To be honest any bike shop should have paddocks stands, but they will almost certainly be more expensive than the Busters offer. Also you need to decide if you're going for bobbins or just a swing arm type. Most do both.

Do the best you can fettling / cleaning wise and order yourself one or two and save some dosh.

if it's just paddock stands you're after many bike shops such as Hein Gerrick hold them in stock, find the dealers in your local area and phone ahead. If you're going to get a rear padock stand, buy one that can use hooks and bobbins or cups. Even if you don't buy hooks and bobbins for it today you may want to later on, they're easier and more stable IMO

i've got this one. It can use either pick-up method with the advantage that the bobbin supports can be bolted at the correct width so less fiddling about and also the handle detatches to make it a lot neater. I only paid 30 quid new for mine.
A link that doesn't screw up the page layout, not like the one that was here before.
