I'm considering buying a trio but still not sure on their temperment.

My take on their temperment is that as a group, they are not for the inexperienced. Some of them are very tame and predictable. Others...not so much.
Predictable is a loaded word. In truth, I find them very predictable. Some of them just happen to be predictably "bitey".
Most of the Scrubs in my experience tend to be a little to alot nervous when first taking them out of their enclosure, then they are fine. I also have found in the captive born animals that over time and regular handling, most all of them become very handleable.
Good luck, start young and captive born!
