You will get a cheap system for this price. Just remember you get what you pay for.
If you contact some of the suppliers here they have cheap kits.

I`m in the same boat man, but willing to pay cheap, but get the best in that budget as I can, does`nt make sense to get a crap camera, with crap quality, cause for when you need to view something and can`t make anything out, you`ll be kicking yourself.

I would say around the 300-500 mark would get you a good one, at least that`s from what I`ve found.

The HIKVISION Turbo HD is the best mega pixel analogue CCTV system on the market at the minute and way cheaper than IP

I thought that the CCD range are the better camera to get, all those Turbo ones are CMOS...?
