Of course our income tax is higher than anywhere in the world so, you still need to work at least 2 jobs to support our government's nasty spending habit...Zabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07000817078818838705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101762574768178801.post-12198495396646751312013-10-29T23:44:09.056-04:002013-10-29T23:44:09.056-04:00Minimum wage is like $5.70?

The sheer volume of cool minis out there could drive you bankrupt, even though mini per mini they are less than GW.Zabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07000817078818838705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101762574768178801.post-64935314626644708722013-10-29T09:31:58.673-04:002013-10-29T09:31:58.673-04:00I go to Bartertown.

That way I can trade for my newest insanely planned out converted army using stuff I previously got for the insanely planned out converted army I never got to ;) <br /><br />Craigslist and trading with locals is also a great way to do things.Dezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05794856460752007480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101762574768178801.post-50600663786343320812013-10-29T08:39:50.697-04:002013-10-29T08:39:50.697-04:00I think part of the complaint, though, isn't j...I think part of the complaint, though, isn't just the cost itself, it's the way prices are continually rising for GW products, something that doesn't happen in other hobbies (or so it would seem). Take, for example, the video game industry: game prices hit a cap (typically $60 unless it's a special edition) and the consoles themselves get *cheaper* over time, at least until the latest & greatest new one gets released, but then the cycle repeats itself.<br /><br />GW is sliding out of metal and into plastic, which should mean that their production costs are getting cheaper, not more expensive, and their annual price hikes seem to indicate. Today a bare-bones SM Battle Company would cost you $772.50 (not including taxes & shipping if applicable); that same make-up (Commander, Command Squad, Razorback, 6 Tactical Squads, 2 Assault Squads, 2 Devastator Squads, 8 Rhinos) went for a "measly" $450 back in 2007 when Apocalypse first made an appearance...while not quite doubling in price, in the span of 6 years that same composition went up $322.50, and only the Tactical Squads are new sculpts...mafiacheesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13028877696626471355noreply@blogger.com
