Rakesh Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Aamby Valley in Sahara Lake City in Maharashtra state, India, D8J082, Rakesh Dhareshwar/Alamy The Guardian has already had the image on its website for this month . My account showed this image as zoomed in March . But my account has yet to show it as sale . I had two queries which I would be glad to get an answer for 1. What is the average time you have experienced between an actual sale and the time it shows on your account . 2. Is it possible a sale was effected and the details were never updated on the contributors account ? Thanks a lot for the answers, in advance.

Phil Crean Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Ca be up to 4 months for some newspapers to report a sale, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CandyAppleRed Images Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Unfortunately, Rakesh, it is a bit of a lottery and they get away with murder. 3 -4 months is around the average, but I've had newspaper sales take up to 8 months to come to fruition. My latest one took two months to be reported, back in January and it has still not cleared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacecadet Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 The Guardian is one of the better ones, 6-8 weeks usually. Then 6 weeks to clear of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dov makabaw Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I tend to advise MS of newspaper sales to save time. The Guardian seem to be better than some but I have had some which needed chasing so I pre-empt the process now to save time. dov Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David W Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Rakesh - My most recent sale took over 6 months and some considerable chasing before it went on my account! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Douglas Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I had some Newspaper sales (my first ones) at the beginning of April. The Times and Daily Telegraph sales were reported within a month.Sales to 4 other papers haven't shown up yet, but it sounds like I am doing well to have received what I have!
