I'm in agreement with these guys. This set is the only new set that I looked
at thought, "Yeah, that looks worth what they are asking."
Also after doing an inventory of the parts, (1) I mentioned to my fiancee, that
in a year or so, if these make it to clearence, they will be fantastic for
clearancing out. Heck, I think as soon as I can get these on sale, I buying
some more.
