Ok, there is another thread going that people talk about how much they would spend to buy a kit. It has gone on for a while and we have a very wide range of answers from free to hundreds, even thousands of dollars.
My question is this. Do you have a maximum that you personally would spend on a kit, aftermarket stuff, and everything else to build a model the way you want. This is not "How much would you spend to build a contest winning kit?" That is a whole new thread. You can include everything but the time you would spend. Whether that is rare kits, tools, special paint, decals, aftermarket parts, raw materials, chrome plating or what ever. Just curious.
