I got a set of Vivitar tubes, for a good price I think (15 pounds all in).
They seem well constructed.  Can't imagine that any third party tubes could
have any problem other than flimsy construction, but these seemed decent.  I
gave them to my sister for her birthday - wish i'd kept them now because I
haven't seen them anything like as cheap since!
