Any Hedgehog Owners?

My grandpa has been questioning me and my uncle about hedgehogs as he finds ads for them on craigslist. This got me wondering about them, so I did a little research and I'm considering buying one in the not-so-near-but-still-foreseeable future, but I need some advice from anyone who's had experience with them.

1. How much does the initial pet cost? Supplementary materials excluded. Side Note: I am aware that they cost more the younger they are.
2. Once the pet and cage are aquired, how much, generally speaking, would monthly maintenance costs be?
3. Would they require a hamster cage, or perhaps something more like a guinea pig cage?
4. Do/Did your hedgehogs ever have bouts of affection or favouritism towards you or others?

I had a male and female pair of them in the late 1990s. They were always kind of high strung, although they never tried to bite.
I couldn't even get them to breed. Mine never showed any affection.

I've heard that proper training at a young age can help them to become friendlier. I've read a few stories of hogs establishing a very heartfelt relationship with their owners. Odd stuff. But thanks for the info, I appreciate it.
