There are challenges there though. First is actually getting them if you don't live in the USA, since the website offers no clues on international shipping (and the OP's forum name suggests he is in Australia).

Second, they are listed at $225 for a set, but I can easily find K&K pickups at $110 online.

If I was buying a pickup the K&K is a no-brainer, because I know that I can actually buy them. And I've never had to do a lot of knob twiddling - a little mid-range cut does the job fine (and that's on a rosewood + cedar jumbo, that is heavy on the mid-range).
