Q: When is free not free? 
A: When its Rendo's Trick or Treat!
Granted, $5 is a small price to pay, but
1)the "Entry" page makes NO mention of a min. purchase

2. By changing the goalposts, you really p...off your loyal members & your artists, who provide these goodies for free
3. this is really bad practice to lure in customers & hide the fee.
4. And what happened to P3 of the items that were there originally?

Others may do this, but I always thought that Renderosity was an ethical, customer oriented business. 
Perhaps its time for a rethink.
