I did just now and almost had a heart attack...lol $6,998.33 since 5/12/2000 Hope my husband doesn't find out until I get life insurance on him...heh Marque

Gawd you're brave...I would never have the nerve to add it all up! I don't want to know!

Just checked last night as a matter of fact....I'm rounding: Here = 6550.00 Daz=4500.00 Total spent on ALL puter stuffs that includes upgrades, software etc since 01/01/2002 = 19921.00

Oh I haven't even added Daz or RuntimeDNA up yet...lol I've been buying from Daz since they were Zygote. Marque

And we won't even talk about computers...that's a sore subject in this house, heh Just picked up a new notebook for our trip to add to the collection. Have 3 in my den alone and I just upgraded my main system. We just had a talk about that one...lol Marque

LOL Marque....I think RuntimeDNA is at about 1000.00....If I were to pull it out spearatly.

I just add up stuff for taxes .. Think they have run about 5 grand for the last couple of years total between the stores .. That is per year.

LALALALALALaLALA, I can't hear you I can't hear you and you can't make me!! :) I don't dare, if hubby ever found out how much of my money goes to this littel "hobby" no where neer what I make in the occasional graphics job I do.

My lovely wife says that, off the top of her head, we've spent around $325 at DAZ, $15.00 here for copies of Renderosity magazine through Pay Pal that I never recieved (pay pal says they sent the money to 'rosity, 'rosity says they never got paid, upshot is that I got screwed out of $15 and/or a magazine) and around $225 for Poser 4 AND Poser 5 because I bought them through the campus bookstore. Total: $565. We use the free stuff because we don't have a solid income base to purchase goodies from. But...if we did....hehehehehehe.....

No way! No! I will NOT add it up! Uh-uh, no. :] Fish

I guess I'm lucky in a way...hubby spends as well on puter music software, & equipment. But NO WHERE NEAR what I've spent. All he says is get busy & PLEASE try & make some money off this LOL......

Not even gonna look! ;O)

My husband has his music stuff too but it's all counted as nonprofit. We do share the Harley Davidson addiction though, so we never know who spent the money at the Harley store...lol Marque

Marque...has your hubby discovered Soundclick.com???? A music haven.

wellll........... lets put it this way, credit cards, 8,500, check card???? who knows! lol And I am about to spend more!

I won't add it up, don't need a heart attack. That's why I've been working on my modeling skills, to stop spending as much.

Here? Less than eighty dollars. Mostly on wishlist gifts for others. I've spent even less at RunTime DNA and 3D Commune. There are plenty of products which hold my interest, I just haven't gotten around to buying them yet.

DAZ, on the other hand ... I'm not going to try to add those up. I really don't want to know.

Now, if you want to compare DVD purchases ....

You know....if we all disclose how much we spent here just in 2003 we'd have a very rough idea of the minimum amount of money taken in here annually. ;) I spent $58 here in 2003. Vali's textures are exclusive here and up until I discovered them I had no need to participate in any marketplaces. Now I'm just out of control, I won't discuss how much I've spent at all the marketplaces in 2004. =oP

Definatley do not want to know, really to afraid to know how little control I have. Yikes....Sharen

Because of the way the marketplace went, and specifically a few of the vendors, I quit buying here. I just checked and I have not bought anything here since 8/19/2001. I did not realize that it had been that long. Before that I bought plenty. When I quit buying here I cut way back at the other sites. After seeing some of the totals spent above, I am glad that I got a handle on my spending. I am starting to believe that virtual items should only be purchased with virtual money. I have wanted many things, but have learned to ask myself if I really NEED them. The answer is almost always no. Most of the time I can create an image that I have in mind with something I already have, or something that I can find for free. Of course I only do this as a hobby and do not make any income with Poser.

I know only, too much. ~8O

Funny you should say that. I only started buying here after I started EARNING some money here. And that is partially due to the fact that to me, it is not "real" money G
First of all it's in a foreign curency where everything seems so cheap (since one US$ is approx. 6.20 DKK) And since I use them as in store credits - or PayPal they're never REALLY "real" to me. I haven't tallied what I've spent here, but I know what my earnings are here and since all that money are used on Poser stuff (here and elsewhere) it is quite shocking.
My Daz spendings on the other hand shivers and closes eyes... Funny btw how many of us have hubbies who would get a stroke if only they knew... I am SO GLAD there are also male shopaholics here GG

sorry, just had to do it..;)

NO WAY!! will I add up money spent at this site or any other. Don't think I could bear the guilt & shame of it. Yes I'm a Poserholic :-( Is there a Hell for Poserholics who spend to much?

I reached the same conclusion as rwilliams... It happened when I was sorting through my runtime to get rid of unused stuff, and realized that most of the "Huh? What in the hell is that thing?" items were bought, while most of the "Use everyday" items were homemade.

I haven't actually spent nearly as much as some of the posts here - can't afford to...but sometimes there are things I think I just HAVE to have - then I make one render, get bored with the item and move onto something else. I think I must be the only 'waster' here. LOL [I feel pretty guilty spending the cash for just one render] Also , I have made a few purchase 'blunders', so I'm much more choosy about what I buy now. Lessons learned I guess! Best Regards...

I think I spent about fourteen bucks here a month ago ;) That's been it.

Hah Webmaster421. You're by far the only waster here. I've bought lots of stuff here (and at Daz) that I haven't even USED for one single render. I just bought it because of the "WOW" factor. Of c ourse I PLAN to use them all some day... but... er..G

I am in serious denial. How much? Too bloody much!
