Good plossls

We have all seen advice that teleview plossls and Celestron Ultima type eyepieces represent top of the range for a 50 degree field of view at reasonably affordable prices.

What about others not as expensive? What would you recommend to someone on a budget who wants to buy a few extra plossls ?

The Andrews plossls I got with my GS dob are shockers compared with the "silvertop" plossls I got with a Saxon dob. Comparing the 10mm silvertop to a 12.5mm Ultima I was hard pressed to see a difference, whereas it was instantly apparent that the Andrews plossls were inferior. Silly me sold the silvertops with the saxon dob.
If I knew where to get silvertop plossls of the same type I would happily recommend them to others.

Which reasonably priced plossls would you recommend to others?
