Buy the bits you need. Router bit sets are mostly just waste IMHO.
banggood is pretty good at delivering items, and refunding if they don't make it.
If the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.

I agree, except when they aren't.

Have had a few items go missing with BG, getting a refund for one was easy, the other required pulling alot of teeth. Not fun.

Just go to princess auto if you want cheap quality router bits.

Again, you don't NEED all those bits! At least with the Princess Auto kit, if you HAVE to get a kit (which I don't recommend) you can return the bits if they suck.

I got a similar kit from Amazon years ago. While I agree they aren't great quality, it does give you the opportunity to test out different bits and see which ones would be useful for the stuff you make. Then you can spend money on better quality bits that you'd actually use.

Wear a full face shield while using, that way when these chinesium bits explode, you get to keep your eyes and teeth!

Freud is good value for a decent quality bit and Whiteside is another (harder to find) brand that makes pricier but better bits. Still good value though. Anything Lee Valley makes is great too but expect to pay top dollar for it.
That's what I do with most of my tools. Ironically, so far the only one I had to replace was a Channellock...

You don't NEED all the bits until you actually NEEDED that missing bit :D.

These are probably geared towards casual DIYers who do very little projects. They don't want to research on the available patterns/sizes, they just want something close enough to what they have. So when the time comes, they open the box and just pick one out of whim.

I guess I'm just talking about myself and I have a cheap set from Canadian Tire for that purpose.
