Just hope Seraphira doesnt make the same mistakes as all the other figure makers.

Posermatic, what mistakes do you think all the others have made?

I think DAZ would be hard to beat, even if your strategy was perfect. Most merchants work by themselves, part-time, maybe with a friend or two. DAZ has a whole paid staff to make stuff. So they can unveil their new figures with wardrobes of clothing, textures, morphs, hair, sets. While individual merchants have to make everything themselves. There's just no competition.

If someone did make a figure that caught on for some reason, DAZ could just bring out their own. Cheaper, if necessary. With more stuff, definitely. And people would gravitate toward the DAZ version, because of the support.
