They look good. The rooks and knights are close to the Judit Polgar DGT exclusive set, but the bishop has a shape that I cannot place.

Wow, for $3 you win the day, Sir!
That bargain bin find is still a steal regardless if the original price of the set was only $10.

Those look very similar! Thanks.
I saw a set of pieces all wrapped up in plastic at a thrift store a while back for $3, and when I got home all the pieces including extra queens were there. Does anyone know about how much a set like this would be new? I know I got a good deal, but I'm curious how good. They feel weighted, the king is 3.5 in tall.
