I don't want to give the impression I thought HiTechnic stuff was
overpriced-in fact, they were far underpriced considering the effort and
care John put into them. It was a matter of time required to put orders
together I think that made fulfilling all those orders impossible. All I'm
saying is that HiTechnic isn't a good example of a third party product which
was starved for support, which I refuse to give just because they're
servicing the Lego community.
It's the latter example you gave, the Centreline Lego train track cleaner
which I have long stated is overpriced, which I dont' think we need to
pander to just because they drilled some holes larger to fit Lego trucks...
