I had a few 0.13$ but never a 0.07$ (minutes ago) which is insanely good :)

If you want to compare apples to apples with other contributors, you want to show the lowest price per credit rather than your lowest royalty. Otherwise someone at a higher or lower percentage can't compare their lowball sale to yours. There is some information in a thread here (http://www.istockphoto.com/forum_messages.php?threadid=311262&page=1) on lowball sales prices.

I think my lowest was .10 - but that was back in the heady days of 20%

You know something ain't right when 20% is considered the "heady" days.

that's the truth. What is the ironic emoticon?

I think my lowest sale was around 0.12 for a small file. :( Not too many of those, fortunately!
-
I have NEVER had a sale for les then 0.48$ (since going exclusive over a year ago) so 0.96$ per credit is the lowest for me.
-
0.47$/credit. Absurd!
-
I think my lowest ever was .10. Lately I am getting a lot at .16, which feels like a little kick in the gut every time it happens.
-
time for some MATH!
20k credits = 14.116,00 € = 0.75 € = 1.04$
this is the biggest plan, I am not getting why I got 0.07$ (6.7%) shouldn´t be my huge 15% ? :)
when were the latest discounts?
-
The very big discounts require a call to sales people - they're not available from the web site.
Several people have written to support querying low royalties and so far (based on what I saw reported in the Help forum) contributor relations says these aren't a mistake. I think about 47 cents a credit is the lowest reported so far (my personal low as 48.something).
I'm assuming that when a big customer gets p@*#ed off about high prices they sell them a hugely discounted pile of credits to mollify them. Another way that the price hikes hurt contributors.

My low was 10 freaking dollars for a 125 credit EL, and 18 freaking dollars for another 125 credit EL a couple of days later... my blood still boils thinking about it >:(

I see, thanks for sharing, this 0.07$ is a 0.4667$ credit

It seems like when IS messes up the site and hurts us, they offer big discounts to pacify buyers, which - you guessed it - hurts us. I suppose you could argue with 55 -85 % going to them it hurts them more, but I am not sympathetic to that argument.

Just had a $0.11. Very disappointed!
-
7c/credit. Above pathetic!
