Wedges - new budget vs used premium

I had a similar situation when I started

Bought most things used, but bought a new putter and wedges. Although I added the wedges one at a time rather than buying a set.

I've had a Benross Tribe MDR 52, a Wilson Deep Red Maxx 56, and a Benross Rev 60.

The Benross were both great for what I wanted at the time and are still in the bag. They felt decent, without the price tag (Benross don't pay pros to use their gear so are usually cheaper). The Wilson did the job as a sand wedge, but I'll want to replace that now, whereas I'm still happy with the Benross wedges and don't feel the need to upgrade.

So basically what I'm getting at is in my experience, I found quite a bit of difference between similarly priced lower cost options. So probably best to go and look in person before buying in my opinion
