Can anyone recommend me a good brand for a/c condenser?

I need to replace it because it has a leak. I tried to find the info about the brand but it has only a few without any review. I'm looking for either any made except chinese with the price that is cheaper than OEM b/c i'm running low on budget. Every comment is appreciated.

what were you quoted for OEM?

There are plenty of ways to buy a Mazda ac condenser without paying retail so if you asked a local dealership, that was mistake #1.

I would either buy a new one from www.onlinemazdaparts.com - $307
OR
I would contact our forum vendor Mazmart (you can find their subforum near the top of the home page) and see if he has one lying around.

Thanks for the fast reply
$300 is too expensive for me
I'm looking for something around $120-$180

Any suggestion?

Or you can disconnect the hose from the fire wall and put in a connector.
