Help with PS selection

I'm looking for a protein skimmer for my new (to me) 210 gallon tank. The skimmer will be going in a Trigger Sapphire CR44 Sump. I haven't found a decent used skimmer yet. I'm in no rush as I'm probably a month away from adding any livestock. Instead of used I've come across the a few new skimmers that look like good candidates.
Tank is planned as a moderately stocked sps dominant reef with a 3.5"-4" sand bed and lots of live rock.
Anyone have experience or insight they'd like to share about the following?

Simplicity 320DC ($330) rated for moderately stocked tank up to 240 gallons

Simplicity 540DC ($530) Protein Skimmer rated for moderately stocked tank up to 405 gallons

ESHOPPS PREMIER S-300 - discontinued ($450) rated at Heavy Bioload - 260 Gallons, Medium Bioload - 370 Gallons

ESHOPPS AXIUM X-220 - discontinued ($395) rated for Heavy Bioload - 200 Gallons, Medium Bioload - 270 Gallons

Have you considered a lifereef skimmer? They are very reliable and easy to use. They are also competitive price wise

Doesn't seem very competitively priced based on the web site?
What I'm seeing is ~$1,200

I'm getting the Simplicity 540DC from my lfs at black Friday pricing if 15% off.

I got a bunch of gear available including a Eshopps S-200 skimmer AND a whole Lifereef setup which includes a skimmer as well.

Thanks, but I got the Simplicity 540D from my lfs. It was 15% off but then they did a bf promo of 30% off.

Hows that Simplicity 540DC working out?

I love it. It's dialed in and producing a nice medium skimmate. I've had a couple of overflow issues, mainly from me adding something without shutting down the ps first.
The cup is easy to remove and clean too.
Hard to beat for the price (20% off black Friday sale).
