Cubebrush is an interesting place for buyers and sellers, but very risky if you belong to the first group. I've come across users who sell products they don't own the rights to (they certainly didn't get permission from the real authors to redistribute them). I bought a couple of STL models from some seller, and only found out after that he was a scammer - in fact, the purchase can be considered as illegal, like downloading files from warez sites. This deducts a lot of points from the "credibility" of shopping on this platform and you have to be careful before buying.
I've had really good luck with this site. Marc is a wealth of knowledge and if you're patient he puts his courses on great deals. It's a bummer there've been some refund issues for some folks, but the weekly freebies and variety make this one of my favorite sites to browse.
I've been shopping on Cubebrush for the last 3-4 years for photo packs (primarily) I use as reference and Photoshop brushes and I've always had a great experience. Once there was something missing in a pack I ordered and the customer support rep got it sorted out with the seller directly within a day. Highly recommend for all sorts of awesome resources for artists.
Cubebrush is an excellent platform for both 2D and 3D artists, offering a dynamic marketplace for buying and selling high-quality 3D models, brushes, and digital assets. As an evolving startup, it continues to grow, providing creators with valuable opportunities to showcase and monetize their work while fostering a vibrant artistic community.
Cubebrush is great if you are a seller because it provides a medium where buyers cannot test the product nor see what will be offered them once they make a purchase. The entire site should be slapped with the warning of, "BUYER BEWARE!"
The platform, I'm sure, informs the seller how many times their course was downloaded and if a particular buyer has even watched the videos or downloaded the material. Therefore, they know whether you have actually used the resources or not and if you haven't, there's no reason why a refund shouldn't still be on the table.
The platform offers refunds within the first week. I sent three emails to their team within that first week and received no reply. Three weeks later, "Mai" responded to me saying there is a no refund policy. This isn't only a lie, it is against fair trading law.
More so, Cubebrush have no vetting process to check whether the sellers are actually selling their own work or not. You will see many resources being sold here that isn't actually the seller's own work (very easy to verify this through Google image search).
Because of this and because this platform does not follow any lawful practice, there is no guarantee that what you purchase on this site is in fact now yours to use. You have nothing to prove your license is yours since:
1. The seller can be selling products that aren't even theirs to license out
2. The site can block you from the items and hold no accountability
No, I do not recommend Cubebrush. I would mark it with thick red tape and warn any buyer from coming here.
