Buying A 10" Mirror

I am about to embark on constructing my first telescope - a 10" f/6 Dob. I'll be buying the mirror, not making it, so I would like some advice on vendors. My search of the net shows University Optics and Discovery Telescopes offer these mirrors as a standard product. Anyone out there had recent experience getting mirrors from these vendors? Are there other mirror makers I should consider, maybe local ones? I'm in the Denver metro area.

Thanks,
Chris
