Thats a nice deal Mike!
I've once tested the aaxplosion series (the drum-set player of one of my former bands used them) and they are really nice!
I don't like to advertise chinese labour camp products (actually I don't really know exactly..but the price tells its story..), but I use a 10" stagg vintage bronze splash for 25€. It has a really interesting sound, could be compared with a china, but more explosive and with a short sustain, great for accents (I'm looking for unconventional sounds, as I mostly play beside drum-set players).
Thats my only "hand-cymbal" (although its not labelled as one).
Have you ever tried ufip cymbals, they have some really interesting cymbals as well, but unfortunately very expensive!
All the best, Tom!
