You did fine! Being world wide alternate sources are important, especially costs... I found that obtaining the basic testing relase as a package (1-18) about as cost effective as searching all over and tracking them down....and much more convenient.... the exceptions were the add ons by a few dollars.
Also it seems to me that unless a person wants to build their own ferrites, as many of us have done, (or use other type loops) ordering the Friese is a superb choice, and the cost is totally reasonable....they are well made, and characteristics and standardization are important.
