They are worth it, but don't go all out at once. One at time, trying it out thoroughly before filling in another gap in your collection is a good way to go.

Eyepieces are quite individual choices - what one person like the next may hate, or one might work better in one scope than another type of scope - so there is no definitive brand or model to recommend. Ideally borrowing and testing in your own scope is a good way to go, or join in an observing group and seeing how their eps perform in their own scope is a good way to go before purchasing, but it isn't always possible. I think any of us who have been observing for some time have some old eps tucked away that are considered 'no good' anymore.
