Based on the ones I"ve built, $40 is cheap for all of the seals, be it as a set or in individual parts. In fact the last set I bought was for the tilt cylinders on a Case loader and they ran nearly $100 per kit.
As far as ordering a kit, I usually just get mine from the dealer, unless it"s something odd, or there happens to be an aftermarket source. As a "middle man" I still don"t mark up parts simply because I"m not in the resale business. Still I have to charge for my time finding and picking them up, so even if the mfg is $20 or so more than aftermarket, etc, it"s still usually cheaper on the customer for me to get the OEM parts and not have to spend extra time hunting for what I need.
As far as aftermarket, one good source is Bulldog hydraulics. Click on the link below and then on their hydraulic catalog for a 700 plus pages of seal kits for different models and brands of mahcines. Depending on what you have as to whether they would have a kit or not. If not then your pretty much stuck either going back to the mfg, or getting all the parts individually. In that case your best bet would be Hercules hydraulics. I believe, from what I"ve seen, that Bulldog is a division of Hercules that sells just the kits, but I know the individual parts are available from Hercules.
If you get the parts individually, you need to figure out the ID, OD, thickness, and design of each seal. Like I said in the first post, there can be multiple sizes of each design when it comes to thickness, etc, so it"s vital that you know exactly what you"ve got before placing an order.
If you run into any problems post back and I"ll be glad to help out any way I can.

In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together.
