Another dumb glow plug thread

I figured there would already be a thread on this but i didnt find one. Im curious to knw what brand of glow plugs you guys like. I have always ran beru and had good luck but i see i can buy some on ebay for roughly $60 per set where as beru run about $110. What should i do?

24 million threads on this, BERU only. Only 19 million threads of swollen and broken off gp's of various other brands.

Beru. PO had Autolites, and all but one was dead. Two with tips gone, damaging the crown of one piston (not too bad, still running it with dinged up piston)
