i want an umbrella setup. right now i have ebay triggers and using the tripod to hold my 430EXII with no umbrella.

was looking into ebay on getting a stand and umbrella but getting confused. i remember some posting that the ebay triggers stand too high. but i found a set where the receivers have an umbrella mount on the side of them and are about as low profile as the receivers.. now has anyone tried those before? any thoughts?
