The argument that it's always been this way is not a valid argument. I can go to other stores like gumroad and if an item is free, get said item at no additional cost. The idea Ita always been this way sounds more like a refusal to adapt than anything else. Don't refuse to adapt. Especially since there's no credit card fees involved in a free digital sale. Are you charging for the item and then refunding the money at POS? If not, there's no reason a credit card should be required and if so, well then, why the extra 3.50 that would be covered in the initial purchase anyway?so no. The idea it's always been this way is not a good one. Didn't work for slavery, doesn't work in this case either. A bad practice is a bad practice. She goes off sale tomorrow, I will pick her up then. I want to show support to Renderosity and to the Poser community. I just don't want to do it while supporting bad practices. I did that my entire time at Smith Micro and refuse to do it again. Anyway, I appreciate the response. I understand that the store is currently set up this way. I also understand there are better ways. I hope someday, the store here adapts.
