Blacksmiting tools

[TNWNGR]

I've been looking around for some used basic blacksmithing tools as well as looking at anvils. A few years back this stuff was expensive used but still a lot cheaper then new. Now it's almost crazy price wise. I'm seeing seriously used anvils priced near new anvil prices. Wow. All I wanted to do was tinker around with some hobby stuff, I can already see that this has gotten more expensive then I remembered.

Aside from CL and auctions where else should I be looking? If I do get some more tooling I'm going to keep it very basic.

I saw 3 anvils at the flee market last month, do not remember the price, only 1 rang like a bell.
