John Mitchell Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Does the "Sales Volume" graph on the My Alamy page only show sales for your main pseudonym? I have two pseudos, and the volume graph currently shows 54 sales so far this year. However when I check "Your Images" in Alamy Measures, I see 54 sales for my main pseudo and three for me secondary one (which only has about 350 images in it) for a total of 57. Has anyone else noticed this discrepancy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Mitchell Posted July 2, 2014 Author Share Posted July 2, 2014 How about those of you with multiple pseudos? Do the graph sales volume numbers match those given in Alamy Measures? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SShep Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Hi John, I have about a half dozen pseudos and the two figures match perfectly. Could it be a time lag in the two sets of data? Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Yates Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Hi John, I have 12 pseudos and when I compare the graph and Alamy measures I have a difference of one?. Regards Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Don't think so. The three sales from my secondary pseudo were made early this year. Guess I should contact Alamy about the mismatch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearl Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 I find that sales shown in measures is not accurate as it doesn't take account of refunds whereas I think the graph does. Could this explain the descrepency? Pearl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dov makabaw Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 My sales volume, 10 years, on the dashboard is 18 images lower than in the sales detail. I have looked at returns, novel use and different pseudos but have not found a reason. The revenue is the same and that is what counts at the end of the day. dov Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could this explain the descrepency? Pearl It could very well be. I've had three images refunded this year and two of them resold at different prices. Perhaps Alamy Measures is based on all transactions while the graph shows only actual sales. Good detective work. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
