I do not go into specifics. I just get more than one use out of my content.

Sometimes quality is better than quantity.
For some surfers yes.
Some content licensers under price, it is not my issue. So they move a lot of sets. Many just are not profitable.
Donnt is telling how cheap he can shoot to maybe get some new clients. You are making this thread to change the minds of some so they buy your content.

You have to see who is a content provider who does not need to slash his prices to stay afloat.

The $1000.00 one can not get price slashed.

At the point I make the purchase I may not know how old the set is. Maybe it is just time to move older sets to some blowout site.
Maybe he has a fire or a medical emergency and needs fast funds.
Shit happens that is unpredictable all the time.
Two other points for exclusive.
It is a business expense and for some it helps with taxes.
I am the one responsible for 2257. I know the release is good and up to my expectations. I have piece of mind.
