I think about 2500 in US$ terms but I researched the purchases and got some good deals and overall think I got value for money.

Then our group went on to get ADVANCED open water certifed, which coast about another 150 to 170, with 6 specialities, same cost for gear, boat rides etc, andr it was about 4 more trips. Then me and my new dive buddy did some beach diving, so likeI picked it was pretty close to 1K.
Granted I have far surpassed that in the last year, and will pass it again by far the next couple of years. But I have spent more on my 50 cal pistol, and my two wonderful 45's
