Here's where I fall a bit off the PEG wagon.
I tend to but mainly HoE books, and not so much Weird West books.  This
has been because, until recently, I ran HoE excplusively.  I buy
Deadlands books that I think will have a fair amount of material that I
can use in a HoE game (like RVC 2).  Those books have at least, say, 50%
content that's relevant to HoE.  If I'm presented with a book that has
25% or less HoE-relevant material, I'd be as unlikely to buy it as I am
for any Weird West-only book.  I wouldn't spend $20 for a ten-page HoE
sourcebook, so I won't spend it for a 128 page book that only has ten
useful pages either.  I may be the only one who feels this way, but if
I'm not, the HoE players will probably slow down and/or stop buying new
material altogether.  Then you might as well only continue the Weird West
line. anyway.
