My tripod has disappeared. I've searched the house and cars several times and

neglected to pick it up when the wave at Perpetua kicked my ass around the block.
It was a Manfrotto carbon fiber base with and Induro BH3 ballhead.
It was at the low end of the performance I need for my astro landscapes, and
replacement cost is quite a bit more than I can pretend to afford. Are there any
amazing deals on tripod bases or arca-swiss heads?
Any decent comparison charts between different brands and models?
If the location is a state park or a national park or ..., it might be worth
looking it up on-line to find a contact number and giving them a call to see if
they have a lost & found. If it didn't get washed out to sea, it might have been
found and turned in.
I lost a tripod once at a state park & some kind soul turned it in, so I was
able to go back and get it on my next trip.
Also, it's a good idea to have a tag of some sort with contact information on
your gear. If I found a tripod tagged with a name & phone number, I'd give 'em a
call to see about getting it back to them.
