I got my female pastel Het clown for $1200 last year.
The lowest I've seen this year was around $750-800 for a low quality female. Female clowns in the 1k+ area....

I would continue to save up for a pair of pastel Het clowns. Your budget seems a little on the low side unless you want a male pastel het clown and normal het clown female
