Not really a fan of that type of profit in hobbies like these. If the parts become too expensive, a number of people who appreciate this equipment get priced out of it, and then nothing gets supported at all. That's half of the fun of vintage lightweights - a relatively minimal cost barrier into the hobby.

Absolutely. I think all manufacturers should do that. However, then no one would buy the new stuff.
