Looking for a nicely priced wort chiller. Did my first batch without one but it'd probably be a lot easier to use one of these and I won't have to waste my money buying ice. Anyone selling one?

I just used the lowes 25' copper coil and formed it around a can (I used a scuba tank) and used a small, hand held bender to form the in and out lengths. I also got fancy and put some hose connectors so i could break it down for storing but that is totally optional. It works great and i love the fact I made it myself. Total cost was somewhere around the $25 - $35 range.
I was at (b)Lowes yesterday and priced a 25 ft roll of 1/2 inch copper and it $53 and change. I am thinking it wouldn't be much more to just buy one off of the on line home brew supply stores.
