Originally posted by Nickatilynx@Jan 28 2004, 06:00 PM For those that rarely look at GFY (me being one , though today I read it) I thought I'd mention some monthly sales:
AaronM - $8500
Boneprone is alledgedly turning down $12k
Unknowns are being picked up at $500 - $1000pm. (Many by Lensman)
These $$$$$ are nuts..............
--- btw I was the first person ,I think, to pay people to post on WM Boards when I owned Netpond....and look at it now ;-))))
Yep, Wig and I were talking about this yesterday. Maybe I'm just clueless, but to recoup $8500-12K for a monthly sig seems like a HUGE gamble.
I personally don't see this lottery lasting much longer.
(HOWEVER, for $15K a month, I'll gladly continue to promote WTS on the side but put YOUR sig in my posts. )
I have nearly 9000 posts on another board over 7 years. I was told by someone that if I had that on gfy I could get $1k/month easy. Makes no sense to me whatsoever. Half these people only post smileys 100 times a day. I guess it takes a big number of posts to become "respected" by morons. I guess because I don't post there much it makes me a "newbie".

It has been interesting to watch. A good lesson in economics. Almost like selling wigits. Will be fun to see how it turns out.

Personally, I don't think there's any way this will last for a year. I predict by April you'll not see the big $$$ for sigs.

wait till there's a market for sig buyers mid-month try to recoup loss. day one buyer pays $12,300., day 5 , posting to everyone who would listen to his whines. day 10, asking anyone to take it for half, day 20 contacts me to get $500 for the last 10 days.
new market soon I predict. or $15,000 sigs for life. 1 of the 2

That does not make you a newbie...The fact that you clearly do not understand marketing is what might put you in that category.
It's about branding. These sig sales are perfect for branding my own name as well as those who have the balls and bank accounts to back up their bids. Not to mention the branding that the winner receives from my sig views.
It's not just about a post count my friend. I am not my postcount.

It's not filed any differently than filing the money you get from sponsors.

I predict tax-free sigs soon(buyer pays tax on sig) just a guess.
Boneprone wasn't offered anything for his sig, unless he stood in front of a mirror and offered it to himself.
It's funny to watch him strutting around ranting; the man and his "family" are a joke to 98% of GFY but to listen to him you'd think he was the Godfather.
A number of folks' sigs got picked up yesterday, there were a surprising number that didn't. Some folks who make genuinely good posts most of the time were left behind by folks who just post smileys or "just posting for sig placement" statements. Sad.

I never read a thread started by boneprone. He is insignificant and not funny.
Precisely. I saw on GFY that someone bought BradShaw's sig. I do not know how much, but let's just say hypothetical $5,000 . It stands to reason that if BradShaw sold it for $5k then it must be worth less than $5k to him in clicks or he would reject $5k. Soo. I just don't get it. Why does the buyer not realize that the traffic isn't worth $5k?

Originally posted by BradShaw@Jan 28 2004, 09:58 PM My sig was sold to makefuckingmoney for $8000. I was hoping for $10k, but maybe next month.
Ah, well that explains it. I heard on the street that the guy who runs that ain't exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer. Though I heard on an elevator he does have the LARGEST knife!
