under 100.00 - you see all kinds of crazy prices, but they rarely sell for alot. Many times you can also get them for free. Just start telling folks you know you would like one...someone may have a grandma that has one that is sitting in the basement.

Depending on where you buy them determines the price. If you buy from a shop that they put some work on you will pay anywhere from $150 to $250 - but from a private party it is much less. (Except where people think they have a gold mine in Grandma's sewing machine.)
