Anyone ever bought the flies from this website? The pics look good, but are they actually any good because they're a touch on the pricey side!

No. Oliver Edwards owns (or licenses his name to) the Essential-Skill.tv web site. His video are the best I have seen on fly fishing and a joy to watch. Not sure where or who makes his flies.
The essential fly is a fly & materials retailer, and are good to deal with (all mail order for me). Their flies are produced in Africa and are OK for the price.
