Unfortunately, I think $250/fender is closer to reality. If you find a $50
source, let me know!

Seems a bit high in my estimation...but I guess whatever the market will
bear.
I'd look at it this way, if the $250.00 fender is an "A1" fender (no rust,
no bondo job repair, maybe a few minor dings), then buy it because it's a
good starting point to use.
You may be able to find a fender in the same shape for $50.00, but it may
take you two years of searching.
