If it's an R/C prop, it could be really cheap or really expensive. It depends on the type, whether it comes balanced or not, and where it's made. It varies. For example, my Aero team buys a particular brand of props. They're made in Australia, and shipping is kind of...well...not cheap. Then the props are carbon fiber. More not cheap. We do the balancing, so that saves a little money. But for your plastic, cheap type, it's not going to be nearly as expensive.
