Looking for a "deal" on a rebounder?

I'm looking for a great deal on a rebounder. Any suggestions? (Yes, I tried Goodwill.)

Does anyone have this one? It's the cheapest I see so far. ($30) http://www.amazon.com/Variflex-38-In...ords=rebounder

I have this one:

http://www.amazon.com/Pure-Fun-40-In...+fun+rebounder

and I like it. It has the springs, though. The one you linked to is bands. I just bought one of the higher end rebounders and so far, the jury is still out.

What would be the performance difference between the springs and the bands?

If you just want a cheap rebounder, Walmart's was about the cheapest and easiest to return if unhappy with it.

After wasting lots of money trying different types of rebounders, I would suggest to get the cheapest Jumpsport Fitness Trampoline bungee at $199.
All others (springs and bands) are jarring.
Bungees are definitely a better bounce.

Yeah, I think I just want a cheap one. At least at first 'til I determine for certain if I like it. (I want to try it bc it sounds like "quiet" yet intense-ish cardio that won't disturb my neighbor.)

If you're looking for quiet, avoid springs. They squeak.
