Well, I will never enforce a rule on the forum because that's just placing a restriction on the marketplace. If someone wants to sell their work for $10 then that's fine, i've done it before because I needed the money...perhaps some people don't do it for these reasons! Also, alot of people might not have the money to buy a $100+ template.

That's fine. We still have a great number that didn't pay for it, I'm sure.

I would not sell my site but switch my clients to a proper partner. Selling my customers seems very rude, So I would ask first

I just get pissed off seeing people spend a few seconds in photoshop, throw a shape and some text together and try sell it for $2 a time. Waste of time and shouldn't be allowed IMO.

Well, no one is forcing anyone to buy someones work. At the end of the day, someone might be looking for a $5-10 design for a quick site/client site/project, I don't want to value someones work and exclude them because I don't think they're good enough.

Some large changes will be made to the marketplace in the new year that will improve it and reduce the amount of regular advertisements/bumping and help exposure for each advertisement posted.

I second that. I think it's a disgrace to the marketplace, if your going to sell something you should at least take your time out to make something nice and sell it for a reasonable price. Like Anthony said, not just throw shapes and text together...

I agree fully with what you say, we dont have to buy it or we don't have to look at it. But it clutters things up a little bit. $10+ is reasonable but anything around $2-$5 is pointless. I doubt it's of publishing quality (again, a generalisation).
