Out of curiosity, what's your single best income ... download? No exceptions (i.e. include any type of sale)
I guess we can also include lowest Smiley

I'll start:
highest - 55.20$ 720p vetta video sale
lowest - 0.19$ xsmall pic (I think)

Although I have a v small port.

I don't know how much enthusiasm you'll get for this thread right now....but my highest dollars sale was an EL for $90. though with a few more Agency files, I'm hoping for some good L/XL sale income. or an EL on an Agency would be cool.

Highest: $106.40, Vetta EL.
But that was last year when our commission was better on ELs and Vettas.
Some recent EL sales reported on iStock threads have been ridiculously low (low credit values).
Lowest: 19c.
Average RPD this year: $4.29. (but my dls are well down)

What do you mean the point?

I'd just like to get an impression on what $$ people are making on the biggest sale. Seems to be in the 200s$ right now.

I'm very surprised to see a 0.07c sale. Wow

There are unadvertised huge discounts to certain buyers (credits under 50c each), special discounts like 20% off for a limited period of time, and allegedly still tons of credits from about 2004 still around. For all I know, the first two may even be combinable.

You're right - I just meant that I wasn't starting a post to get some sort of point or do some computations, I was just curious.
Indeed, to learn something RPD is important. Mine is 3.63 since exclusivity.

EL worth almost 30$+the files size bought along (can't really remember, but not bigger than XL, which would bring me 4$ at best)

a lot more interesting is knowing that looking at your portfolio.. you do have some success with such a small port.. my RPD is on 1.25$ (not exclusive)

Thanks.. in the odd case you're curious, here' more stats:
http://depo.fotozygous.com/stock/micro.htm

I think the real stat at the end of the day is $$/hour, where you have an estimate of the number of hours you've spent on your pix (including the rejected ones). In that department, I'm not doing so well yet (around 12$/hr im guessing, probably more because I'm harsh with my hour estimates). Stil, even doing nothing that number goes up Smiley
