Sorry, I meant they were more for my beer kits, which I believe are a slightly higher quality that say the Muntons or Brewer's Best kits (which really are not "bad"). We actually have a LHBS here which is obnoxiously priced over catalogs and internet sites even with shipping, but I think it is because he has way more overhead than he needs, and seems to try to only focus on his all-grain crowd. I'm intrigued now, perhaps I'll give a wine kit a shot, I'm sure it won't goto waste either way.
