Cost about $28 for the set on eBay Link to seller here (China) $45 on Amazon.com
These triggers are very reliable and do a good job. They are not Canon and Nikon specific! The eBay sellers always use multiple brand names in their offerings to get “hits” while searching their products. A very big plus is the fact that you can also use them with studio strobes using the cable that comes with it.
NOTE: The only camera specific thing is, if you need a camera remote you have to order the right brand name, the triggers/receivers are non brand specific. The remote cable is as that has to fit into your camera. However if you only need these triggers for your flashes don’t bother about what brand they fit.
Using the set as a remote shutter. The cord you see here is brand name specific, it is not a flash-cable!
This is the set used as a studio-flash trigger, this is a universal cable (Not brand specific) with the 6.35mm plug and the 3.5 mm plug.

I just ordered a set of these triggers and will write a little review after I used them for a little. Looks like a nice set.
I now have these triggers for about 4 weeks. They are really great, used them on every flash I have and on Alien Bees, they never failed. Also used the remote trigger combined with flash, works great too. These triggers are highly recommended. For the price and quality you can’t go wrong.
My only problem is that the transmitter does not fit snug enough on the camera and can fall off. Although not really a nice solution but a little gaffer-tape does the trick.
