It is sort of like the quality of hay.
Brand new, freshly bailed dry hay is one price and of an expected and accepted quality level for ANYBODY,
The hay that's already been thru the horse or came from a weed filled field just isn't nor will it ever be of the quality of good, fresh hay - but it surely will be cheaper.
Buy the best chuck that you can barely afford - by doing so, you won't be disappointed nor waste a lot of time chasing your tail while dialing parts in with a cheap chuck.
