They were ~$100 each.

In retrospect I really wish I got wireless wifi cameras (they hook up to your router, and you can view them from your iphone/android) and they have tilt/pan functionality. If i was you I'd get wifi cameras with tilt/pan off amazon.com. They come with software that lets you set up recording on a computer + you can view them remotely. That's what I wish I got

As far as installing them goes, unless you like to go into your attic it's a pain. I was walking around on the trusses for a good hour trying to fish the lines into place.
wow vcr's are the good old days.
