Hey there, mes amis!
Earlier today, two posts of the very same model were posted by two different fellow users; the one that is still up is https://zonegfx.com/mso-fate-hd-for-genesis-9/ posted by MH1962. However, I had opened the other post (now taken down) of MSO Fate HD for Genesis 9 up in a tab three or four hours ago before it was taken down later on, along with three other 50-credit posts I wanted to download, having two days and 200 credits of budget.
I had not considered that either post would be taken down nor which one if only one of them would be kept online and link provided upon using my points; I clicked on the 'Pay 50 Credits' link while I still had enough to purchase it (I know the link button doesn't appear if you're fresh out of points) and realized when the button didn't turn into the Mega link that something was wrong. I refreshed the page and realized the post I'd clicked on was the one taken down; as it was still in transition when I refreshed it the payment went through, but now I can't get the model download, as I was charged for the one on the post that was taken down.
Is there any way I could ask the user who posted the now-removed duplicate post to send me a private message with a link to their post on Mega, or might I request the Mega link to the one post that's now active as a substitute, the post link I mentioned in the first paragraph? Aside from taking my word at it, I can only provide proof at my end that the purchase went through for the old link's post by the URL of the 'Oops, Not Found!' page replacing it, which I'll copy-paste here: 'https://zonegfx.com/?p=1950941'

Any time there are duplicate posts of the same item, the one posted first stays on the blog. The most recent of the 2 is deleted. It's a "First Come, First Served" situation. I didn't have anything to do with the posts, but sent you 100 points.
I'll make sure I remember that from now on, thank you for both that clarification and reference from now on, and for the kindness of sending a hundred points my way, good chummer! I just posted you a private message in thanks (and I'm happy I still remembered how to spell Mr. Mxyzptlk's name from DC Comics), but I'll sustain my thanks to you here as well.
I've really enjoyed coming here to ZoneGFX over the last four months, and I am sorry I've been quiet until now. I mean, I've been quiet because I've been having a lot of fun, but it is important to be grateful even in the calm of silence.

@Boude, you seem a little stressed about points. I sent you 1000 to tide you over.
Holy crumpets! <3 I wasn't remotely expecting a gift as big as that, so thank you very much for the 1,000 points. I apologize if my tone came across as being upset or stressed; I wasn't at all, just had been disappointed that my goof ended up spending the 50 credits and also resulted in my not getting the model link initially.
The responses you and Mxyzptlk have made to my original post, and two strangers but fellow users and DAZ modelling enthusiasts doing me each a kindness, have really made my last couple of days, and thank you both for that.
