I think BrianG touched on a HUGE factor to consider with the lower priced packs - CONSISTENCY. I don't doubt that some folks have gotten Turnigy/Zippy packs that perform great, but others have issues. The Hyperion G3, conversely, are consistently great performers. BrianG has the knowledge and ability(and willingness) to test his batteries and determine their worthiness - most users don't share these qualities. The low end packs require the user to assume more risk, as there is a greater chance of lower quality. Not all brand x packs are bad, but without the equipment, knowledge and ability to test the individual packs, the chances of getting a problem pack is significantly higher with the "low-end" packs.
