ER 32 collets for the 7x14

I have a ER 32 collet chuck for my 7x14. Question, for the precision
(or lack of) that this lathe can do, will it make any difference which
ER 32 collets I buy? I have found collets from approximately $5.00
each on Ebay to $15 to $20+ each mail order. I generally believe
that "you get what you pay for," but do I need to pay for something
that might be "overkill" for this machine on precision manufacturing?
(If that makes any sense)
Thanks,

I have the cheap er32 chuck and collet set. The few sizes I have used
are under .0005 run out. I think I paid about $50 (e-bay) for chuck
and eleven collets. It's not the machine or tooling that is lacking,
it's my talents.
