My new theme just got accepted to WordPress category and it’s priced at $35.

A responsive theme with shortcode manager, theme options, custom widgets, premium (extended license) slider gets $35? Buyers will probably neglect it for being simple with this price point.

Seriously, I will not even open a support ticket for this one.

PS: According to this post by Carmen: A responsive theme has to be priced at least $45: http://themeforest.net/forums/thread/wordpress-category-pricing-changes/66682?page=1#587872

Woooh man! Take a rest! You are Elite Author. You’ll get your 1000 of sale as it used to be.

Btw I’m looking now other templates, also responsive… interesting options… even with lower price then it’s used to be. Mine template recently also responsive… also with minimal price. Maybe responsive is not something cool any more?

LOL ? Are you serious? I’m sorry but this is Business and not Kindergarten. Even he is Elite he has the right for the full price, don’t he? There was an ongoing discussion about raising the prices so there should no wordpress theme for 35$ anymore…

You can ask the staff to review the price if you think is too low or to high.

I was not going to submit a support ticket, but Ruben’s post cracked me up. So I did submit a ticket, but last time I submitted a ticket, it took Envato 7 days to return, and the theme will be out of frontpage by then…

I don’t know who flagged infuse ’s post, but he is right. This is a business and should be taken seriously.

I have a retina macbook, and last time I checked, theme looked crisp :D I didn’t use x2 images, cause I know its too much hastle for the buyer.

I used an icon font for most stuff so they should look sharp on every device.

but Ruben’s post cracked me up

From this answer i’m not sure if you felt offended by my post or not.. So if you were, i wasn’t trying to do that.. I was just saying that i also didn’t agree with the pricing on my latest item, submitted a ticket & encouraged you to do the same..
