The one item in her store that lists Poser 11 is also compatible with DS and everything else going back to Poser 6+. So if that is the item in question, and it didn't sell well, is it really accurate to cite P11 compatibility as being the culprit?

I can't imagine there is much of anything still being made for V4 that gains that much traction in the stores anymore unless it's truly a unique product or something that is usable by multiple figures - considering her market share is pretty well exhausted. But it goes back to the long running debate about vendors not willing to support figures that aren't daz. Yet there are at least a few who do make products for non-daz figures and do very well as a result.

According to various vendors the hot list is not an accurate method of gauging how many sales a particular item gets. There are at least a few Poser products on the first few rows of the hot list right now.

Again, we're engaging in yet another round of vendor blaming. That's not the problem. If the features aren't properly documented or incomplete, like not being able to export an obj that isn't grouped or unable to use an HDRI in a scene Superfly scene without a 3rd party addon, and the "replacement" for it is hard to change, is that the vendor's fault? If the features aren't compelling enough for a vendor product known for good work barely make it to a 2nd page of the hot list, is that the vendor's fault? The problem yet again, is these discussions refuse to take the proper entity to task for issues, blaming everyone else. Until that mindset changes, nothing else will.
