I found this by just typing ';gas mask for sale'; in google.

I once found myself in a Taco Bell with a certain ';documentary'; filmmaker, and when he was finished devouring his meal . . . well, let's just say that I would have paid ANY amount of money for a gas mask. ANY!!!!!
Save your money. The odds of you having it handy at the time and place where it's needed and actually using it properly, if it's EVER needed are exceedingly small. You'd be better off taking the eighty bucks or so and buying lottery tickets. Far more likely you'll hit the powerball than encounter a chem/bio attack.
Starting out for good gas masks is around 160 then upwards after that. And unless you really know how to use it and have had to in pressure situations when you are being gassed, there is a good chance you might not be proficient at how to clear the mask or even get a seal that is tight enough to prevent anything coming into the mask.
Another thing you need to realize is that a gas attack by terrorist is not the most likely scenario and a mask isn't really going to do much good...gas attacks are really the biggest threat in mass transit situations, and I think it's not that likely that everytime someone is on the subway, they want to haul the gas mask with them. Hope that helps!
If this will help you, you can find better prices and a larger variety of gas masks throughout the world on eBay. I have several here from Israel, Russia and USA. All military specs and have ranged in price from $25 to $80. Run a search for ';gas mask'; in the query line on the eBay site and watch what pops up. I hope this helps you and you find it useful
I'll protect you.
Well this one web site they start at $98.00 and come sealed in a long term storage pouch with NBC filters.
I like the Homeland Hood model just below the masks.
This other web site while it does a fair bit of Fear mongering actually provides a good service showing some of the useless surplus masks that are out there and would not provide any kind of protection or could be more damaging with toxic expired filter canisters.
