I have never seen an Ae Ae sell for $50, though I hear that does happen in Hawaii were they are much more common.

I know of one source that sells them on-site in the USA for $100 when they have them and another that sells them for $125, but most are much higher. Why should they sell them for less when they can easily get more on eBay?
The 6 footer was $180 and I think my first one was like $125-135. I, too have the standing search going on eBay. Most of the time you will see them for much less than $80 until the final seconds of the auction. Then it is anyone's guess.
