Spring Options w/2.2 retainers

Was about to buy the Hughes 1110 springs to use with my set of 2.2 retainers but then i caught wind that there might be other options.

Heard these are the same as the #1110 springs.

Does anyone have any useful information on the subject? Thought $127 was a little steep for this type of valve spring.
