Also check these out. http://www.chamonixviewcamera.com/45.html They turn up used on occasion too. I have never used one but Chamonix's are versatile, very light and said to be quite stable. They are really popular today.
I asked you which lenses you plan on using because I used to own a Tachihara. It had a bellows draw of 13" and could focus a 300mm at infinity but not close focus for portraits. Some 4x5 field cameras only have 12" of bellows draw which may or may not be fine for you. My Tachihara did not support a bag bellows but could use a 90mm on a flat board and a 65mm in a recessed board. Wider lenses than 65mm would not work. Used Tachi's are also in your budget.
If you like wood take a look at Chamonix, Shen Hao, Wista, Tachihara, and Zone Vl. For metal cameras look at Wista and Toyo.
