Hi.
As a newcomer from Germany, I would like to say something.
Of course, I agree with your opinion about recaster, but often we have no other choice.
Rationale:
Some manufacturers of you refuse to deliver their products to germany.
Our mails are not answered, or refused without further justification.
From this I conclude: germany is on the blacklist
Certainly there are recaster in germany, however where are they not?
But that is no reason to treat everyone in a country like recaster.
If the embargo continues, we can only buy recasts. (I don´t speak about "standard" costumes like a Stormtrooper)
Or we bury our dream since we don´t want to spend so much money for bad recasts.
Not every one of us has the ability to produce an armor.
I thought always it means worldwide community and not hostility....
These are my impressions and my thoughts.
