Kneon Light Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Hi Fairly new here so wanted to ask a question - how long is there usually between usage of a photo and it being recorded as a sale? I had a zoom on Friday and then found my photo had been used by the Guardian online - however there is nothing to indicate a sale. Is this usual? Many Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spacecadet Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 The Guardian usually reports by the end of the following month. Often on the last day. So the end of August, and payment will clear in mid-October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Kneon Light Suggest if you are thinking of querying a sale with Alamy, particularly a newspaper sale, leave it a minimum of 3 months as it often takes that long to come through Regards Kumar (the Doc one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
