You can get a Brink's shrouded at Wal-Mart for $14.93 US.

A lot of those large knock off padlocks out there can be pretty challanging sometimes. Might be easier then a 930 but some are way harder then a regualr master padlock, takes you a lil while to get used to them.
If a lock is a puzzle, then its key is the complete picture

The hardest locks can be those cheap $1 locks with a narrow keyway, etc... :(
