Really? Since when? Most of friendly dealers who are always faced with such DIY via commercial "shootouts" usually only laugh on the side in order of not offending DIY guy (there is 0.1% chance he will become a customer one day)How many DIY guys can afford to make valid comparisons to make any claims 5% ???. How many of DiY-ers having at home reference quality component can claim that it can DIY something better? (well making clone doesn't obviously count does it? even clones can be far behind due to custom parts)Now , after spending a little fortune on all those silver parts how much of return in the case of emergency DIY guy will get for his efforts , 1/3 of parts cost?? I would not be so quick with conclusions. Lets say that its rewarding hobby and nice way to spend time and money.
