I'd suggest that you get Greg Maxwell's book "The More Complete Chondro" It can be purchased from his website at www.finegtps.com It lists the different types in there and what is the most common look to each. Biaks tend to be more nippy, although I have a cross that is quite nice. They tend to have more yellow and are usually larger than the mainland types. Sorongs tend to have a nice green with a pretty blue dorsal stripe, Jayapura's can also. They can also be sort of a one tone green. Here's what my Sorong and Jayapura type matured to. My one Biak is still changing so there's no telling how it will look. I've put a picture there for you to see what it looks like right now. For $400 you should be able to get a nice captive born and bred animal, most likely a Biak or some other mainland like a Sorong or Jaya type. Meraukes, Arus and designer types are usually much more as are red neonates. I bought my first two from Troy Frantz at Frantz Herpetological (my Sorong and Jayapura) and they've been terrific animal and came with certificates stating they were cbb. Make sure you don't get an import as they end up costing more in vet bills than they're worth. Anyway...here's the Sorong-Tempest(yellow neonate)
The Jaypura-Whisper(red neonate)
The Biak-Surprise(red neonate)
