I wondered if it was just me thinking that a lot of stuff has come out that is just not that good. If you bake a cookie and you sell it, you have to bake another cookie. If you make a texture you don't have to make it again, and you can keep selling it to whoever walks in. I don't buy this idea that it takes a lot of work so you have to charge more. There are lots of great textures that aren't expensive and you will typically see more reviews on those than on the higher priced items, I'm thinking because more folks can afford them and are buying. I won't buy anything from anyone just because it's new. I'm seeing a lot of items lately that are just not that good and wondering how many sales they are actually getting. I think it's bad to show pics of what a texture can be if you buy all the addons, kind of bait and switch if you ask me. I also think the market is saturated with textures, I'm seeing stuff that I can do myself, and I'm no texture artist. Basically if you charge too much, you will not sell that many, and if the items are poor quality you won't sell any at all. Marque
