I had a $1.9 sub sale for a 10 credit vector... that's not good since most of my 10 credit vectors sell for $2.3 per download.. o well.. maybe i'll get lucky next time!

It may not be great, but it's not only a subs issue. I just got a $1.90 10-credit vector sale this morning - pay as you go credits. Someone just bought their credits with a big discount (usually it's $2.40 or so). As prices go up, it gives buyers a bigger incentive to go for the discounts on the larger packages....

Yes, sometimes I'm surprised as to how much royalty I get for the PAYG sales. My lowest is at $0.18 for a 1 credit vector. That's half of what I get from subscription sales in other sites ahahaha! But hopefully those 1 credit files give me more downloads.

I have another sub sale which is still pending update now so I'm hoping that when it updates, I will be pleasantly surprised and hope that it won't be another $1.9 royalty for a 10 credit vector sale.

Sigh.. it's still $1.9 for the 10 credit vector. Is the $0.19 per credit the normal sub royalty we get? So I won't hope for more? The way IS introduced it (well at least to me...) sounded like we could get lucky and we could get lucky often and get more than the PAYG royalties.. guess not.

Tonight I had my first sub-sales, 0,95$ for a medium size.

CofkoCof · « **Reply #79 on:** August 01, 2008, 05:08 »

First sub sale that I found: 10 credit vector file, got 1.9$ (minimum as expected). I get 2-2.8$ for a normal sale.

I just got my first subscription sales:

Large 2.60
Medium 0.57
Large 1.90

Much better than the dime crap on the other sites

ericfoltz · « **Reply #81 on:** August 01, 2008, 19:17 »

Had a few so far. All XS or Medium.

M: $1.70
XS: .29

I've only had four total, and none were minimums. How many have you had?

sharply_done · « **Reply #84 on:** August 02, 2008, 11:13 »

I've had 9: 1 x 0.19, 4 x 0.57, 1 x 0.95, 2 x 1.90, 1 x 2.00.
Average price = $1.02

I'm surprised that IS doesn't sell more subs. I've had a lot more (80+ on FT) where the sales volume is nowhere near IS.

fotografer · « **Reply #85 on:** August 02, 2008, 11:40 »

11 now and only 3 were more than 19c. My average is less than what I get on SS. I'm not complaining as I guess that I have just been unlucky,

So it sounds like you've been selling mostly XS images then. What sizes are you selling on SS?
Oh never mind, I guess it doesn't matter. I also wonder why there aren't more sales on IS, but I suspect part of it is portfolio subject matter and how it matches up with those buyers that would have a subscription plan.

fotografer · « **Reply #87 on:** August 02, 2008, 18:56 »

As I said I'm not complaining just answering the OP. I think that the way IS have handled sub sales is a lot fairer than the way most of the sites do it and it's just unlucky for me they they mostly bought xs. While the number of sub sales are so low it really doesn't matter anyway.

You can now see all your sub sales at "My uploads" page if you click "Subscriptions" at the top of the page.

madelaide · « **Reply #89 on:** August 11, 2008, 16:55 »

Still none for me. Isn't it curious that in the only site that made subs a bit digestable to sellers I don't get any, whereas this month in DT they are so many that they're 60% of my dlds?

Regards,
Adelaide

Mellimage · « **Reply #92 on:** August 12, 2008, 01:38 »

1x$0.57
1x$0.95

Read_My_Rights · « **Reply #93 on:** August 12, 2008, 08:25 »

2x0.24

cdwheatley · « **Reply #94 on:** August 13, 2008, 00:45 »

30 sub sales
average .57

not bad considering next highest site is .38

jsnover · « **Reply #95 on:** August 23, 2008, 03:15 »

I have only 7 subs sales so far, but today's was for $19.19 which pushes the average way up

2 x .19
1 x .57
3 x .95
1 x 19.19

Average $3.28... but I probably shouldn't count extended licenses in the average as it skews the picture somewhat.

DiscreetDuck · « **Reply #96 on:** August 23, 2008, 04:09 »

Average = $0.875 for 8 sub sales.
Corresponding somewhere between small and medium regular sale. Nice

lathspell · « **Reply #97 on:** August 23, 2008, 10:40 »

1 sub-DL so far, worth $0.19 - not a success story I think ...

Gimmerton · « **Reply #98 on:** August 23, 2008, 11:05 »

1 butterfly download worth $0.95

MikLav · « **Reply #99 on:** August 23, 2008, 17:23 »

I only have a couple of subs so far
