My bad, I ment to give props to PicsMonster.... We have done a link exchange for a while! Dont think I have ever heard of Pichunter, and I have already lost respect for him because he is one of those sites that wants "donations" for special members area's ...... Jeeeeez buddy, I offer all the same search features and good galleries etc (movie galleries, not pic ones) as you and I would never had the oddassity to attempt to ask for donations

Okay, well... I'm sure he is a good guy. Never said he wasn't. Really isn't the point. But in my experience, if something sounds fishy, it usually is. I personally wouldn't find myself involved in a deal that didn't sound quite right without further details to make me comfortable with the buy.... but that's just me.

Obviously he's not interested in disclosing any more than just being sick of it, which is certainly his choice, but my guess is that he really doesn't want to sell it, or he would've taken the steps necessary to follow through.

If the whole thing was to see what kind of serious responses he'd get from a post like this, I'd say he got as much as he put into it. And I'll still swap him my ol' leakin' waterjug fer it.

But don't come down on me for pointing out some obligatory caution. He might be the greatest guy on Earth... but I don't know him. I don't know the first thing about him, and since he was the one that wanted the whole thing to be public from the very first post:
Quote:

Place your offers here, please don't ICQ me your offers, I want this to be public.
...I'm just helping bring the WHOLE deal public. If the actual offers are to be publicly serious, and not just promises of leakin' waterjugs, then let's see some public honesty from the seller. Till then, I got a whole closet full of leakin' waterjugs.

That's all I got... nothin' personal... just business.

Good luck with it gotys.

1) Why does everyone here care SO much whether someone had a warez site b4? It's not like he actually had files! No one does these days!!!

2) If I were making $10k a month I would NEVER sell my site!!! EVER!

3) Pichunter has more rules then the fuckin olympics to get posted on!!!

4) I dunno what kinda paysite requires $60,000 investment.... That is crazzzy.!!

My :2 cents:

Shaggy 02-12-2002 03:06 PM

10k will put you under in three months. You could start a paysite with that but it wouldn't be successful.

Are you guys aware of the content costs of running one? You need at least $3000/month in content alone if you plan on retaining anyone.

10k would last you 2 months after design and 2 months of content. Then what?

You better have enough members by that point to pay your content. Which you probably won't. So you better at least have 6 months of content and expenses paid before even considering opening one.

Then there is promotion to think about. Better have good promotion at the begginning to get those webmasters fast.

10k isn't shit. Anyone that thinks they can successfully start a paysite with that is an idiot.

Don't worry pichunter, I get the feeling that most of the guys who posted here have topsites pushing 500 hits a day and think they are the whip.

Though if I were you, I would hang onto your site to promote your paysite with. Keep growing your site while saving up or finding alternative financing.

boneprone 02-12-2002 03:14 PM

huh?

Shaggy, assuming he makes 10k a month you are making it sound as if this 10k is all he has to work with on this paysite EVER! Why? He gets payed monthly.

If he's making 10k a month it would be enough.
You said yourself you'd need at least 3k a month for the content.

Well he's not making 10 k a year, its 10 ka month.

You said 10 k doesnt go very far? How far are you thinking he needs to take it? You say 10k would last 2 months? Ok fine.
He makes 20k in 2 months.

Its not like this 10 k has to last him all fucking year, and thats all he can ever put into this project like you are making it sound, the 10k only has to last just 4 weeks.

Think before you post.

Should be enough to at least get him started.
Once he uses the 10 k, 4 weeks later he'll have another 10k to fuel the project further. Are you forgeting that?

And once his site is up and running dont you think IT will make some $$, or are you forgetting that also?

Having a tgp that makes 10k profit a month is a perfect fueling source to have the funding to start a paysite.
You are the one that is Full of SHIT!

boneprone 02-12-2002 03:20 PM

The question at hand should be is he making 10k a month and if so how, with what programs, and he needs to proove it.

Simple as that.

But to say he has to sell this to make a paysite with 60k is BS.
If you are making 10k a month the security of having this money coming in every month is far more valuable than selling it for just 60k.

Why sell it if you are making 10k a month?

You are wrong shaggy, you should think it over a bit.

Shaggy 02-12-2002 03:33 PM

I was replying to some of the others that said they could easily start a paysite with 10k. Which you can't.

Even though he says he makes 10k a month. I'm sure he has to live off of that income also. Plus pay taxes. Maybe he has a house payment and kids and other shit.

So what if he only has a 2-3k to work with after that. Not a very big comfort zone to start a paysite. Especially when you are loosing money for the first few months.

I hear what your saying boneprone. If I were him, I would save up 10k to start it for the first 3 months, and continue to save to support it in the 4,5,6 months. After that if he has played his cards right. He shoud have a site that will support itself and can start showing a profit.

Plus he gets to keep pichunter and feed his paysite.

ok

gotys 02-12-2002 05:01 PM

I don't understand why you guys have to search for reasons? Does it matter? Jesus Christ, I am selling a 500k/day site here, what else do you need to know? It's my fucking business why I want to sell it, I gave you a reason , and if you don't take that reason as valuable, than go fuck yourself.

Be proffessional for God's sake. :feels-hot

boneprone 02-12-2002 05:04 PM

TheFLY 02-12-2002 05:49 PM

I've been trading w/ the pichunter webmaster for a long time -- I traded over 10,000 productive visitors with him today! Whoever buys this site better take good care of it!

I've been in his place before -- I don't see why there's so much skepticism about this sale -- he can do whatever the fuck he wants to do with is time, energy, and money... Why do you think Hotmail sold out to Microsoft!? I'm not sure how much time he invests in this site -- but last I talked to him he said he has busted ass on Pichunter to get it to where it is today -- I believe him... the site has been around for a while...

No doubt he probably is tired of it -- I shut down TheFLY A-Z three years ago after it became an annoying chore -- I read somewhere that TheHun said the same thing about reviewing galleries... at dinner once Platinum Dave told me he was glad not to have to do trades anymore... It gets old... If he wants to try his hand at something new -- I wish him the best of luck...

As for the donation concept -- I don't see why it can't work... As long as Paypal doesn't go under -- I think we could see more donation based porn sites...

buster 02-12-2002 05:55 PM

i have to sorta agree with shaggy 10 grand aint shit every one around here acts like 10k is alot of money i dont know about you but my pay site costs 3,300 a month to run and i would like to make 2000 a week so after taxes i can take home $1500. a week so right there it cost me over $11,000 a month to run a site .

Za Ha 02-12-2002 06:15 PM

If $10,000 USD is not enough per month for a paysite then you are managing your cash wrong.

Where's Aaron when you need him. Post your opinion...

Za Ha 02-12-2002 06:18 PM

As for the price:

It is good! Even great.

I have know gotys a long time ago (before he had this nickname...) and his scripts are top of the line!! The best that can be made! His traffic is top notch too... to galleries at least... 10k is np...

I don't like the donation idea but it might work.

If it makes $10,000 a month then it is a steal for $60 grand. I would buy it but when you convert 1:2000+ you dont really have cash:Oh crap

I'll take that chalange with only $5K and we'll see what it does 3-4 months from now. I'll keep you informed. Far as I'm concerned pic paysites are easy as shit to set up and cheap as dirt to run, but I guess I'll know a few months from now if I need to be eating my words or if you'll all be kissinmy ass again.

FreeOnes 02-12-2002 06:23 PM

I think everybody would buy your site for $60k if you can prove that you make a profit of $10k per month for at least the last 6 months. I'm only afraid you can't prove it.....

I even don't understand why you need to invest in a pay site $60k if you already have Over 300,000 galleries for donating members of your current site. Explain this to me as I'm really confused.

#100 post, you won a dvd player !

quiet 02-13-2002 03:35 AM

10K to start a pay site. hmm. it can be done (i started with much less). the beauty (and the beast) of a paysite is that is scales beautifully. members are looking for unique, quality content, and a very fast site. it doesn't matter if you have 10 members, or 10K members.

it's a bit of a vicious cycle. if you don't have the capital to buy content (for retention), advertising (for exposure) and bw/hardware (to keep things running fast and smooth) - it's very difficult to grow.

for example, I now spend 65-70K US/month on expenses. That's 2300/day. 10K would last me 4 days. of course, i also pull in 210K/month total revenue.

my point is simply this: to optimize the profitablity of a paysite, it should be scaled up as far as possible. If you have great content, you only need to pay for it once, whether 1 member views it, or 10K members view it (excluding bw/hardware costs, which are much better than they were a couple of years ago).

blah, blah, nevermind ;)

Bake 02-13-2002 05:02 AM

It truely amazes me the lack of real buisness sence you people dispaly on this bbs ,here is a good product that must be worth someting ? His traffic cant be to bad I know I have sold Lightspeed from his site. but why he is really selling it Im not sure, Needing 60k for a pay site is BS you can build 15 for that and a nice traffic pump would be handy ? I would like a private chat with you if you like hit my ICQ.

MikeEP 02-13-2002 08:05 AM

I don't mean to be disrespectful or anything, but weren't you just posting on AWI a few months back complaining that you can't make any money from your site, regardless of the traffic, and thus asking for help? It was pretty recent.

I'm curious how you went from (what was it a few months back) $3 a day?... to 10k a month.

60k isn't pocket change to most people. If you have hard numbers to back this up, with a decent history, im sure there would be no problem getting buyers for that price.

gotys 02-13-2002 09:53 AM

To all people that supported me in this threat so far.

Za Ha, TheFly and other good guys, thank you for your supporrt, I trully appreciate it.


To others: Yes I do have documents to back the $10k/month profits, and I will provide if needed.
