I'm racing with a Quantum main which was new last year and am happy with it Steve and I both had good boat speed against each other so I would sail it was sail handling and luck that made a difference head to head the real question is what kind of sailing and racing are you going to do? are you going to roll the main? is the going to be used for racing or cruising? flogging which will happen when day sailing will probably age a main faster than anything

For anyone looking, these are the prices I collected, valid for roughly 30days:
North - Nordac ND78HA (7oz) $2678 Radian NDR75 (tri-radial) $3428 3DL 600 Aramid $5710
Quantum - Contender 7oz $3270 DP 300 SF HTP+ $3450 MR3000 Poly (membrane) $4140 DP Flex19 Poly (tri-radial) $3347
UK - DP 280 AP 6.5 $3124 DP 280 AP HTP $4575 Tapedrive Silver $4234
Doyle - DP 300 SF HTP $3470 DP Flex 16 Poly (tri-radial) $3095
Haarstick - Challenge 7.62 VF $2340 DP 280 AP HTP $2690 DP Flex 15 Stealth (tri-radial) $3500 Loadpath Carbon (membrane) $4750
These are standard build; loose foot, reef, cunningham, full-top, luff cords, tell tales, draft stripes, numbers, ties, bag, etc. Quantum had boat-show promo that was good for a discount, but it has since expired. A couple of the lofts lowered when I dug a bit deeper, but I didn't post any of the reduced pricing, as I suspect it's case-by-case.
EDIT: I also checked a local loft and FX Sails; both were less than anything listed above for crosscut dacron, but I don't have those quotes in front of me.
