Re: Price increases: keep buying or will you stop?
For myself, I've been collecting for quite a few years now and a lot of what's coming out now really doesn't interest me. This mostly applies to Marvel Legends collecting, as I've already got what I consider "definitive" versions of the figures I want, such as the 90's X-Men. So I don't really need to collect the AoA waves.
The increase in price is another factor for sure, but since I try and get most of my figures through EB Games, with their platinum discount, that mitigates some of the price increase.
Certain toy lines are definitely making it easy for me not to spend money on them. Case in point: Star Wars Black Series. So many re-issues and re-paints, coupled with the increased price, mean I'm spending a lot less on that line than I used to.
