I have already address this email in the contributors forum but let me tell you about store credit. If The MarketPlace merchants would like to purchase items using the $$ from their sales here is what happens. 1) send an email to store@renderosity.com with the link to the item you would like to purchase. 2) Someone from the admin team will go into the store and purchase the item for you. 3) the price of the item will be deducted from your monthly sales. For those living outside the US this is a great way to purchase items without having to pay additional with the exchange rates. hope this answers your question, yvette
