Shouldn't be hard to find one under $200.
Porter Cable 3x21 $124
Porter Cable 4x24 $196
Ryobi 3x21 $107
Makita 3x21 $129
Makita 4x24 $169
Hitachi 3x21 $115
Out of your range (but for reference)
Milwaukee 3x24 $219
Milwaukee 4x24 $225
I have the Hitachi 3x21 and have had very good results with it.
(all prices are from Whole Earth Access, SF Bay Area, 800-845-2000)
