Anne, merci!
At least one of the items listed by Anne is pressed glas
and if my knowledge of French language serves me right, the seller offers 'verres estampillés' in the meaning of 'verre moulé' = pressed glas.

I guess you see the big difference between these and the cut glasses offered in Anne's list.

If I were you I'd buy a set of new glasses which you can afford and really like for daily use, and leave the rest of five Bayel alone. One missing glass is normal wear and tear - just my opinion

Not quite but it doesn't matter really, 'verre estampillé' translates literally as stamped glass, meaning as in marked.

I agree with the idea of buying another set, it's still cheaper, you've shown respect for the landlord and he/she can't really say anything then  ;D

Thank you, Anne, I really appreciate to get corrected!  :-* 'Estampillé' is too close to 'Stempel-gepresst'  ;D

Dear both,

Thanks for the great idea. I'll give them the link to US Ebay (we wouldn't be able to understand how to use ebay.fr), and have them pick what they like from there. Problem for them is, the sets are old--but it works for my budget!

What you’ve said about wear and tear/one glass is no big deal is comforting (but I really wonder how I might react if MY glass got broken!) – I come from a household where everything is cheap and disposable, so I was worried about such fancy items.
