I'm thinking about trying the NAP QuickSpin vanes. I've always preferred the weather-proofness of vanes over feathers, but the common thought has been that vanes are not as effective as feathers. Supposedly the QuickSpins are superior to conventional vanes. The only problem for me is that they are so stinking expensive. Cabelas has them for $20 for a 12 arrow's worth. That's expensive to begin with, let alone expensive to maintain. Has anyone found them cheaper than $20 per set, and will a right-helical Arizona fletcher with standard Fletchtite be sufficient for assembly?
Any other QuickSpin advice or testimonials are welcomed. Muchos thank yous.
Edit: I just found this write-up:

Boy, those things are heavy! How much will 30+ grains slow my arrow speed down?
