My point was/is if they did spend the time and effort to learn how to convert your traffic optimally, they're halfway there and learning how to generate their own better targeted traffic as this is much easier then they think.
If I were new in the biz and could NOT convert your traffic it means 2 things. I don't know what I am doing or your traffic is truly shit, but it's a gain anyway because I've learned through "A" traffic source how to optimize my Network the best I could.
Meaning, I got my network up and rolling and CAN make mistakes as you learn how to run a network, rather then making critical network mistakes with optimal traffic. In short, it's worth the investment to buy your traffic as I highly suggest you use that pitch when threads like these come about.
Anyway, for some reason I feel compelled to help people in this forum seeing so many struggle and thinking of starting a project/thread where I take an average webmaster here, hold his hand and walk him through a proven (basic) marketing method as he then updates his progress and positive targeted traffic results.
The problem? The correct tools and network would cost a minimum of $2500 as this would wipe out 90% of the average webmasters here.

Good points. Whenever I see a post titled "I bought great traffic from blah" I know right off the top of my head they are making that thread to help out a brother. Nobody wants other buyers buying the same traffic they buy if they are making money off it. So yeah happy buyers never post only unhappy ones post.
I get probably on average 10 icqs a day and maybe 3 to 5 phone calls from new potential buyers. I turn them all away except guys who own their own programs and know what they are doing. I am 95% sold out and have been for a long time. When a new buyer makes a order his order takes traffic away from current buyers. I sell everything I have and have been for some time. Sometimes I will get a flood of popunders then I will solicit buyers but I do that so I have many buyers for that traffic so if one stops buying all of it is still sold to other buyers.
People tell me all the time that they need 100k a day of US traffic. My reply is always the same: If you can find a broker with 100k a day of unsold US traffic laying around, what does that tell you? If it was decent traffic and priced good it would not be laying around unsold.
I see some brokers coming in every thread that has the word traffic in it spamming thier shit. Make a thread that blahs traffic sucks and man they will post away in that thread. What does that tell you?
