DHGate plates seem to be what many people are ordering now. Combine them with a decent press like a Dake B10. They have great reviews and are much less expensive than most of the all-in-one presses. I am considering them, myself. I just need to find the best price and deal on the best press now....researching them now.

Timefoxwizard on ig makes kick ass plate setups complete with heat controls, elements and pre press mold. Excellent value. You will need a press though. Catch harbor freight with a 25% off coupon and get the 12 or 20 ton. It will need some mods though. Upgrade the bolts to grade 8 and replace the deck pins with hardened steel. Unless you like shitting your britches then having to buy a new press or just doing that anyway.

It's not a bad idea to get more tonnage from the press depending on the size of the plates. If you're using large plates, then the psi decreases dramatically. The larger the surface area of the plates, the less pressing power you will have.
4 x 7" plates here

These are the ones I'm thinking about...but maybe they will go on sale for Black Friday(?) Pretty good deal from the looks of it. There are a few different variations of rosin plate sets they sell. This one looked like the best one to me:

Don't have to buy a drill and tap set to DIY one...Don't have to worry about the plates being flat/polished....The heater elements are the larger one...the controller is probably not great...but who knows? I'm willing to bite at this price!
