I support this petition.

I am in no way cross with the vendors.  Hell I spent over $50.00 just last night from 5 vendors.  At the end of last month I spent over $70.00 on ratracer products that where going to be pulled when his store was closed.  Before that over $200 during the wale of a sale.  It goes on and on since I have become a member here.  I just won't be purchasing here any more.  If vendors sell elsewhere then I will purchase elsewhere.  If they don't then sorry.  I will not support a marketplace like this. 

I do appreciate the vendors that have taken their freebies elsewhere.  I hope enough noise from both vendors and customers might make them take notice and they will undo the mess they created.

I just posted this as an opinion on the Bait and Switch special.  I wonder if this will get approved?  What does everyone think my chances are. :cursing:

First off I would like to thank the vendors who had particapted in this. 

Now to my real feelings about this.  It is complete and total BS.  Not on the Vendors part but on Renderosity's part.  This was not even a trick but a scam.  This morning when this went live there were no strings attached.  No $5.00 required purchase for the free items and three pages of items to choose from.

Their mistake or "bait and switch" has left a bad impression about this sites honesty.  It has been discussed in length at other sites and even some vendors who were to originally participate have pulled their items to give them away elsewhere as this was there intention all along.  No strings attached.

As I know this probably won't last on this page please read in the Community Center forum on this site and on another big site (one where a ceratin guy just made his debut) to see what is really being said and where a couple vendors so far have posted links to their "free" items.

This actually turned out to be a good deal for me.  As I have only been a member here for about 4 months I totaled up all the purchases that I had made and realized that I have been spending way too much money.  Every little purchase adds up quick when they are all added together. 

Now that this brokerage has decided that they would rather upset their customers instead of honoring their mistakes, it makes it easy for me to save money.  There are plenty of other brokerages and individuals out there to buy from so they will get my money from now on.

I am truly sorry to the vendors that I have purchased from and ones that I have never purchased from that this also hits you with lost revenue but it is a principal issue with me.  I hope vendors will look at this poor decision by this brokerage and consider other venues for their products.
