I was looking around on turbosquid and found this.

http://www.turbosquid.com/Search/Index.cfm/FuseAction/ProcessSmartSearch/istIncAuthor/The%20Game%20Creators%20Ltd/blAuthorExact/y

Because of the high prices I think somone may be impersonating TGC.

Just wondering.

Look at the vendor of those models. It's actually us, don't worry about it (hence the 'Seasoned Vendor' status we have on TurboSquid.. a rip-off merchant wouldn't last that long!)

Two reasons: 1) They're the 3DS versions, not the lower-poly .X models sold on the site, and (2) That is the price TurboSquid told us to sell them for! We shipped them a CD full of content, they priced it up, and it sells, so no real reason to change it. TurboSquid is hardly a place to pick-up *cheap* 3D models, so I guess they priced us in with the 'average' of their other vendors.

The people at TurboSquid do that for good reason. They make sure the people that buy models aren't ripped off by expensive horribly done models and for people that make high quality models but really don't know how much their worth.

They keep it well balanced.
