These sets have three big disadvantages: They don't suite everyones
needs in regards of selection of the parts, they are too expensive, and
they are only available online.

I bought only a few sets this year (even one with new bley in it,
because my wife wanted to have it - the set, not the bley), but I spent
quite a lot of money on several kilograms of grey bricks in PaBs. I
filled some "blue tubs" with e.g. 2x4 in grey and dark grey alone.

For someone with access to a PaB featuring the right bricks (even if
only a few times a year), the packaged sets at S@H are of no real concern.
