I bought a used unicycle that the guy spent $1,200 Canadian including
upgrades.

'This one ' (http://www.unicycle.com/Shopping/shopexd.asp?id=101)is
$1,600, and you could spend a few hundred more on a better saddle.

Prices have really come down recently!

my freestyle unicycle cost over $1000.

wyganowski frame is a few hundred
48 spoke wheel with a decent rim another hundred or so
miyata saddle
2 pairs of cranks about 50
rubber pedals, non marking tyre, seat post clamp

and then it cost almost 200 to ship it from america to perth because
at the time there were no other suppliers i could get from.

the biggest thing that killed my bank account was the currency
conversion.
i think at the time it was about 1USD to 1.6AUD. so all in all i paid
over $1000.

Isn't a new Schlumpf about $1500? That may have been it. Or build your
own 2-speed unicycle, keep track of your hours of labor, and see if you
can do it any cheaper...

The touring unicycles are quite expensive, Dave Stockton's work doesn't
come cheap, however it doesn't break when you're 500km from home
either..

Once it arrives and is fully paid for (is it in the mail yet, Dave?!)
it's going to have been over 1000$, easily.

If you have a $1,500 unicycle, you shouldn't have any problems. Custom
frame, custom wheel, custom seat, Magura Brakes, high end seatpost and
seat clamp. You can easily have $1,500. Keep in ming that price is
all relative. For a 16 year old, that seems like a lot of money, to a
40 year old, it's an inexpensive toy.

Great wheel no doubt. Is it in the mail yet?😄 That's a good one.

I wouldn't call it inexpensive, but I know what you're getting at -
it's all relative to how much spare money you've got to start with.
Certainly a unicycle is far less expensive than an equivalent bike
though (but it should be, most of the bits are missing :p).

also, compared to say, a nice car, a top of the line uni is almost dirt
cheap.

pdc, I'm going to steal your coker once I figure out where you live😉

I take umbrage with this comment not because it betrays ignorance but
because it insults others. Insulting others when you don't have enough
information seems pretty stupid, but I don't want to say that it IS
stupid in this case because I don't have enough information. But a few
more posts like that one and I'll feel a bit more confident in my
assessment.

On the subject of expensive unis, I have only two ego problems: my
Stockton-built Coker deluxe with the Wyganofsky (sp?) extention and the
2nd-generation Schlumpf guni (also with a Wyg. extention). And I'm
planning to get another ego problem in a few weeks: That gorgeous
yellow muni in the link (or something just like it).
