Have no other products been introduced at PC prices and then moved to the main store at higher prices? I recall a minor revolt last time... when DAZ decided that they had items that would "preview" at PC prices and then move into the store at "full price". PC members complained then that products were not supposed to move, but not very strongly.
PC members are NOT the only ones to be affected by this. Shortly the SS products will be available (if they are not already) at higher prices - and ONLY at higher prices. This will mean this change affects probably all potential DAZ customers, and especially those considering buying into the PC (perhaps partially affected by the wonderful products that SS made?).
If DAZ makes agreements on one side (all PC products will remain at the $1.99 price for as long as your membership is valid) and a DIFFERENT agreement on the other side (you can sell products in the PC but can pull them later) it is not the fault of the members that the agreements do not tally.
It really doesn't matter to me IN THIS INSTANCE who is responsible for thinking they'd like the SS products pulled from the PC - it is IMHO entirely down to DAZ to either keep their word or, once again, break it.
As for how it came about - that looks very sad from the outset, and I'm not sure I want to tarnish DAZ's name any further by knowing any more than I do (which is only from the DAZ statement of what's happened).
