It's up and down, but at the moment, down to $64 on amazon[amazon.com]
I use the 120xp version of these everyday as a mechanic and absolutely abuse them (hammering on them and using pipes as cheater bars) and have failed to break a single one yet after years of use.

did some research on the warranty and it seems many people are not happy with the RMA process (requires mail-in, takes up to 3-4 months, according to some reports).
obviously YMMV with warranty, but this is a a dealbreaker for me, personally
I have a standard 3/8" Craftsman ratchet that is my only ratchet. I'd like a set with multiple lengths, flex heads and ones with finer teeth for tight spaces instead of standard ratcheting. Would this be for me?

As an FYI, I discovered there are sockets with external hex that can be used (E.g.) a flex head ratcheting wrench on (eg, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01JBK1FHG/)

If it'll be your primary set, I'd say it's a 50/50.
These flex heads don't lock, so if your'e okay daily driving a ratchet of that type then sure.
Good deal. I have the 120xp flex version of this set and the 84 tooth non flex 3 piece (no stubby). The 120xp are my favorite ratchets by far, but if you're on a budget, this set would be a nice compromise between function and price.
I haven't had a bad gearwrench experience yet, but also have never had to try and submit a warranty claim either.
