eCommerceFuel: price, who can join and alternatives

eCommerceFuel is a vetted community for owners of ecommerce stores turning over seven figures or more, built around an online forum, a member directory and events. It costs US$199 a month for 7-figure owners or US$299 for 8-figure+, with the first 30 days for US$1. You must own at least 25% of a qualifying store and pass an application.

Checked on against eCommerceFuel's own pages. Remote Builders runs a free founder community too, so it appears in the alternatives, marked "(ours)".
