I want to buy icons

I want to buy some stock icons. Is the credit card processing fixed, or can I use paypal? Has anyone bought icons yet?

Hey Barb, credit card processing does seem to work for most folks, but international cards still have some problems. You're welcome to try, but if it doesn't work, send us an email and let us know what you'd like to purchase — and we can let you pay with PayPal.

How does the VIP discount for the "for Pay" products work? When I browse through them I do not know what price I am looking at? The price strikes me as being the same as before I was VIP.

I was told by my bank that it was an anti-fraud measure to refuse credit card payments of small amounts to an overseas (in my case non-UK) company.

a purchase of a starter stock set would probably trigger this, but a full set would probably not.

I may case, my bank phoned me up a week after refusing the payments, to ask if I made them (and not someone stealing my card/card details) since confirming this was the case I seem to now be able to make card purchases here. :-)

Hope this helps

GSWD > does it not show two prices (discounted and not) when you go to the set's page, it does for me.

gswd, above the icon, there should be a VIP price now. Before, it simply gave you the $25 off discount at check out.

Yeah, for some reason the VIP Price went into hiding a while back, but that should be rolled back out now.

gswd -- you'll only see the discounted price if you have a VIP account and are logged in with that account.

Ok. I guess I was looking during the "downtime". It is visible now.

Any idea as to when there will be some more sets available there (specifically the Starter, CMS, or Blog). Unless something new has been added, I should already have all of the Starter sets.
