Default RE: .005 straightness good enough???

The debate whether .005 straightness is good enough is a moot point now.Friday i went to pick up my bow and wasgiven a lesson as to why you get what you pay for.Len was paper tuning my bow at different distances and these supposedly "good enough" arrows were all over the place.Tail left,tail right,tail down,you name it they did it.Everything but bullet holes[:'(]We decided that i should go home get a few more of "those" arrows and a few of my old Whitetail XP's.Now Len proceeded to shoot the other arrows with the same results,complete crap.Then he nocked just 1 of the Whitetail XP's and BLAMO!!!!!!! ,Perfect bullet hole...Apparently these arrows were 4 years old and were "dumped" at Bass Pro to get rid of them.The spine on these arrows were horrible.The moral of this story is just because you you think your getting a deal money wise,think twice about it before buying.I knew better than to think i could get $140.00 arrows for $60.00,i just hoped they were mistakenly mispriced by them.
