    Diamond Drag Bits - Cost varies wildly 29$-180$

    Ok, looking to add a diamond drag bit to the arsenal for engraving, and looking at them and the prices are all over the place.
    I see on ebay Chinese for 29, and the american made start at 49 and go up to 180.
    Been around the block and realize you generally get what you pay for, but is it better to treat it like an end-mil, go cheap and chuck it for a new one.
    Any recommendations?
    Application is starting with acrylic signs, and glass etching.

    I purchased one that had replacements available for the diamond tip. They wear out.
