I was wondering if behringer effects are or . they are reasonably priced and look like they would be reliable. opinions please.

They're not bad for the money, we sell them at work.
Some are better than others, but they're mostly ok.
Obviously you can't expect amazing things for the money, but the tones can be pretty good.
Best advice I can give is, try before you buy

Yeah I already ordered the Acoustic Simulator so ill let u know how i like em when it gets here.

Guitar and Bass magazine gave a fairly good review of the acoustic simulator

Yeah I have a Feeling Im not going to be disappointed.
