Default where to buy REPLACEMENT TOP?

i was searching through the forum last night and came across a topic of replacing the soft top on our cars. i have been thinking about venturing in to try it my self and came across a DIY guide that was fully documented and had step by step with full pictorials on here. i printed it off and i think im gonna try it. now i just need to find a top and order it. the top that was used in this topic was the Robbins auto top. the highly recommended it as did others on the post. i found their website but couldnt buy it directly from them. so now im at the position as of where to buy it. i dont want to just trust any ole website on the google searches cuz i wanna make sure i buy a quality product. plz help. have any of you purchased the top or know of another good brand? also where and how did you purchase the top. thanks for all the help in advance guys!

From what I can gather this place tops are robbins soft tops.

Cabrio World

You can also try here. Just see if you can find a place locally that sells it.

Robbins

It looks like they raised the prices a bit on the tops though. I was pretty certain you could get them for less then 700$.

are there any other tops that are a good quality for a decent price? from what i understand the OEM replacement from honda is only about 800 so if they are the same price i think i would prefer the OEM anyhting else out there?

well i was clicking through the forum again and noticed one of the third party advertising things was topspnline.com i searched for the 2000 with the glass window and came up with a price of 614.21 shipped. that was the "stayfast" material. what is this and is it worth the extra money. also is this a creditable source? are they legit? if all this adds up it sounds like a pretty good deal. need everyone elses input on this
