Question Dilema

Rick at Little Shavers just told me that due to a vendor problem, he is out of stock (indefinitely) of his beginner's kits.
Would anyone here know of something comparable in quality and price?
Thanks.

To be honest, I would go with his startup carver's kit. While the beginner's kit may be ok for the money, the operative phrase here is "for the money". The startup kit contains higher grade tools for just a little more money.
