See Shibui on the forums.
One of the fabulous things about growing bonsai is as you get old and decrepit your trees get old and beautiful

Depends on your definition of 'mature'.
I currently have a trident I'd call mature available. It is around 20 years old with well developed branches and priced at just $900.
$100 - $150 will get a 5-7 cm trunk with no real branches from Shibui Bonsai.

Maybe someone else might have a smaller trident with some branches that are part developed in that price range but I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for them.

Thanks guys, I'll definetly be going to YVBS. I headed to Geelong this morning hoping there would be nice example but come up short. On a positive note I grabbed a great little paper bark.

Thanks for the reply Shibui. Definetly doesn't have to be 20yrs.
And I don't mind by any means if it has been a air layer. Just after a little size to the trunk
