it's unusual to get 4 the same subject, same price. Multiple sales are normally bulk discount deals in my experience.

Aaarghhhh!! Just sold the classic looking-at-camera-micro-style picture!!! FF87RB for $52

I've just finished to tell others not to shoot these kind of pics as they don't sell here!

It's been a long time coming, but finally got a sale of $63 for a picture of a JCB 😁😁😁

[JamesH 33]

2nd sale a few days ago, a dubious PU and judging from people here those may get refunded. Of all the places I've been and photographed in the world this one must have been the dullest photo I've uploaded, not even nice light!

 

Still, had a fantastic few days taking photos on the Kenyan coast which I was more mindful to shoot for stock, hopefully they sell.

Just had a $76 book sale come through. Not the highest I've had for a book, but I'm still very happy with that. It's one I wrote to Alamy about a few days ago as I found it online, and I was waiting to hear back about it. So I'm guessing that's why it came through today, because they chased it up. So thanks Alamy if that's the case.

Do we really need to chase these things up? If Alamy are taking 50% of everything shouldnt they be earning their money?

Yes, it's interesting how many report a few days after a nudge. Perhaps they dropped it down the back of the sofa.

[Cecile Marion 137]

Congratulations! That's very nice.

Do you know how long ago the photo was picked up by the book publishers?

I'd be interested to know how you tracked down the sale, if you wouldn't mind saying.

If a self-reporting client doesn't, in fact, report, what is Alamy supposed to do?

[Hellonearth 86]

My point exactly!. Isnt that why they "earn" 50 %

My Pippa Middleton pictures just keep on giving - a sale of one yesterday for $241.  That's only my second 3 figure sale and it feels mighty fine!

Thanks very much!  I can't believe how much exposure these pictures have had - Nationals, magazines, front pages etc, but to be honest, I'm sick of seeing the pictures at this stage!

Count the money - you'll soon feel better.

Two distributor sales this morning have taken my gross earnings this year to just over my gross for last year.  Haven't exceeded the sales total yet - 84 so far in 2017 vs 97 for 2016 - but with nearly 5 months left it's definitely on course to be my most successful year since I joined Alamy in January 2014.

I was beginning to worry that I was heading for a blank month. No fear!  One for $120 bounced in today.  Hopefully no refunds.

Thank you, although I wouldn't marry her for all the tea in China.  My gf is so much better than her - my gf is spectacular!

A $250 book sale popped up today. Encouraging to see. Thanks, Alamy.
