extang solid fold cover for my 06 Crew 5.5' bed

I was at my local line-x dealer just asking some prices and they had an Extang solid fold cover for something like $739. I'm not sure if there are different models, but this one seemed to be made out of some hard plastic.

I really didn't want to spend that much for a securable, foldable, hardcover; but I don't know if I could get something comparable for cheaper online.

Also, I looked at other things that I"m looking to buy someday down the road there that seemed to be priced higher than i thought:

stainless steel bars (dont remember brand) for $380
bed extender for $280
line-x liner $430

I was just wondering if I could do better on any of these products from another local store (Cincinnati area). How much could I talk them down on any of these products?

I'm really just looking for the bed-cover right now since I have a trip coming up in about a week or so. WHat's the cheapest place to get a folding, securable, hard cover within a reasonable amount of time?

The Extang Solid Fold is made of powdercoated aluminum, not plastic.

really, the little model looked like plastic to me, unless i was looking at the wrong one.

regardless is there a place to get one cheaper within a week (don't really care whether it's aluminum or not, just as long as it's hard and securable

Folding & plastic = Bakflip.

Well, what's your budget? Maybe we can help you if we know how much your looking to spend.

Here's a Solid Fold.

Well, at a Ford dealership, I was asking about tonneaus and they said they had a folding one for $435 if I remember correctly. I don't know what brand but I think it was a metal frame with maybe vinyl or softer plastic, not really sure, but the price sounded good to me. This was before I knew anything about tonneus really, and was the first I had ever heard of folding ones.
