My first several I brought c-stand was on Amazon. I didn't know better when I brought them and I didn't have enough money to get the brand name c-stand. Great video, keep on making them.
Hold on. You said that all the sets you were on had chrome stands but if it's problem then you should black the stand out with tape or cloth? Therefore shouldn't people buy the black stands then?
If I want to mount a large softbox onto a c-stand,, can I put it right on the top mount of the stand (without using the grip head) or what would you recommend? I have an Avenger and don't want to mess it up.

If you have a c-stand that has hard to open legs, like the Neewer stands, open the legs first and put the base on the floor. then add the pole.
That only works on C+ stand.

Not black out the whole stand, just where it's reflecting. Also, chrome stands are cheaper.

That would work. Lots of sandbags.
Get a grip. sage advice.
