Solar BLVD kits
With these kits you're basically buying only panels. For roof install you still need a cable (included cable is either too short, or too thin, or both). And different brackets, stainless hardware, fuses/breakers. Controller is an Ebay junk, should better be replaced.
So you're paying $644 for 280W of panels plus Y-splitters. Sunelec (link by Fred) for $300 will sell you 3*100W. Add $100 for Ecoworthy, another $150 for MC4 wire, Y-connectors, couple of breakers, and you have 300W system for $550 with better controller. Shipping costs should be considered though. Also, cheap panels Sunelec usually sells wholesale, ex. 4 panels minimum.
So, in the end, it's probably a wash between 280W kit from Solar Blvd and separate 3*100 panels plus Ecoworthy and cables/fuses. As long as the OP don't pay $900 for 300W solar and couple of breakers :)
