I am glad there is an attempt to start selling diagrams digitally, but it only
stands to prove why piracy exists. Five dollars for a single very simple
penguin? Eight dollars for a single butterfly? Are you out of your mind? So
when you publish your book of thirty models all being worth that you will
charge us $150??? I would maybe try to pay that for a Lang book of his finest
thirty models. You are out of touch and greedy.

hi james,
if you think, that 5 dollars or 8 dollars are the amount, which is sent
to the sellers account, you are wrong.
first the seller is spending money, to create the model and get the
diagrams drawn.
then a fee is subtracted from ousa and from paypal besides, once the
diagrams are sold.
for the money, which finally shows up on the account, you can barely buy
a piece of decent bread in germany.
you shouldn't forget, that there are sellers, who have to make their
living from origami, which means paying the rent, paying the food,
paying clothes, paying for medical treat, paying, paying, paying...
i'm not out of my mind, ...are you? i think it very impolite, to insult
sellers on this list because of their prices!
