If it were me, I'd check the Yardsale below first. Bogen is a good stand, but there are also good stands found on Ebay. (you are looking for a light stand, not a mic one, when you search)

B&H is a great site too.  Got all my Bogen/Manfrotto stand/clamp/articulating arms/etc from those guys.  You may be able to still get some cashback from Microsoft if you search on live.com (was up to 7% earlier).

I purchased one from Calumet and love it. Light, small and sturdy.
