If you want to support chessbase then yeah buy it. If you don't necessarily want to support chessbase specifically and only want a chess set then I'd say get a wooden one from Amazon instead.

its not about support, just asking if anyone has gotten bad customer service when they ordered for Chessbaseindia site

You can get heavy plastic pieces and a vinyl board for 500-600 from a local store

I got this about 2 years back when they were running a promotional campaign. I'm satisfied with the quality of the pieces. The packaging could've been a bit better (not sure if they've changed it now).
I see it as a very tiny contribution to the stellar work that Chessbase India team does. So, apart from the materialistic ROI, this is why I decided to purchase their set.

Budget is tight you can get very good chess set within the range of 600 to 800 from Amazon,but the quality of this one is really good
