Has anyone tried these RealTriggers?

Amazon reviews seem mostly positive, but I tend to trust CAG reviews more. They look kind of silly and are a little pricey (for two pieces of molded plastic), but I can definitely see how they'd be practical for shooters/racers. Any thoughts?

Here (http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=172791) is a previous thread about them. There are some opinions in it.
Good to see they started selling them alone though.

Oh nice. Thanks. I did a search for RealTrigger and it didn't yield anything.

I picked these up about a month ago from Amazon, actually three sets (one set for each of my DS3's and a set for my SixAxis). I absolutely love them. I no longer feel like my fingers are slipping off L2/R2. They easily snap on and off, and stay firmly in place when snapped on. I only don't like them for High Velocity Bowling, as they feel a bit strange because of the way you need to hold the controller for that game, but again, they snap off just as easily as they snap on, so it's very easy to remove them for an HVB session, then snap them back on for my next Fallout session. :)

I bought them from GameCrazy for $4.99 , in case there is anyone who wants to physically check them out before they buy them .

Yeah GC is the only B&M location to sell them. That's where I got both of mine. Glad to know they're on Amazon as well.
I have them I think that it's the way sony should have done the triggers on the controller in the first place.

Sadly, Sony is very backwards about other hardware aspects, despite being forwards about others.

I knew there was something I meant to add to my last Amazon order. #-o

I have sold a lot of these to my Canadian customers and they LOVE them. Nothing but the highest regards to this product. For $5 you can't go wrong :)

I got these awhile ago and maybe I should get a second pair to replace the current ones... I keep dropping my controller.
