The nice thing about PXG is they are great at customizing for almost no additional cost. When I did my fitting, they picked a Stealth+ and a shaft that was same cost as the driver which was insane. With the PXG driver, I got similar results for considerably less cost.
And I would add that the shaft matters alot more than the driver itself after my fitting.

Compare to other main stream drivers, which start at $600 with their crappy OEM shafts, this is an amazing price, regardless how one feels about PXG brand or their marketing. Unlike other major brands, PXG doesn't have the volume for shaft makers to mass produce "made for" version of the shafts so even PXG's no upcharge shafts are more real deal than what you would get with big brands.
I have been playing for 25 years and have never spend a lot of money on clubs. You think your ZX7 for 800 is a great deal? You could have had a full set of Gen 2 0311, or 0211's with your choices of shafts for ~$600.I believe their Gen 3 0311 is now around $800 for a full set. To give you a reference for my SD level, my previous set was a set of like new Z Forged 4-P with Tour Issue shafts for $400. LOL My previous driver was a M5 Tour 9* head which I paid $100 for, while selling a 10.5* head for $150, which was from a driver I bought a year earlier for $150.
Last year I pulled triggers getting a PXG Gen 4 driver & 3W, then a set of 0211ST irons, all together for ~$1200, all custom built to my spec with my shafts of choice. I even ordered one of the irons with softer and lighter graphite shaft while the rest are steel X flex. The prices are really laughable compare to what other name brands want these days, so it was a why not? I think I'd have to go back at least a decade for any new top tier driver to be sold at 299, and iron sets at 699.
I wouldn't touch their wedges at $350 a pop.. Even $150 each for the current rate is insane in my book.

Now whether that premium shaft makes a difference for you over a stock one is another question and therein lies the value of a good fitting. An expensive shaft could actually be worse for you than a cheap stock shaft if weight, flex, torque, etc. aren't right for your swing.

Personally I'm curious whether that Stealth shaft was fitted to his swing as well as the PXG one. Or if the PXG shaft would've yielded better results with the Stealth than the shaft that was on the Stealth. That would've been an actual like-for-like test.
edit: Also, free shipping sealed the deal.
