In the past I've thought about buying. Today I wanted to buy a plugin, but I have been now not interested to buy. Price increase by more than 100% is large and unfounded price increases. I am willing to tolerate price of $60. The current price is disproportionate and I was no longer interested in buying.
If the author has financial problems - should create new plugins, not kill existing.
You should again reassess the current price...
