I say amen!!! Look I suck at painting and as much as I'd like to have the proverbial pro painted army, I suck at balancing my check book too.kalamire wrote:I see that a lot people want to value the models because it's "Pro-Painted" my response is always " It doesnt match my paint scheme so I'l have to strip it anyways." I don't think painted or unpainted matters that much, at-least not to me.

So your pro painted [fill in the blank] is really not worth 600% msrp. Yes I saw an offer on fee-bay for a riptide the was painted for $600. Pretty, yes, worth it no.
My army will be painted at my skill level and suck equally. I will offer some one fair market value and that is all
Returning to real life now...
