Title: Credit sales cheaper than subs
Post by: Dreamframer on October 01, 2010, 11:57

My last credit sales at DT are smaller than subscription sales. For example, in few days I have:

4 sub sales and 6 credit sales.
Sub sales are worth $0,35 - $0,7.
At the same time, I had:
1 credit sale for $0,11
2 credit sales for $0,2 each
1 credit sale for $0,28
Even one credit sale worth 3 credits was only $0,55

I expect to see those royalties at iStock next year for most non-exclusives.

Race to the bottom eyh?

Regardless of size, you still put the same effort into the picture... and this is also an insult.

Check the credit purchase dates, it's quite likely they are old credits, with a lower value.

The lowest credit I see in my DT stats is 19c. It may get lower with the taxes, I guess.

I don't mind the low sales and subs nearly as much on DT as on other sites as each of them quickly brings you nearer to another pricing level.
