At this price they seem like a good deal. What are the disadvantages of these compared to those SLCD's that cost three times as much?

The answer is the rigid stem of these cams that makes the difference. A rigid stem can be more challenging to place, as you have to protect the stem from breaking or shearing in horizontal placements. The flexible heads of most cams on the market alleviate that problem.
