In the comments section under this picture in his gallery, he discusses what happened a bit. He thinks Rosity did the right thing, siding with a new merchant against him, and says he doesn't want a flamewar or anything started. However, he also says that other stores have "competing product" policies that would have protected him, while Rosity doesn't. I wonder if that means he'll sell Steph Petite at PoserPros or DAZ or something?

He also explains a bit why he's closing his store. His solution to the problems Shadownet discusses is to start selling items with less innovation (and presumably less development time), for lower prices. But to do that, he feels he has to close his store for awhile. I guess so people who bought at higher prices won't be angry.

Sounds like he's considering taking the BVH/Quarker tack - put out products of such high quality, priced so low, that no one will bother buying copies. And you make up in sales volume what you lose on profit margin.
