Bruce,

Demand has definitely gone up in the past few years. 16mm cameras are
getting popular again and the fact that they are no longer being
manufactured, it will be tricky to find a reasonable price. Good luck!
Perhaps checking Craigslist where the seller is not aware of the
competitive prices of these machines might be a good bet.
