CentOS == RedHat.
CentOS has every bug that RedHat has.
CentOS has every bug fix that RedHat has. 
When RedHat rolls out a new version (e.g. RHEL6.0) there is a lag of a few months rolling out the CentOS release of the same version; for bug fixes the lag is a few days.
 
So, the price of RedHat is money, the price for CentOS is patience.
The product sold by RedHat is support, the product 'sold by' CentOS is self-support.
The relative value of the two arises from your ability to support your systems.
