Hmmm.. I guess RSL Classic or RSL No.2 is a very good shuttle comparing the prices to Yonex and some other brands, For No.1, don't really like it personally. here is the price of RSL shuttlecocks in melbourne. Sorry don't know how to reduce the size....
RSL has really decent shuttles,been playing with them for couple years now and is very satisfied with them for the value u get for how much u pay
I guess price around $20.00 is acceptable. If you looking for the shuttlecocks online (ebay or other website), their price are reasonable BEFORE adding the postage........ If you ask a ebay seller to deal outside of ebay they mind reduce the price but just made sure it's safe.

None to minimal wobbling and a smooth, predictable flight path. The control with each shuttle was excellent as well, as was the speed..... I was so impressed with the duck grade shuttles that if I were to play with or against any Pro, I would have no problem using the two duck grade shuttles! ...." ; " Here's a mini-review:
Anyone know where to find affordable shuttles in AU these days? I've been using Aeroplane black for $31/tube from Badminton Supplies since I can buy them in-store.
I think you're already using the best bang for buck w Aeroplane Black. Have you tried asking for a discount if buying in bulk?
You can try RCL Black Gold & Silver. Another one is Sealion C1101G. They are at par with RSL Supreme and Yonex AS 30. I can ship to you samples or you can buy some from my friend in Sdyney
