It's worth watching forums like Photrio and the US based but International LF forum as there are cameras listed at decent prices.
Bear in mind that buying from outside the EU is likely to attract around 33% in duties as Import tax is based on the Item and Postage, then VAT is added on top with a handling charge to collect the money.
Currently there's an MPP MKVIII for $260 inc shipping from Japan, and a Linhof Color Kardan (old but nice) monorail same seller and price. Those are fair prices so a good guide to what you/we should be paying for cameras. The MkVIII uses different lens boards tto the earler MkIII to MkVII and they are harder to find and expensive,. Most think the MkVII is the best MPP.
LF prices are significantly higher here in the UK so it is worth buying from abroad.
