Marb Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Before I pop a champagne cork at 2 sales ( $164 and $206) of the same image at royalty free, does this seem like an error or mistake ? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may not be...keep your fingers crossed! I have had that happen and they both were paid. Just never for the amounts you posted. I hope they stick! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Mr Standfast Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 It's deserved! Stay safe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Marb Posted October 13, 2020 Author Share Posted October 13, 2020 Thanks, even if one of them turned out to be a refund I would still be happy with at least one or the other. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 John Mitchell Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 I've had this happen as well. Usually one sale gets refunded, but sometimes both of them stick. Best of luck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Brizbee Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Had the same happen to me in May. 2 sales of the same picture, on the same day, with the same license details, each for $245. I immediately thought it was a mistake and spent the next 45 days expecting one of them to be refunded. But it didn't happen, the images were paid for, and I got one of my best pay days in my short time here. And just recently I've had 3 sales of the same picture, on the same day, with the same license details, though this time for only $7 each. So it seems to happen quite often. Fingers crossed that your sales stick. These days I think we deserve this kind of result every now and then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Marb Posted October 15, 2020 Author Share Posted October 15, 2020 Well, after another small sale today, I will certainly be concentrating my uploads here rather than microstock if this kind of thing happens more often. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You haven't got these same images on microstock have you??? Do not answer that question!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Aggers Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Happened to me once, unfortunately one was soon refunded! Alamy will let you know if that is the case. As your payment differs in amounts you should be OK (mine was the same amount so I suspected an error)- but don't spend it all just yet|||| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
