Budget Phono Preamp?

At this point I'm considering either Creek OBH-8 or Gram Amp 2SE? Am I missing a good budget phono preamp? Price range: $150-300. Thanks.

Both have (had) $300 retail price but can be found new for $200 on Ebay. I know other very good phone stages in the price range (Clearaudio, Lehmann Black Cube), but they are made in Germany and probably not easily available in the US.
