I'm a big fan of Le C and Staub for what you've described. And new 6 qt, on sale (and they're always on sale) should be within your price range. Lodge and others make ceramic coated iron that should perform the same function.

Note that WTB is typically used for acquiring used "stuff" from members. Not sure that is your intent.

Why ceramic? With that budget you may have enamel lined cast iron by Le Creuset or Staub.

Thanks for the recommendations! And I was gona post in a different thread asking for advice, but I figured I’d see if anyone had anything used, I enjoy thrifting for kitchen stuff, used stuff doesn’t bother me

Grew up cooking in one at the grandparents, wana get one for myself, I cook with all clad mostly but Ive been wanting something like this for a while

I’m confused. You want a CLAY pot as opposed to an enameled cast iron one?

If so, ceramic cooking vessels are not super easy to find. The French company Emile Henry makes a version that looks like it has good fit and finish. A donabe is another option.

Spanish cazuelas are less expensive. You can find them at La Tienda (Spanish importer). I think mine was about $60 or so new.

I have a thing for cooking in clay pots but after destroying one with a fast temperature change I am pretty cautious with them.

For cheap but effective look into a Romertopf

If by ceramic, you mean enameled cast iron, BBB has a house brand that is inexpensive.
Reminiscent of what Ikea used to sell:
