Thanks for your help.
What's about the quality of the Landmark aluminium and cordura tubes?

Look and perform about the same as everyone else's equipment. Some of the fancier tubes like the REC tubes give you a little more selections on colors and trim of the aluminum tube. I think the Clear Creek and Landmark cordura tubes are very similar. The Landmarks black and the Clear Creeks garnet. I think Dan Craft may carry the Clear Creek tubes. They have nice tabs inside to select each section so it's easy to get your rod out, put together and on the water.

Ron at Landmark has been great in my fairly limited (so far!) dealings, and the tubes are top-notch quality.

Just ordered a couple cases from this site. Haven't arrived yet so I can't speak for quality but the prices were pretty good.
