Best brush on eBay for under $80? (Im in Australia)

[Athiril]

So I saw this thread on best value brush under $50 - http://badgerandblade.com/vb/showthread.php?t=158117

And it mentions
'Edwin Jagger Medium Best Badger ($40)'

That brush from an online (Australian) shop is $68 AUD, before shipping, I figured I could do better from an international source or eBay with a larger budget than that.

Everything in this country seems marked up quite high.

Any good recommendations off eBay or any sites that have decent shipping rates?

Also after some blades to replace the wilkinson swords on my DE... already got my shaving cream (got some Mem)


I found these in my search if anyone wants to offer opinions:

I still think the New Forest 2201 is the best value amongst your choices, the shipping should be more than reasonable off his ebay site.

Yes, the New Forest looks like a higher quality at a still affordable price. Should be less than 50 AUD, shipped, if you go direct - assuming you're going to use PayPal anyway.

I also think the 2201 is your best bet. The guy that's having them made ships anywhere for 2 GBP (pounds), which is amazing. It's cheapest to buy directly from him. Bottom of this page tells how to do that.
