Are they really worth it? How come they are so cheap, is it because they suck???

Huh? Cheap? $120 for 3 filters and an adapter isn't cheap. I bought a new adapter for $50 and the 3 filters are worth about $25 at most. The auction makes you think you are getting the items in a different picture. (http://www.ibmega.com/ebay_panwebi/lens_images/p_42_2x_filter_case_tube.jpg)It is a total scam!
THIS AUCTION INCLUDES...
3 Piece Digital Optics Filter Kit
& Tube Adapter
This 3 Piece Filter Kit & Tube Adapter Retails for $59.99!
Please be very careful about some supposed deals on EBay. Read the entire ad including fine print very carefully and don't be seduced by pictures which may not accurately portray what you are buying!

I would avoid the acessories you get off ebay, I got suckered once - fortunatly for just £35 but what I got was cheap, poor quality junk.
Pop down to your photo store and see what you can buy the same kit for, I bet you'll be suprised :D

OK, just re-read the page and picked up the following:-
"This 3 Piece Filter Kit & Tube Adapter Retails for $59.99! "
But the starting bid is $109.99 and buy it now is $119.99 - says it all.
