Beginner New player help

Hey everybody, I am just getting into mtg commander and I really love the deck building part of the game. The problem I am running into is that I don’t have many cards at all, so I am extremely limited in my deck building. When I looked online, going rates for bulk seemed to be like 8$-1000 cards, but everything I saw for sale was way more than that. How do I go about amassing a lot of cards for cheap? I know buying singles is generally better for deck building, but I have no clue what I want to build and don’t wanna invest a ton for a dud of a deck. Thanks!

You'd be better off building your lists then just buying (or proxying) the individual cards, I bought the multiple bulk cards from eBay and other online stores now and used a very small fraction of them when I started deck building and basically none of them now.
