I totally agree with Rgus. As a long time and very big former spender here, I can say the majority of items are specifically G2 and V7. A lot are simply converted items. I primarily use Poser. When buying V7 and G2 items (which is infrequent), I go to buy them at where prices are much more competitive (although they are higher there too than they used to be).... Simply put, you cannot compete with the other store on V7 and some G2 items, especially on their sales. By dumping Poser users you've driven away most poser users (as they have though over there at the other store, but there are few older pieces that go on sale every once in awhile) to your other competition who's also running deeper discounts. The tone of the store, and the community forums have changed drastically. I know you don't get the same number of visitors nor nearly the amount of sales. Fine. I do occasionally support favorite vendors who still make poser items (and there are some newer vendors ones I'd support if they were better priced). That said my spending here is about 500% less than it used to be....

To me this is a ghost of what it used to be..... less people participating, an upper management who doesn't care, coupons that really don't work properly, a prime club that basically shafted good customers, galleries and forums that were improperly coded for no reason but poor management decisions (don't use this same web developer).

Honestly, I don't really participate in the forums because of certain trolls who get to run rampant and drive away customers even though they may be knowledgeable in some matters, they get away with posting highly offensive and very rude posts. Mind you other communities have nicer and brighter people who don't have giant egos or chips on their shoulders and are willing to help without any attitude. So it's like a bad version of a high school click here with no real reason to keep coming back.

The dust settled, thinking "what a fine home, at least for now" not realizing that doom would soon be coming in the form of a vacuum cleaner.
