Anything is worth some money if you can find someone to pay. In the case of a Buddha statue it would depend on its material of construction (gold is worth more than plastic), size (all other things being equal bigger usually costs more), history (an antique is worth more than a piece of tourist schlock), artistic attributes ( an Buddha carved bya master is worth more than a "SMiling Buddha" from a CHinese restaurant)

How do you make a Buddha statue?
Sculptors from Michelangelo to Inuit soapstone carvers and even Miamoto Musashi have all employed the same process. It would be the same for a Buddha statue:Wander through the world until you come across a rock or piece of wood with a Buddha figure contained in it that you are meant to release.Study the material until you are one with it and envision the steps that you would have to do to reveal the Buddha contained there.Then simply remove the extraneous material until the figure is liberated.One of the systems in the Himalayan traditions is to create a statue by an industrial process (casting of metal typically). All aspects of the statue's appearance governed by predefined aesthetic rules. The outside of the statue should be 'perfect' within the context of these rules. The inside is cleaned, treated and filled with a range of materials in order to make the inside also perfect from a devotional point of view.
Can a christian have a Buddha or yin yang statue?
From my (Buddhist) perspective, I don't see why not. Buddhism is a way to train the mind and is not concerned with deities, though the Buddha would say that the belief in any supreme being is a form of clinging, which will lead to suffering. But if the Buddhas message resonates with you, why not. As for Yin-Yang, that is a Daoist (Taoist) symbol represents how polar opposites interconnect and are interdependent to make a whole. This is truly a perspective (mental outlook) symbol, not religious. So again, from my perspective, why not. As a former Christian, I could see that a Buddha statue in a Christians house may offend some Christians, again for the reason that Buddha rejected any notions of a creator God or infinite lived deities.
