The cost of an item, and its availability, varies amongst the traders and is controlled by their individual text files. Availability is also Storyline dependent with the good stuff only coming out later in the game.

For individual items the cost is the BASE COST that is found in the text files, in this case inside 'devices.ltx'



With the implementation of the Xray PDA Skills module in DC, the price CHARGED by the various traders may vary even more depending on how far the player pads his/her Barter skill.

There's been no change in the base cost between 1.3003 and 1.4002, but plenty of trader file tweaking has been going on...
