The purchase of these items can be compared to that of a watch. Buy a timex and you'll buy another buy a Rolex and you'll have it for along time. Pay now or later via multiple purchases your choice,but you'll pay!
If I remember correctly my set was in excess of $3,000, but I don't forsee needing another for quite sometime.
P.S. When I got my 1971 Whaler it came with the original canvas (37 years old) I could have easily made due with it for some time !
