Anton acted as a responsible member of our community by posting this immediately. $50 is not pocket change! They apparently are still selling this model. Are refunds given? Sharing knowledge is what this place is all about. Sure, some folks may want to buy it anyway, but they should be making an informed decision. A well-done derivative model - presented as such - has value, although customers likely would expect a more reasonable price for one. BTW, if I put a model into a layer in Lightwave and trace the mesh (requiring a lot of time and talented work), the new mesh would be 100% "created" by me. If that was legal, there would be zero copyright protection for modelers.
