where might one get a good neck reamer from for a good price ?
Pretty much any good reloading supplier will have reamers at a reasonable price.

Neck reamers are sold for most case trimmers on the market. In some brands (such as RCBS), they're sold as pilot reamers, to be used in conjunction with case trimming. For some other brands, they're meant to be used in their own step.

Reamers for case trimmers are generally about $7-20. It's pretty cheap, if you already have a trimmer (other than the Lee Zip-Trim, or Hornady Lock-N-Load).

I prefer to outside turn the necks, but that requires a larger monetary investment. Forster and Hornady hand-held neck turners get good reviews. Lyman and RCBS have kits for use with their case trimmers.
Overall, outside turning requires an investment of $50-90, just to get started (you may still need a pilot/mandrel for certain calibers).

And, the "best" method is a debatable subject. Everyone has their own opinion on the matter...
