Digikey has the 18s in stock and ready to ship for 10.75, but I can't believe they are the cheapest. I'll be looking for about 25 of them if that makes a difference.
They're not solderless though and also require a holder.
The pico ezzmate thingie you can buy with the veros is quite convenient and you don't need a holder for them

I solder anyway with my veros as it save me whatever $7 bucks on the connectors and I'm good on soldering. I also do the thermal compound/tape method rather than drilling and tapping, so other than making the cobs take up more space than they have to, the holders are useless.
