i am in the market for a music stand. i want one that is not flimsy, within $30, and possibly portable. i have had flimsy stands, which work fine on gigs, but i dont care for them. i am wantig a stand primarily for practice at home, but versatile enough to take with..

i have found these 2. ($25, and 20 respectively)

and http://www.musiciansfriend.com/produ...and?sku=450812

does anyone have any opinions on these, or others (including cost and place of purchase)

thank you.

also, if you are in the sf bay area, and looking to sell a stand let me know.

That's the one I have, I'm a fan.

The manhasset reminds me too much of symphonic band in HS...shudder.

The second one you posted in the OP looks considerably crappy.
