$3 needlenose from Job Lot. Had the set in my canal bag for over 3 years now (only reason I replaced my last pair was because I lost them). Zap some WD40 on them once a week and they open/close easily.

It is the single most important piece of equipment you carry when fishing! Just my .02 cents!
That puts me at about 87 years before the VS are worth it - and lose a $3 pair of pliers, go to the truck and grab another; lost the VS pliers, cry myself to sleep that night. Not to mention I keep a pair in my surf bag, the boat bag, canal bag, my truck and 2 pairs at home.

Way more things I need to spend money on than $250 pliers or a $250 Boga.
