Wait, you're having trouble just buying things off ebay, and now you're thinking about buying 10 heads plus freight charges from an overseas manufacturer?

I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if the heads turned out fine, or even good. But it doesn't sound like the right road for you to go down. You'd have to shell out a lot of dough, and you'd find yourself having to find 9 other people to buy the surplus.
