Not having much money, I'd probably split that paint renewal shopping into two orders.

For testing the paints I'd probably buy some of their triad sets (most likely the Mid-Blue and the Yellow Triad, as that would mean I'd also have some green paint without having to buy some and the Dark Red Triad) plus probably 115 - Tanned Flesh + 214 - Suntanned Flesh as those look like they'd be good as base colour + highlight.
Triads:http://www.blackhat.co.uk/online_shop/index.php?cPath=21_168&osCsid=b05ff1605cf4565c9bd18cca1183962f

Not sure if that helps you, but that's what I'd do. That way you'd get quite a few paints to test, the investment is not that big all at once.

I forgot about the triad stuff, thanks for the reminder.
