It has to be a good series in order for me to buy it when the manga gets licensed. It bothers me when I read the licensed version, and I still remember what the scanlations read. There are a lot of different ways to translate certain phrases, and it really bugs me.

I always thought that scanlations were a kind of advertisement for the manga. If I think it is a good manga by reading the scanlation, then I will buy it but if it is not, then I won't buy it.

I agree with Cicak. If the manga is good enough in quality, story, and translation, then sure, I'll support the series. Why not? I like it, so I might as well show my support to the people who made it. Make sure they stay in business and the like.

I buy almost every manga on the market in my country, so maybe I will buy it, but only if it's worth the money. If it's crappy then I won't buy the manga.

Not usually.

I can't afford to buy all the manga I want, so I usually buy what I havent read yet.

If it's a series that I really like, I'll go out and buy the manga when it's released just to own it as a book. xD
