Hey
I know in the past 6 months alone, ive bought over 1000 US dollars in airbrush, conpressor, complete restock of paint from vallejo line (50+ bottles), windsor & newton series 7 brushes (like 6 of them), weathering pigments, sculpting supplies, and 3rd party washes and what not. This is in top of a 400 dollar forge world order and a brand new csm army.
Got a new job. Lots of disposable income, lol

Hmm spent roughly 300 Euros on the games workshop website since september last year when I started. Also have bought some stuff at a local store, plasticard, tools etc. Im guessing like 450 euros in 5 months so I guess around 1000 euros a year or so.
For me it's a small price to pay for the joy I get from painting and converting miniatures.

I don't know about long term stuff but my new years resolution was to.. well not to cut back but to at least keep track of my spending this year.
So far I am up to $333 :/

The problem with the 'vote with your dollar' response is that it doesn't take into account why we're not buying the product. I want to enjoy 40k enough to buy back in. It was my introduction to traditional games, and there was a time when I enjoyed it very much. I want to buy 40k, but Gamesworkshop is doing their very best to push me away, and simply not buying their product won't tell them that.
