I guess that I should have prefaced it just a little more.  I'm
familiar with all the GP's out there and first I don't ebay, nothing
against ebay, I just don't.  I don't particularly care for the Diamond
V2000A, Comet GP-15 & the MFJ 1538 even though I have one of those.

Also, I'm looking for something with a little more HP in the gain
department than a GP. I've considered building my own coaxial, aka
"Big-Stick" and had found this
http://anttron.tripod.com/6_meter_fiberglass_base_antenna.htm but I'm
not giving them $100 for something I can build myself.

I'm seriously thinking of going the DB 212 route
http://www.andrew.com/products/antennas/bsa/DB212-C.aspx just because
it's a hard proven line.  I'm moving out of the city later this year
so I can put up a tower of significance and four of those on the sides
would be nice.
