For other boards without gold fingers where would you recommend and how
expensive for omnibus size boards?

fingers on the edge connectors?
Anything the size of an Omnibus board with gold fingers is *not* going
to be "reasonable" especially if you want "hard gold" (which IMHO is
the only way to go if you want reasonable life of the boards and
sockets).
I've used Advanced Circuits for all my boards that needed gold fingers
(they are *not* cheap...you've been warned).? When you submit your
Gerber files, you also specify if you have edge fingers and how you
want them plated.? I have been 100% satisfied with the boards that
I've received from them.
