Each guy has to draw the line somewhere. If a plug is so expensive you are afraid to lose it , you probably shouldn't get it.

What surprises me is that the price of plugs hasn't dropped with all the publicity sluggos and storm wildeyes and other rubber have gotten.

I still have lots of Gibbs plugs (needles , poppers , danny's darters) that i paid an average of $7.50 for ten years ago. I doubt I will ever spend over $20 on a plug. At some point its smarter to use something else or start making some yourself.

Oh , BTW , this is not a comment on whether or not the plug builders efforts are worth the money. Its simply my opinion as to what price level would drive me to a different startegy like rubber or rigged eels , etc.
