Why not? They were the most weird sales I could imagine...
~ $70 (http://www.shutterstock.com/pic.mhtml?id=153824651)   or here  over $60 (http://www.shutterstock.com/pic.mhtml?id=147905690)   or this one almost $90  (http://www.shutterstock.com/pic.mhtml?id=169657883)   etc... I mean, those are just snapshots :D

And to be honest, an eL looses it's power when you start selling in normal, fair prices (like with Alamy) ;)

I once had two $100 SoDs on the same day. It was a good day.

Anyone can tell me how much is the price if I have received $58.93? I have not reached $500 total revenue.
Thanks

If any EL-sale will be reported here, we would need an extra discussion group. Nevertheless, congratulations, I hope, you get such sales frequently in future. Then these sales will be nothing special anymore for you 8)

You should get a straight percent of the sale price - you have to trust them on this. The percent depends on how much you have made - under $500 = 20% so theoretically the buyer paid $294.65  It does make one wish buyers would move to the 50% and up sites.

The percentages are 20, 25, 28, 30
