I got a subscription with mythemeshop, they got very nice support.
I wish a “try before you buy” option was more prevalent. I too try to use nulled themes to evaluate and if I like them and they work as needed, I buy the license. Usually from Themeforest. When starting out I bought a few themes based on front end demo that were crap or didn’t do what i needed them too. Never deploy nulled themes, learned this the hard way.
i use the ones posted on here to test them then buy the theme .
