I dunno about prices, but an A/C system consists of: compressor, drier/accumulator, evaporator core, condensor, blower motor with ductwork, and interconnecting lines. You also need a switch to power the compressor, and one for the blower motor.

if you can find a decent junkyard, you can probably get everything for around $100-$150, just look at all the parts, if they are dirty, but dry, they should be good, on the compressor, you should also be able to turn the center of the clutch by hand, it should feel smooth, it will jerk some as it tries to compress the air in it, but you shouldnt feel any thing like rust/grinding

It's gonna be difficult to find, but you'd be better off if you can get the parts from a car in which none of the A/C has been disconnected. Moisture is bad for A/C components (especially the compressor.)

Maybe find someone who's stripping their A/C in the name of weight reduction??
