Try this site, it has tons of info.

Look on the second or third pages in the lizard classifeids, moonlight pets has babies for sale as well as a couple of adults. I think they go for $95 per baby and at least $200 for an adult.
Good Luck

Yea I think that they are easy to take care of, if you can take proper care of chameleons, I doubt that cresties will be a challenge.
