For me, it "seems" the iron is defiantly NOT a downgrade in value or performance. On a plus, its ~$1k cheaper...and on a retired Soldiers budget, that works!
 
I could put that money into some great heads, rollers, etc.... |  If I know/knew for sure that the BBM product was an excellent product being produced by excellent company, with excellent customer service, in the same vein as ERA or Kirkham are, then it's no brainer to me. If I had to make the decision today, then I'd probably choose the iron BBM product.
 
But then, I'm a lot thriftier now than I was before the 2007-2008 market crash.    
Unless a CSX owner must have a CSX block, for the dumb reason that a CSX replica needs a CSX block for some sort of "love connection" or synergy, then I don't think they'll be selling many more CSX blocks in the future.
