As someone earlier posted, you're not going to find anything but "student" grade guitars in the $700-900 rand you are considering. Some student guitars are better than others and you might find one that would serve your needs as an introduction to the world of nylon strings and classical style instruments.
My personal experience was with a Alhambra 7P. It was a huge step above the cheep introductory guitars you are seeing but still what would be considered a "student" grade instrument. (price was $1795 new)
The $400 guitars you are finding are not at all what you are looking for and not representative of the world of classical guitars. There are a lot of junk nylon stringed instruments, there are some decent intermediate level instruments, and then there is the world of concert classicals. The latter are not found in big box musical stores. When you finally come across one it will blow you away...and the price will probably finish you! (smile)
Good luck in your search,
Dave
