First, Changeling is selling his (I think brand new) PC in private sales forum for $115 plus shipping and that includes backing plate. Considering he hasn't sold it for a while that might be little bit negotiable.

Second, on my cars (your situation might be different and this is not general rule) 4" pads on PC are usually for spot repair. On my cars once spot is corrected I use "regular" sized pads for fine polishing. Therefore, I don't have use for 4" white pads on PC for now. So if you want to save some money and your car doesn't require it you might want to skip 4" white pads.

Third, I have 5.5" pads from AG. I like them but I got them at much lower price than that. At $7.50 for one I wouldn't get them, I would get 5.25" CCS ones from Danase. He has MYO 6-pack kit for $40 which, after Autopia discount, is $6 each.
