Ckeetly, I paid $270 for my Bauer 1000s. I looked high and low for the K2's online but to no avail. A guy I work with is a sponsored K2 snowboarder. He asked a sales rep friend of his about the skate for me, and he said they don't make them anymore.
One thing about the Bauer 1000's. The chassis is cut so that ONLY a 47mm wheel will fit. So you're kinda stuck buying their wheels @ $6 each. I have had them for about 6 months and I'm pretty pleased with them. Although I've went through quite a few wheels so far. The 1000 is much lower to the ground than the 5000. The 5000 uses 64mm wheels and are bullet shaped. The 47mm's are flat profile. The chassis sits lower too. Also, the damn 5000 is $430! I tried on a pair and I didn't feel much difference. I own the 5000 goal ice skate too.
I've never found any inline goalie skates at a "good" price. I've found the CCM's online too, but they were well over $200 also. They have them at sourcelondon.com but their prices are always high.
