Here's something laughable I just noticed that has appeared in seller Settings!

Discussion started by mkiii

This option taken from my settings today, at the bottom under the section regarding the option include your objects in sales & promotions.
Note Line 3... You can allow them to sell YOUR models to anyone they want, at ANY PRICE THEY DECIDE, and offer ANY Rate they decide. What an F'ing joke! Has anyone here actually opted IN to that?

I believe all these innovative miraculous selling options and license types were enforced to everyone by default and it's up to seller to opt out, so probably 90% of all sellers are opted in. I wouldn't call such behaviour laughable, i think it's borderline of being criminal.

Even if you opt out, you will be opted in without your consent, due to an upgrade, offer to opt out/in for a new feature, etc.... You will only find out after you make a sale and find out you just gave an 80% discount to some customer.

But above that option, if you participate in classic discounts, they smuggled note about "Best price guarantee"

"Best price guarantee
You agree that the price of your models on CGTrader will be the lowest available online, with the exception of your own website. If a customer provides evidence before the purchase that your model is listed at a lower price elsewhere and requests price matching, we will adjust the price with a discount to fulfill that request."

No fkin way. I'm selling models elsewhere cheaper because they give me higher royalties and they don't do some shady things to me every two weeks.

I saw this option a couple of months ago. I immediately disabled it. However, you should check your settings periodically. They changed on their own. I was surprised by this. I also recommend checking the Donations tab.
