You've probably picked among the best in quality, but that means you
have to pay their prices.  I've used all three and have always been
satisfied.  George Ury often has interesting collectible equipment of
all kinds.  His prices are usually high, but sometimes surprisingly
low.  For example, I recently snagged the Canon twin-turret finder for
$150, a mere fraction of what I saw it advertised at shortly later.
