Don't have to pay that much over 30 sometimes to get a great rda. Im getting an igo w3 for like 20 bucks with a driptip and it has 5 posts so building my quad coil will be easy as cake.
Great adjustable airflow is a must, you would be hard pressed to find a solid stainless (no plated brass posts) RDA with proper adjustable airflow for less than $50.
Proper meaning ability to do single and dual coil with single and dual coil airholes.

If AFC is a must, I'm really impressed with the Brass Monkey I recently got. It comes with 2 caps. The ss cap has AFC. Also comes with a brass cap. But the brass cap doesn't have AFC. U.S. made. Pretty good bang for the buck.
Is the Brass Monkey not a high end Helios clone?
Here is a link to the Trident v2, in stock and $125: http://www.vaporlifeusa.com/Trident-V2-Direct-Drip-RDA-Atomizer-p/trident-v2.htm
They also have The Atomic in stock but it's $140 for some insane reason.
I never put my preferred RDA out there.
The Magma
O-ringless, juice well, up to 3mm dual air hole (with single airhole capability), welded posts...and a partridge in a pear tree.

The Brass Monkey is a little cheaper than the Helios. Similar set up though. I like the twin positive post screws.
It's my next RDA for certain, I had been stalking the Atomic but not being 22mm and such a shallow deck turned me off. The Magma has no turnoffs IMO.
I'll probably jump on it too. That juice well is a super cool idea.
I don't like the Origen, vertical coils and separate juice wells.
I may wait for the Magma as upon deeper research there are a couple of almost issues, the 510 connection only has a few threads on it and the intake airhole is only 2mm making the 3mm adjustable airflow nonfunctional. This may be resolved now but I'm unsure, I would recommend contacting the vendor before purchasing.
I will go into further detail, the 510 is fine with few threads but is wobbly until screwed down.
The 2mm air intake in the bottom of the Magma doesn't allow the 3mm adjustable airflow to actually give 3mm worth of flow. If you don't mind these two issues then grab one now, personally I'm waiting til they are resolved.

Ahh and you have got it. Sounds like this thing is a beauty. A little pricy but appears to be well worth it!
I was looking into it and loved it but gave up when it was near impossible to find one that was in stock!
I have tried the Atomic, Helios, Nimbus, and Trident in the last month.
I found the Atomic to be the best; great flavor, easy to build, highest quality, AFC for one or two holes. Helios was a close second.
Magma looks good, but i heard from someone recently that they get VERY messy with no o-rings and lots of splatter on the coil deck.
The Origen looks really cool... but like many of these, you gotta catch them in the short time they are in stock.

I agree the Atomic is a great RDA, impossible to get at the MSRP and not 22mm. I love the design of it and if I found it in stock for $90 it would be a no brainer. The Origin having separated juice wells is just bad design to an otherwise great RDA, I haven't heard of the Magma leaking because of o-rings but because of over filling and it leaking through the airflow control holes.
You have a link of someone stating it leaks from where it screws together?
