Exclamation Where do you buy servos from

So I've searched the web for places to buy servos from and found some that were a lot cheaper than others and wanted to get some input as to where everyone buys servos from. I've found hitec 7980 for $110-$175 not sure if the lower side would be knock offs comin from japan

If it says Hi Tec and looks like their logo then its a Hi Tec. I get them on eBay and from servocitty.com when they have sales.

I wasn't saying that knocks come from Japan but every price that's around 110 is coming from Japan so I just don't want to buy one and have it not be a real hitec servo

Troybuilt was the one Ive been looking and will probably buy from. I found the site a while ago and thought they had good prices.

I've bought servos from them several times. They ship fast and have really good prices.
