St. John's Wort brands that actually contain St. John's wort?

There was an investigation done by the New York State attorney general that found a bunch of store brands of St. John's wort contain 0 actual St. John's wort.
Is there a brand that reliably contains the actual thing and, preferably, still competes on price with the fake ones? I don't think you should have to pay $30 for a few grams of plant matter.

What's your take on St. John's wort? Do you find it useful for anything in particular? Any application? I'm considering a purchase, out of sheer curiosity.

When used regularly for a few weeks, it acts as a nice mood regulator. It up-regulates serotonin receptors, so it's useful if you have some down-regulation from other things. Combining it with Bacopa gives me a nice synergy. Both are subtle, though, and take time to reach full effects.
