Gareee, don't tell anyone, but I've just spent 149 euro's on a new RC Helicopter (the X-Ufo, very cool!!) and two of those mini rc-cars (to race against my son) a few weeks ago. Did I need it? No, but it's fun anyway. And it will not get me broke. Besides I've got the money, I don't spent it on overpriced poser content. Besides that to me the rc models are worth the money. They're tangible, as an rc-freak, I can see that they're worth the money. A lot of the poser content isn't worth the monay the ask for it at all. As a modeller I can see that a lot of the stuff being sold is overpriced. Oh yes, merchant will cry havoc, telling us how much time was spent modelling and so on. I used to do the same when I was still into professional game modeling. By the way, Poser isn't my hobby at all, I use it on a semi proffesional basis. If I was a hobbiest I wouldn't be able to justify buying half of the poser content I do own. If I would spent all the money I do spent on rc stuff on poser content instead, I wouldn't get far at all. I just don't see how some people can spent 100's of dollars each month on poser content, just because it's their hobby. On the other hand if people really spent that much money on poser content as merchants do claim, why am I not seeing a reflection of that in the poser galleries here and on various other sites? Most of the poser images seriously lack content.... I'm doubting that most merchants even make half of the sales they do claim. If they really sell what they claim they sell, the prices could be dropped without a problem at all. But, that's just my opinion.....
