Strobist newbie

My home flash studio is on it's way. I already have the light stands from Amazon ($30 x 2). The reflector/pass-through umbrellas should be coming in this week too.
Adorama 40" White Interior Umbrella with Removeable Black Cover ($15 x 2).


The rest from B&H.

Impact SHOE MOUNT BRACKET f/UMBRELLA/LIGHT - IMBSM	2	$13.95
SBM #0104 SUPREME LIGHT DIFF f/CAN 580EX/2 - SB0104	2	$14.95
Vivitar 285HV FLASH - VI285HV	2	$89.95
Vivitar SB-4 ADAPTER - VISB4 (AC)	2	$34.95

The AC adapter is to save batteries and I got the diffusor for stand-alone operation and for possible studio work to see how they work. For on camera work I only needed one but in case they work out on stands too, then I have two.

Grand total of $477 with shipping and tax for a complete home studio. Quasi-wireless as I'm using the peanuts to trigger via flash. I'll end up getting some long PC cords and maybe a PocketWizard down the line as the need arises but I'll learn to use what I have and wait till I really need a different triggering method before spending more money. The cheapest would be long PC1 cords.
