Where's the best site to get a starter kit from?

I'm looking at getting the $80 one on this page:
http://www.thebeeressentials.com/sta...rter_kits.html

With shipping it's like $106. Is that a good deal? What else should I
order with it?


These starter kits are a pretty good way to get going without too much
outlay. You might save a few dollars looking around but not bad prices. I
would recommend you look around for a 5 gallon carboy to match the 6 and
some 1/2 gal jugs. It is good to rack into a 5 gal carboy and a 1/2 gal jug
so you do not have a problem topping up. If you go into this hobby
seriously you will be replacing the corker with a floor model but the one
that comes with it is adequate to get started. Also get some extra airlocks
and rubber bungs to fit the jugs.

Are you getting a kit wine or what to start with?
