You bet!
But if you want the kind for writing with while pretending to smoke a pipe and being all sorts of pretentious, your best bet is probably Craigslist or perhaps a thrift store. No idea where you live, but there are several in my area. I suppose you could also try eBay if you don't mind going that route. Starting from near the bottom of THIS PAGE, there are plenty for about $50 and up, including shipping. Not a shabby deal. Of course, if you want one of those old typewriters that were available before the electric and portable models, you're definitely going to pay more than $50. Probably a lot more.

what's a typewriter? just kidding, man I forgot we used to have those things back in the day. It would drive me crazy not being able to instantly erase mistakes like on computers these days.
[quote name='whoknows']That actually sounds like a lot of fun.
I want a typewriter now.[/QUOTE]
It does, I do that, minus the pipe and pretentious part... except mine doesn't work and I haven't had time to take it into a shop. It stopped advancing when you type/space. :/

Actually, a lot of typewriters allowed you to do that (they would apply a little strip of white-out for you). It's not quite the same, but hey, it's something.
