I got mine from Compute-ability for US$159.

They are now advertised by a different firm (name??) for $149 in the
midst of a huge two-page (blue) ad near the front of the latest PC-Mag
(the one with the big roundup of 486's on the cover).

The latest batch of Soundblasters DO NOT have the Stereo C/MS GameBlaster
chips onboard.  They come with empty sockets for those who still want them.

Anybody know where to buy C/MS chips?
