Well people in shops buy the merchandise off the makers of the merchandise in the first place Otakua world dosn't pay kiss makers to put there dolls on the site.
Well, we do give artists free subscriptions which have a monetary value which is greater than what a percentage of the profits would get them. A "free subscription" isn't free for me to give away - I still have to pay for the bandwidth that the subscription uses so it does have value. Instead of paying the artist directly, I cover the costs of their bandwidth.
No, we don't send out actual cash money or checks to the contributing artists because there isn't that much profit. Maybe, one day, when enough people subscribe so that there is lots of profit, we can pay the artists real money beyond a free subscription. Who could object to that?
I bet you'd be pretty cross if someone took your tv and then sold it on the web.
That would depend on the situation. I only post dolls that the KiSS artists tell me to post. So, I suppose if I told someone to sell my TV on the web, I would not be angry with them for selling my TV on the web. On the other hand, I might be disappointed with them if I told them to do it and then they did not do it.
