I have stopped buying at Envato and Codecanyon, themeforest, etc. for good reason. First there are no guarantees of updates and not that the product will even be on the site for a full year. I have had more products disappear than I would like to have believed.

Now there is a 6 month update policy. You know what is going to happen. Author won't release updates for 6 month periods, ratchet in revenue, minimize bug fixes and any feature releases. I'd rather buy from a private vendor that has a template and plugin site and a loyal set of customers. I'm done with Envato and this latest money grab.
