I am suing Epic because I am unable to sell cosmetic items in the Fortnite store. Epic has a monopoly on it, and doesn’t allow third parties to sell within their store. This needs to change.

This comment is important and timely, as Australia and other countries start to crack down on "app stores" like google's and apple's. I smell gov intervention:

You joke but I 100% expect Epic to start allowing this sort of thing particularly with all the Creative stuff being jammed into Fortnite. In the same manner that they have Itch.io on the Epic Store.

They need to allow me to operate my own store, or I’m suing.

You need to tell them that...
