Yeah well they are odd / difficult. 1. それで買おうと思ったら、そのとなりあるのが良さそうに見えたんだ。 When I went to by that the one next to it seemed to be good. (So maybe the speaker bought the other one instead). 2. 割れそうに茶碗の音をさせている。 ? Making it sound like a tea cup when it was about to break ?

He/She is treating a tea cup so violently that it is likely to be divided(broken?)? or There is such a loud sound that a tea cup is likely to be divided? 誰かがその茶碗を、割ってしまうほど乱暴に扱っている。 （だから大きな音が鳴っている） or 茶碗が割れてしまうほど大きな音が鳴っている。 かな？？ :? 英語があってるかどうかわからないけど。

Click to expand... Hmm, yes that makes a bit more sense. How about "Ringing the tea cup (so roughly) that it is likely to break" ? Although it could be the loud sound one.
