[QUOTE="Neo, post: 1470489, member: 4139"] For myself I would say that although the amount of purchases I make hasn't reduced. I have however become more selective in what I buy. Originally I would but any book that sounded interesting regardless of whether it would see play or not.. now however I tend to buy only what I know will be used, with the very rare foray into "Impulse Buy" territory. Miniature wise, I haven't bought any for years though I have a failry extensive collection anyway. Mostly I havent bought any because they're not easy to get hold of particularly or because they're not ideal or specific enough for what I want anymore. Some things I dont buy are the likes of Dice, Adventure modules etc.. and that is largely because I have more dice than I ever use already and we dont play published modules. (except as part of a playtest). But there are things I always buy.. Anything with Forgotten Realms on it, my relationship with that campaign setting goes back to its first release and my group and I are so familiar with it after playing in it for many years that its more like an old friend :) though its true I buy most books from Wizards when able for D&D, Star Wars and Modern.. I also tend to buy a lot of material from Green Ronin as they continually produce books not only of good quality but of interest. Likewise I tend to buy quite a bit from Mongoose Publishing, Bastion Press and Fantasy Flight Games.. this is not to say I exclude from other publishers, merely that I find myself buying more books from the above companies on a reguar basis as they tend to provide source of the sort I'm looking for. So not less for sure, but certainly more selective :) [/QUOTE]
