Question

I know there are stock charts and graphs for C# with Windows Forms. However I have been looking into Telerik and I really like their style, I just don’t want to spend $1000 for the software. Are there are any alternatives to Telerik that offer similar design types. I am just trying to avoid stock designs which are low quality.
