are polished picks worth the money?

[pillar]

Hi.

Some shops are offering polishing of picks.
Does this enhance picking or just wasted moneys?

the theory is a polished pick will move smother in a cylinder,
you can polish picks that you already have. there are thread's on how to do it if you don't know how.

There are 207 matches that come up with a search, so it's been covered before. Yes, IMO it's worth it to have them polished, but for me it's a waste of money because I can do it myself.
