Vectric seems to be aimed more at the Hobby user. And as a hobby user, I can't justify spending that much on software, after spending X amount on building a cnc router.
I'm not arguing the point that it's not a great package. Don't get me wrong. I think it's very robust (from what I've seen in the forums, posts pics, etc), but I really believe if you wanted to hit your target user and up your sales, you'd half the price.
I don't know. It worked for me, but everyones business model is different.
Thanks again,

I to only do this as a hobby, I have a full time job and I don't want another. But, at the same time when people I don't know approach me and ask if I would make something special for them...i don't mind charging a few bucks.
Vcarve Pro and Photo VCarve have been paid for for sometime now...it only took a few orders to show a profit in my investment. And I don't charge very much for my work...like I said...it's a hobby, I'm not out to get rich.
It was a wise investment...that a hobby cutting guy like myself is very pleased with. I have never purchased a piece of software and received this type of support...that in itself is worth the price IMO.
