February 24, 201313 yr I wonder how much do you spend in a month for FSX addons? There are lots of scenery releasing each month so I wanted to learn what is the average amount you spend on them? I wasn't playing FSX for a longtime but when I got new laptop, I returned to play it and I have bought lots of scenery this month. Büke Yolaçan
February 24, 201313 yr FSX addons is like smoking marijuana. It's highly addictive. You'll sell everything you own to purchase some more. I have too many to count and i'm estimating that I have purchased well over $1,000
February 24, 201313 yr I purchase one or two add-ons every few months. I almost always wait for reviews, as I must use my limited budget wisely.
February 24, 201313 yr I don't want to know, otherwise I'll get depressed :( Jude BradleyBeech Baron: Uh, Tower, verify you want me to taxi in front of the 747?ATC: Yeah, it's OK. He's not hungry.

February 25, 201313 yr I try to limit myself to about $50 a month. Doesn't always work, though. Joel Murray @ CYVR (actually, somewhere about halfway between CYNJ and CZBB)
February 25, 201313 yr Total for 2012 is $300 for software and $170 for hardware. Call it $25 per month for software Total for 2011 is $90 for software. Total for 2008 to 2010 is $100 for software and $450 for hardware. I got FSX as a Christmas gift in 2007. I didn't count that. Hook Larry Hookins Oh!

February 25, 201313 yr I was amazingly prolific in purchasing for FSX once; probably at least $100 a month, but that has come to a complete halt. We are all connected.....

February 25, 201313 yr I try to limit myself to about $50 a month. Doesn't always work, though. Me too. Usually I wait for reviews, except if tit's a "trusted"developer like ORBX. And if there's a new release that I've waited for a long time it may happen that I go over my limit. Florian
February 25, 201313 yr I used to spend quite a lot, but with all the copy protection and activation that follows with many addons these days I rarely buy anyting. Money saved and I have lots of fun discovering great freeware. Simmerhead - Making the virtual skies unsafe since 1987!
February 25, 201313 yr FSX addons is like smoking marijuana. It's highly addictive. You'll sell everything you own to purchase some more. Clearly you know nothing about marijuana. Anyway, I don't really keep track although I'm sure it's way more than I should spend. It makes me happy though, so I don't stress over it too much.

February 25, 201313 yr Too much, that´s for sure. But 90% from sales, so it is not that bad and I´m very very picky, so I guess it is on reasonable grounds.
