I have been in the market for hot water radiators for the past several months, and I have found that price varies greatly. They are generally charged for buy the section, and I have seen them priced from $2.50 a section to $10.00 a section. The price that you were charged seems a bit high, but that will depend on the area of the country you are in, and if this price included installation then thats not a bad price. To my knowledge you can not get NEW radiators that is why old radiators command such a price. You can get cast iron baseboard, but that is also expensive. Hot water radiators are worth the price for good even heat.
