I checked Ebay. I can't see the exact order I placed anymore but it appears this tripods are marketed by lots of people including Velbon.
Mine cost $228 but they seemed to have come down in price. This looks the same as what I got which I like a lot:

Around $168 or less on ebay from several different sellers.
