bought from joo beng. cause factored in shipping n gst n everything comes to about 100 less than what joo beng is selling at. but there's warranty from joo beng so its worth it..warranty is pretty impt, cause i've read online reviews of these mounts shipping with problems.'joo beng = astrobargains if u're unfamiliar
