Default Shrink Fletch System Any Good???

Has anyone used or had any experience with this fletching if you have how well do they work and are they worth buying? Apparently the fletchings are attached to a sleeve that you put over the shaft and heat in hot water and in bonds to the arrow it seems like a very simple way to fletch a arrow but the question is will they work can the sleeve come back off or will it damage your arrow. Im thinking about buying some but i would like first to see if any one here has had any success with them. Here is the link to them at Cabelas http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/pod/standard-pod.jsp?_DARGS=/cabelas/en/common/catolog/pod-link.jsp_A&_DAV=MainCatcat21424&rid=%index Id=cat20063&navAction=push&navCount=1& parentType+index&parentId=cat20063&id=0032 997

ive used them before but they are really not worth the money except for when you need quick field repairs it might come ok if you have access to very warm water.

Pretty nifty idea, but it's really gonna suck when you have to replace just one vane. That's an expensive vane. They are also quite heavy. I've not used them, nor will I. Not very practical, IMO.

I have seen them but I am going to stick to my blazers that are applied directly to the shaft.
