I've actually heard of Founders Club. I bought a hybrid at Golf Glalxy a few yrs ago, before I knew more about what I was doing. :)
For a starter set, I think it depends how serious you are and how much you want to spend.
I think Ebay is a craps shoot, and probably not a good idea if you are just starting out.
If you are in Canada, I'm not sure what retailers are available. I would think you could get a complete Wilson set on the lower end, new. Or if you are thinking used, perhaps Callaway preowned.com may be a way to go.
Even their average rated equipment looks good to me. They also sell on ebay, but I think it's cheaper to go to their site.
