Best deals of out of grey market China sites:

Fluke cut China a deal. 17B+ is over $300 in US. But China will sell
you one of their discounts- same meter- for $130.
It IS a genuine Fluke. Same product. Only confusion is, on eBay,
they're selling cheap VC97 meters spamming the keyword "fluke" in the
title. But it obviously isn't a Fluke.

I agree about Fluke build quality. I have a couple older Fluke portable
DMMs. They drift out of Cailbration and typically you need to adjust
serval pots with a mini-screwdriver. My HP calibrates with push buttons
and no disassembly is required.
Here is an example, this meter is really common and there are always a few
on eBay every day

What is also great about Fluke products is that you can get just about
every spare part you could want and can actually get them calibrated if
need be. I have a really nice Fluke 87 that I bought used. It was pretty
beat up when I got it, but I was able to purchase all the parts I needed to
get it working / looking just about new.

I think the best value in a quality DMM is a Chinese Fluke.
I am happy with mine (12E+) bought soon after seeing that AvE video.
I have also had good service from a Uni-T
http://www.uni-trend.com/Productslist_1106_1106_1106_1106.html
But that has become a little floppy in the lead-sockets, and also has
the weird feature of over-estimating voltages if the internal battery
is low (so, if it is showing a low battery warning, you can't trust
the voltages. They end up doubled, just before it dies). Swapping the
battery is awkward too, you need to dismantle the meter, there isn't a
battery compartment as such.
However, it does have some measurments (capacitance, inductance,
frequency) missing from the Fluke.
