Quote - I think I see a more vendors slowly trying out Genesis than Dawn. Not a flood of desertions, just a kind of a gradual drift. Daz is giving the software and basic figures away, and people are trying it out.

Unfortunately, it's because now that Dawn is out, the main marketplaces are shoving her down our throats even though only 2% of people use her.  If your item isn't for Dawn as well as the other more popular figures, you can't even get accepted unless you're a top vendor.  It's a great way to alienate not only your current & future vendors, but your clients as well.  It hurts your sales & reputation in the end.  It makes me not want to even shop at these places so I just stop giving them my money unless it's for a figure I DO use, which isn't Dawn.  Personally, I think Dawn is fugly.

At this point, it makes me want to go back to modeling props instead of what I like modeling, dynamic clothes & accessories.  I feel my creativity is stifled by the multiple marketplaces' desire to force people over to a new figure by forcing out potential vendors who don't like Dawn & will probably never 'want' to use her.  If I ran my Real business this way, I'd be out of business pretty quick.  You have to have variety because not everyone is going to like or want a new shiny figure. 

I know what you're talking about, I left that place as a vendor and never want to come back to it or buy there again. They're so controlling. I simply hate the hype all these stores create around a figure that isn't even worth all the hype at all. Just because some famous names made her, doesn't mean she's good at all.

Quote - Did they specifically say the product was not accepted because of no Dawn support? Unless that was specifically the reason, I don't believe rendo will enforce such a rule. Could be the product was not accepted for other reasons. I would like more clarity on this. Because if they are not accepting based on no Dawn support, well then that is an issue. To be honest I don't think they will ever place that requirement on PA's simply because some do not even own the latest versions of Poser which she can only be used in.

It's not Rendo, but there are stores that are very controlling and put unbelievable demands on vendors and are very good at driving vendors mad and even detroy their business while doing so. Been there, seen that, experienced that, never turning back and I must say that this place is slowly heading that way. Vendors get less and less freedom, if you've been around long enough as a vendor you know what I'm talking about.

Artwork and 3DToons items, create the perfect place for you toon and other figures!

Due to the childish TOS changes, I'm not allowed to link to my other products outside of Rendo anymore :(

Food for thought.....
