Ya know, This thread had prety much died
and then some things were posted here that I thought I should say something about.
Actually for the suit, cost and the labor to put everything together I think the price is very fair. I even got some better deals on some of the parts and was able to lower the price recently.
Yes, most of the money I make on these suits is going to repair my ECTO but I did not raise the cost of the suits to cover the repairs the price is what it will be unless I find a better sourse for the parts I get to make them.
If you want to make your own suit, Go Ahead. I actually like to see people do their own stuff.
But if someone doesn't want to or I can offer a part that maybe they can't find anywhere else Or they just dont want or dont have the time to make a suit I see no problem offering to do so.
I make costumes for a living, to keep a roof over my daughters head and food in her mouth. I have to make sure that people know I am in business. If I dont work I dont have any way to pay my bills or get my car fixed. I dont get paid by anyone else I am 100% responsible for income.
There are enough new people coming in here all the time that mentioning something specific gets people to at least look at what someone has to offer, and each person can make their own choice as to weather or not they want to look.
and Actually Ectomman does pitch his site in every post, I dont have any problem with that. He has a GREAT site. I personally love it and it is the best site of its kind anywhere. I dont really see anything wrong with what I am doing
