I dont follow. Steel pins are great for making cases look like new (which can be argued is purely cosmetic), but how are they ever going to be cheaper? I could spend several lifetimes trying to use up enough walnut and cob media to make up the price difference. A few scraps of cut up used dryer sheet keeps my media clean for 10s of thousands of cases.
Are pins better? If for some reason you want the insides of your cases shiny, and if for some reason you decap before tumbling and want shiny primer pockets shiny, then yes. If you just want the part of the case that touches your chambers and dies to be clean, vibratory is just as good.
