Edit: I was originally trying to keep it under $30, but I've read some bad things about the Origin8 quill stem...
Never give your money to Origin 8. Get the dia compe, you will not regret it. Not to mention it's dirt cheap compared to what I've purchased in the past.
You can also scrounge up a used nitto quill stem on fleabay on the cheap; you can't go wrong with nitto either.
