They claim that when you buy the theme you get some extra value included:
[...]
Additional Values
Revolution Slider ($19)
LayerSlider ($18)
[...]
But they give you free versions and pocket the 37$. This is false advertising and I advice you that you get your money back with your CC company as fraud.
I am a software engineer and looked at the code base of the plugins and they are not affiliated with codexthemes which means they cannot be updated by thegem theme. The have their own separate update channels with envato or themeforest, etc.
See the screenshots also for more claims that they give you 37$ of value and also the fact that they are not registered.

Hi Mike, we have already replied in the comments section on themeforest that there are NO FREE versions of this premium plugins available anywhere. All this plugins come bundled with TheGem and are fully functional and all updates come via our repository (because we always need to check for possible compatibility issues first). Check this article https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/213762463-Bundled-Plugins?_ga=2.149217142.1738545942.1494406299-1181752551.1482325830 . We have clearly stated this on our item page, see http://prntscr.com/f64b4l
Please note if you comment on your ticket before we reply, your ticket will be pushed down of the tickets list.
