I will buy something for gifts for family/friends, or if it catches my eye and I like it. I also will buy something for a template if its something I'd like to make in the future. I've done craft shows for years, and I absolutely *hate* those folks who will either stand there and say "well I can make it cheaper" in a snooty voice or stand back and take a picture of my stuff when they think I'm not looking. So I will be respectful of a vendor who put some time into a project and just buy it.
