See Dogtemple's reply.
It was more of a general point though: like BLB, I find Park Tool over-priced for what they are.
Comparing the PRS-20 I have and the Feedback Sports Sprint that I was considering, the PT is rather more agricultural in construction and a less sophisticated design.
It is also heavier and has a lower capacity.
They both retail for around £200, which makes the PT over-priced for me and reflects my experience of PT in general.
They've built up the brand as the "nice but pricey" of the tool world, but the premium you pay doesn't get you the quality I'd expect.

Damn you I'm now lusting after those pro elite work stands..
@Dogtemple, give me a couple of days to think about it, seriously considering it. Just a question of whether I buy yours or treat myself to one of those pro elite stands..

which cheaper, equally capable stands do you speak of?
