There doesn't seem to be much (if any) correlation between price and creakiness. The relatively inexpensive Suntour Durolux and DVO Diamond are not known for creaking, while the top-money fox forks are notorious. Then again, the expensive Öhlins forks also have a good rep for no creaks.
TBH, i don't see much point in buying aftermarket Fox stuff unless it comes at a huge discount. The MSRP seems unreasonable considering the same stuff as part of a complete bike isn't much more expensive than the competition.
