If they're replacing your amp and cab they're not that expensive.

This ^

 

The key things to consider are this -

1. They offer hearing protection, enabling you to have monitoring at a safe level

2.They offer an enhanced clarity over traditional monitoring solutions, you only hear what you want to hear, with minimal influence from ambient sound

3. You can move around the stage without impacting what you hear

4. They are a lot easier to carry around than a pair or wedges or rig (see them as a replacement for your rig, or monitor wedges, or both - and then you'll see that comparatively, they are cheap... and your back will thank you for it)

5. They enable you to go ampless

6. They enable consistency across gigs

7. They look cool as fk and makes it look like you mean business

 

@Hammer_If you haven't already, check out the following thread - https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/389429-the-iem-bible-thread/ - all the advantages and tricks and tips are cleared off in there.

To be fair, it should perhaps be stated that an adequate PA is needed for these to do the job, most notably a monitor mixer with enough channels for all EIM uses to choose what they hear. That's not always in the budget of 'Dog'n'Duck' players. Not to say EIM is not a Good Idea, but it's not simply a matter of buying a set and selling one's rig. :|

Hence the link - I didn't want to regurgitate the whole lot... but yeah... this ^

 

If people aren't using PAs, maybe sacking of the rig and buying a couple of top end tops is the way to go. That way you can use a top as a traditional rig if you are playing with a band when you need to play without IEMs.
