Quill stem adaptor a good option?

I have a 1990 Trek I'd like to get a shorter stem length on. It's expensive to find quill stems anymore and I saw the quill adaptor posts that you tighten in and then bolt the modern neck onto. Anyone use these? Is this a decent option in order to fine tune my older bike? Will it end up heavier or more expensive than quill?

I don't have hundreds of dollars to convert my bike to threadless with new forks, although it would be sweet.
