Hi guys,

Is it possible to have a single Bazaar item that is both "free" - as in instantly downloadable without a fee - and "supported" - as in downloadable for a fee (annual support fee)?

Would you need two items - the "free" version and the "free but supported" version so that you can determine who has paid for support?

Thoughts? Suggestions?

Thanks in advance

Yup, you'd maintain two different versions of the item. Call one  
"Lite" or "Unsupported" and the other would just be the regular name.  
So If you had Widget X it would be:


Widget X Lite - Free


Widget X - $99


This way you can also include different things with it. For example  
The regular version might include an extra instructional PDF as a  
download along with the Widget X file. Or the Widget X Lite version  
may not have the same functionality as the regular version. Then  
again, the difference could simply be the support offering as you  
suggest.
