Yes there are nicer (and more expensive) sets of cups out there. But these get 5 stars for two
reasons:
1) They are a fine set for the price and a great start for anyone who wants to
learn the cups and balls (or who wants to graduate from the plastic beginner sets)
2) And
most importantly these cups work perfect for David Regal's "Cups and Balls and Cups and Balls
routine." These are actually the cups he uses for it himself so if you ever want to take on the
arts and crafts to make a set like David uses for his killer routine, this is the set for you!
