• Check IPS Profile

  ---

  The seller's user profile in the official InvisionCommunity.com client community is a great starting point to learn more about the seller.  

  Look for things like:

  • Client status
  • Joined date
  • Last Visited
  • Activity & Reputation

   

  IPS Member Search

Recommendations

• Client status

  ---

  The seller should be a Client, the membergroup for paid IPS clients. 

  Be careful of anyone who is not a Client, which means they cannot develop on a legitimate license. 

• Join Date

  ---

  The seller should join for 6 months or longer.  

  Be careful of anyone who recently joined. 

   

• Last Visited

  ---

  The seller should visit the IPS community every month or less.  

  Be careful of anyone who has not visited for more than 3 months. 

• Activity & Reputation

  ---

  The seller should have an ongoing history of participation with positive reputation and achievement. 

  Be careful of sellers with large gaps in activity or no reputation. 

• Check Support & Buying Policies

  ---

  Before you buy, look for clear support and buying policies on the author's website:

  • Support channels
  • Pricing and renewal terms
  • Refunds
  • Chargebacks

Common Buying Standards

• Before You Buy

  ---

  Before you buy, make sure to read the file's description, ask questions, and check for compatibility. 

  You are responsible for what you buy. 

• Refunds

  ---

  If you did NOT download the file, you can request a refund.

  If you did download the file, no refund is normally given except at discretion of author.

• Chargebacks

  ---

  Chargebacks are a serious penalty to the author.

  You should only pursue a chargeback after you attempted to resolve in good faith.

• Providers

  ---

  Look for the Providers badge, the only trust certification issued by IPS.  

  Providers are developers, themers, and other contributors with a history of experience in the client community.  

• Go Private

  ---

  Do you have a theme or mod that is critical to the functioning of your community?  Want to customize something you see in the Marketplace? 

  Go private with an ongoing relationship or custom job. 

  • Customize features to your needs
  • Ensure the file is maintained
  • Deepen trust with one developer 

  Reach out to the author on their site.

• Standards of Service
