Depends. If it is an actuall USEABLE app I surely would. But most of these
apps are so non complete and feature lacking I wouldnt waste a dime on
them. And I would expect it to run stable. Another thing most of these
apps do is crash more often then I care for. If i shell out 50 or 60 bucks
for a financial app, which I would, I expect it to be stable, and very
feature rich. None of this "feature X is in the works".
But I would buy a copy yes if it meets the above requirements.
