I have paid $1/pound or less for many of my anvils. Whether that is a steal of a deal or not is debatable as is evident from the numerous threads that drone on about that magic number...
Edit, I forgot about the Champion 400 I got for free, the large Vulcan firepot I got for free, my current forge and blower that I got for free, I have about 5 leg vises I paid less than $30 each for, my 10" Wissota bench grinder I paid $30 for and the list goes on. I just watch local online classifieds very closely. As soon as I see the ad I contact the seller.
