Oh wow, I took a look. Not really a decent one under $100. I got really lucky when I found mine. I was looking around a tiny second-hand shop in my middle-of-nowhere town tucked inside a case for a different camera. I think the lady gave me it for $12 or something. Maybe you'll find a lucky polaroid.

my first one i bought off a friend who found it at a yard sale for $5. the second one i got for free from a friend who works in a hospital, and she found in a locker there in their basement. this is the one i broke.
the one i bought for $5 i traded with =evile33 for a lens worth $$$$.
she just bought me one off of ebay though, and it arrived on friday (and it works!).
so we're trading camera equipment back and forth here, i'm keeping my eyes open for something really cool to send her as a thank you
(i already sent her 3 packs of instant film as a start, but a new sx-70 requires BIGGER gifts i think)

my favorite camera died shortly after i shot this (like only minutes later!); i dropped it and it hit the concrete hard and broke in so many pieces it's unrepairable
at the cemetery, how fitting is that? and do you see the upside down cross to the left of the statue? is that a sign or what?

yes, it is
but interesting effect also

it's so full of hints and symbols that it starts to get scarry
it must be in camera's heaven now
call me blind, but I don't see the cross
