IMHO, of the com-bloc makers, EG and Hungarian, and Russian mags are the highest quality. I've owned Chinese, Bulgarian, Romanian, in addition to the above three makes. In all honesty though, they all work the same and are equally durable.
Significant difference in value? Not really. I think EG mags have generally commanded a higher price just because they are the nicest looking and "German quality".
Russian mag prices are based on their rarity compared to the other makes that were imported in greater numbers.
Romanian mags tend to be the roughest looking,
have the lowest quality stamping and sloppiest spot welds, but they still work. I'd pay more for a Hungarian or EG mag than a Romy, but if all I had to use were Romanian AK mags I wouldn't lose any sleep over it.
