So I mentioned when I joined the forum that I am a complete and total noob. I do not own a shave brush, soap, safety razor, anything. I am thinking of piecing together a proper shave kit one piece at a time, and I would like to start with the brush and a couple of soaps. I was looking at a couple of different badger brushes on the internet, and I want something that is of decent quality but won't break the bank. Here were two that I was considering, both made by Parker Safety Razor:

http://www.amazon.com/Parker-Safety-Razor-Bristle-Shaving/dp/B002ET1ATU/ref=pd_sbs_hpc_2
Anybody have any experience with these? Are they pretty good brushes? I am trying to keep it in and around the $30 area but preferably under that number if I can. If anyone has any other recommendations for a brush in this range I would love to hear it. Thanks guys!
