Ever backed a crowd-funded game? How much do you part with for such projects?

If I like what I see I don't mind backing them but I would never go to the stupid packs that are like $200 and all that

My current active projects iv'e backed + I did a £15 Yooka Laylee but I missed the kickstarter but payed them through the extension they did.

Wow, nothing less than $20. I'd love it if you'd put even $2 towards my project. Yes, I have a $2 option, because my goal is to raise $1,000 and I think a lot of people contributing $20 or less would go a long way. But we can discuss all that in thread I posted in the OP. More on topic for this thread, what was your motivation to actually back these games?
