Well as you ride more you go faster, (in my case, not much faster) longer and learn more. I started out with Gel shorts. Horrible. I soon learned that more padding was not always better. I have since tried Pearl Ultrasensors, Campanolo and the Castelli KISS bib. Some people swear by ASSOS and I have always wondered if they are really worth the $$$$. For short rides of 25 or less, most any bib is ok. As I said, I did 66 last year and wondered if a ASSOS would have made the last miles more comfortable.

I've owned two of the 3 you mention above and the Uno is a big improvement on both for me. Much better chamois and better fit.
I might suggest buying locally if you can just to be sure you get the right fit. Then you can go ebay or whatever later if needed.
Note, Assos fit anatomically correct for a riding postion. They WILL NOT be comfortable standing up. Check out the review here:

They also have good write ups for all three. Here's the Uno:
