In this instance though, I feel 45FC for each of the three 4x4 tools is a bit excessive. Of course some people will choose to take up the offer and good luck to them.

135FC total for all three equates to the cost of 4 (even 5) FC facilities (I know which option I'd choose). When compared to 50FC for the manure spreader, which effectively doubles harvests (therein potentially halving the number of crops you need to plant), and which I had no hesitation in purchasing, these latest tools just aren't good value for money in my view. 45FC for all three would be closer the mark.

And before one or two regular forum contributors jump on this view as whining or whinging, let me pre-empt such a comment by stating that my understanding of this forum is that it allows each and every member to freely express a view on the game, and perhaps even offer a constructive criticism to the game developers. Indeed, some of the most widely welcomed, and value added changes introduced by the developers over time have no doubt (in part) arisen from their heeding the critical feedback of forum members. A critical comment does not necessarily equal a 'whining' comment, and perhaps it's time some people exercised some civility of their own and respected that fact.

You just won the internet.
I agree with you 100%.
