I bought my rig, then lost my job in the same week. Does this qualify as expensive?

I just ordered a new rig and its getting close to $1000 dollars. My mrc and my scaler have hardly any money into them though because I built them on the cheap

If your not Comping and you spent over $1000. I don't see that very smart.

If you do your research and find deals or used stuff you can save a fortune $$.
With my 1/8 scaler buggy, I built most of it and doubt It's over $600. see my build thread below.

my new berg I was about $300.

I shake my head at chrome and aluminum parts
