Our Pricing Policy as self-published, indie creators
Hello everyone!
Today we are launching our first indie release and as we set out to manage our own stores and products, we want to be transparent about our pricing and sales policy.
As vendors we have always believed in offering high quality content for fair prices. It’s a straightforward and simple approach.
We want to feature fair prices year round with special promotions (a.k.a. sales) that happen once or twice a year for 20% to 30% off.
You will notice our sticker prices on Patreon, 3DShards, Flipped Normals Artstation and Renderhub are lower than what you are used to see pre-discounts.
This is because these are the actual prices for products and we do not have to account for an average >50% to 90% discount off our products.
We will be offering an introductory 20% discount for a two weeks period and most likely (nothing is set in stone yet for this year) have a 30% off sale in December. This won’t include products that were released too recently though.
For more than 10 years since we started selling products in 2001, we have had our main sale in December as our anniversary as content vendors falls on the 17th of the month and it’s a meaningful date for us.
This is also to say, do not expect our products to go on sale for 50% off anytime soon. Products that are one of two years old may be discounted more during our annual December sale, but as we’re just getting started it’s a little early to be precise about this.
If you feel that we are offering value for your money, thank you for your support! Feel free to get in touch with any feedback.
We’d also love to know what you like and find useful in the way of options and features in out products as this can help us create even better one for the future!
As a thank you for the interest in our creationg and for the support, we are also building a store-quality freebies library for anyone to enjoy and as a way to experience our offer for newcomers to Aeon Soul.
Thanks for reading through and for any thoughts you’d like to share.
Be Creative!

Congratulations on this next step! Thank you for explaining how things work. After being treated like mushrooms by the main outlet, this is a welcome change. I look forward to classic Aeon Soul offerings!
We feel transparency is important, people should know what to expect and not feel baited or tricked.
For example, we decided on the two weeks introductory period because it feels long enough that those interested have the time to find out about new releases even if they don’t follow us too closely.
Thanks for the congrats, much appreciated :)!
