is that these are actually really solid products. I have a hand grinder from Timemore that I'm more than happy with, and have been using for 4+ years without issues.

Chinese for less than $100? You should be able to get basically any hand grinder for less than that. Plus if you're willing to do a little restoration, I see tons of them at antique stores in the US for like $20.

Of course you can get any hand grinder for less than that, but if you're specifically looking to get a high-quality grind and want something that lasts for a long time, your options become more limited. This is where the Chinese brands come into play.
