Just picked up a nicely made Hitachi brad nailer shipped for $30.00. The fit and finish is flawless so for a reconditioned unit, it was a nice surprise.
I ran a number of test fires with some HF brads and the gun was more efficient that than the old HF gun that only lasted for 4 hours.
The picture in the link seems to be of the newer series - mine if the older metallic green finish. It's also made in Taiwan and included a new set of goggles and a blow-molded polyethylene case.
I've had good luck with their tools so far: P13F planer, 18V Ni-Cad combo set and 1/4 sheet finishing sander.
For those not too far from the Santa Clarita, CA area, Hitachi has a huge Western distribution center that stocks spare parts and accessories. Picked up a nice thin kerf 24T rip blade there (French made) for about $26.00.
