I sent them a message. I really hope it's a mistake. Will post back here if i get a reply. I remember saw some pop-up on the site about getting some full HD footage free, could that be?

Maybe it's an adjustment on a earlier sale?

No, that video was never sold before. No reply from SS yet.

OK, just got a reply from SS, not definite yet, but at least we know it's a mistake:

"This certainly appears to be an error in the licensing of this clip and we are investigating this matter. Please allow us a few more days to look into what type of license this clip was acquired with and we will get back to you as soon as we research this matter."

Thank you Shutterstock!

If this were anything other than an error, i would, without hesitation , pull every single one of my clips

So it is somewhat comforting to know that

It turns out to be a $150 sale, just got the balance today. Thank you Shutterstock!

Angela, you may want to email them about that sale, if you haven't already.
