I am looking to buy a house plant (more like a small tree or a big cactus than a little flowering thing). What are reliable stores to get one at, or has anyone had luck using craigs list or ebay? What is a fair price (this might sound dumb, but I've never bought one before)?

An outdoor garden shop that specializes in many types of plants so you can the different types of plants and ask questions of the sales staff.
A fair prices depends on where you live. In Los Angeles in more costly than in Beaumont, Texas.

Since you have no idea, I would get a plant book and do some research to find what plant interests you.The book will give you all the information you need to know about the plant that catches your fancy. Don't look for anything unusual or exotic. They are the hardest to grow and maintain for the grower and the store that is selling them This kind of plant will always have a higher cost. A big cat us will ALWAYS be expensive because they are so slow growing. Without knowing your home environment or skill and I had to recommend a large plant, I would suggest a palm (after you see if you can give it a happy home )

Go to your local nursery or other places which sell plants and take about
$ 20.00. Don't go over board until you get the hang of taking care of them.
