Subject: Black Undercoat question: Which brands?

Are there any major differences between brands of black undercoat? I'm trying to avoid spending $15 for a can of spray paint, but I don't want my paint to end up flaking off or anything...
Has anyone tried "Armory" brand primer. It's only $6 at my FLGS, so I'm interested in seeing if anyone has used it.

I personally use "Board to Pieces" primer. I used to use Citadel but I got tired of paying so much for it and the shop where I buy all my gaming stuff at a lesser price stopped using citadel primer as well. The guys there use what I do, I can't see a difference at all, and you get more paint for less money.

If you can find Duplicolor sandable black primer( from auto parts stores) It's the best stuff I have ever used. Only about 3-4 bucks to boot.
It leaves an amazing amount of detail, and I've never had it fuzz in over 3 years now.
