You can still find them cheap, but just like anything else, if you buy something fully decked out, it will be expensive. Even in 96 you could find them for close to 10 grand. A buddies uncle had a Waverunner 1200 in the 90's and he payed almost 10 for it with trailor. Once they went to 4 stroke the price went up.
