Wow, $37k seems real low for a long established site... doesn't seem to have a shitload of traffic (perhaps 90-100k) but there are some quality sites in his trade list.
Industry rids itself of another terrible short sighted uneducated businessman ;)

Just because I've never built a car doesn't mean I don't know anything about the auto industry. I buy traffic from most of the "big boys" in the TGP game and I know whose traffic is quality and whose is garbage.Originally posted by TempestComing from the guy who has never run/grown a TGP... or at least one that was at least a marginal success.
The nastydollars/bangbros guy started in the TGP side of this business, and they also run some of the biggest and most successful affiliate programs.
So I was just saying that selling it to a program doesn't mean the death of a site.
This is the emotional attachment I was talking about, it's bad for business.Originally posted by TempestSome people like their successes to live on as a "testament" to something they've built.. But if he didn't care, then why didn't he go for the bigger money.
I'm guessing he didn't hold out for the big money for the reason you stated...he's having some sort of financial emergency and this was the only real "asset" he had to liquidate.
Also I think a real "testament" to your success would be if the person who bought if failed miserably so you could say the site was successful in the past only because of you.
If you sell to Pierre or Shap and they turn the site into twice what it was that's not a testament to your success, it's a testament to them being better than you at this game.

Only us dutch know each other. As pierre would tell you the others don't matter.Originally posted by Mike33Did you know him beforehand or do trades with him previous to this? I thought most of you big tgp guys knew each other and were pretty much friends or associates.
I know one thing this guy was definitely not dutch. Douche but not dutch

LOL. Anybody who wants to get paid fairly will try to sell to either Pierre or I. If they don't we will publicly humilate them so everyone else remembers not to not sell to us.Originally posted by onlymoviesShit, after reading this thread, i better not sell out behind Pierre's back! Oh my!

I could just picture something like this happening in the real world.
Pierre goes to buy his new Ferrari. He's all set. Signed the paperwork all that's left is to give the dealer the money order. Before doing so he excuses himself to use the washroom. The excitement has had an effect on his kidneys. He returns excited and ready to leave with his car. Only to be informed that while he was taking a piss somebody else came in and paid for the car.Comment

I'd be surprised if ah-me.com gets even half that much per day. They do have some nice trades though.Originally posted by rowandoesn't seem to have a shitload of traffic (perhaps 90-100k) but there are some quality sites in his trade list.Last edited by SomeCreep; 06-08-2006, 11:57 PM.Comment

I used to submit to Ah-me a couple of years ago...then I was given a submit account...Then all of a sudden I was banned for no reason..I didn't say anything because shit happens even though I KNEW that I did nothing wrong..Originally posted by shapBtw all joking aside I'd be livid if i were Pierre. This jackass agreed to do the deal. He told Pierre it's a done deal. Then as Pierre is discussing how he's going to pay the guy he says sorry i sold it to someone else who paid me faster than you (which was not even 14 minutes).
This guy is such a joker and people wonder why it sold for 37k. The guy was a class A douche bag that's why.
Then almost a year ago, he comes on here and says that the submit accounts that he did cut off were cheaters...Knowing that I WASN'T a cheater, I entered the thread and told him what happened and even gave him my submit account code...He said he would look into it and nothing happened..
I knew right then that if he's going to just accuse people of cheating with no proof, that he wasn't trustworthy...Even though I wasn't specifically called out, I still don't like being lumped in with cheaters and I took offense to his accusation....It's the principle of the thing..

Pont is Mr. smart business man is that someone else won the deal and owns the site(s). Talk is cheap. The BUYER put bucks on the table, you didn't. Plain and simple. The seller may have left money on the table by being eager to sell. To say hey give me a call when ya got an offer and I'll see if I want to top it didn't win you the biz here. So you come here and whineOriginally posted by shapI'm always amazed at how many bad business people there are in this industry. Dealing with some of our industry folk is worse than dealing with infants. Anyhow today we had one leave the biz. Crysty the former owner of Ah-me.
The two biggest buyers (Pierre and Myself) in the free site market contacted him to purchase his site. I tell him to not sell without contacting me first and I'll match any offer. Pierre obviously had his own conversation where he expressed his interest. Then out of the blue bam site is sold for $37,000 lol. I was willing to pay more and he never contacted me after he said he would. I found out the site was sold from Pierre. So playing dumb i email Crysty and he says it looks like he may do a deal at 37k. So I reply that i'll pay $38k and up to 40k. He then replies the same thing he did to pierre an hour earlier "a minute too late ,ah-me.com has been sold to Wildcash.com." LOL A minute too late? It's been sold for over an hour and he just told me it wasn't.
Anyhow Crysty you are a bad liar and an even worse businessman. Enjoy your new life.
. In the end who was the smart player?
You could say, I would have given you $100K. Doesn't mean shit after it is sold. If I'm an eager seller, I want to see cash and a solid offer.
My
is that calling the seller a dumb businessman cause he sold to someone else with a solid offer is a cheap shot at this point. At least that's my perspective outside looking in.

Algebra is the correct spelling. Not that I'm any fucking good at grammar or spelling, just noticed it.
I don't see this as a someone stiffing shap and pierre. I see this as someone knowing how to close a deal. I don't know the players. These are prolly people you know and party with???
In the end, not my biz, but a thread was started and that invites comment.Comment

Almost always is. Seems like a very eager seller. We don't know the whole story, prolly never will. Makes for good GFY drama.Originally posted by the Shempwhy the big hurry to sell the site/s?

Could speculate on the quick need for cash etc.
Hats off to the winners.Comment

Sublime used to be a gold mine...I made 10-30 sales on each gallery spot, bought also direct paysite spots there for $1500 I think. Now they cost $500 and even that is a lot.Originally posted by Lenny2Yeah you're right....look at the horrible job that the Nasty Dollars crew has done with sites like Sublime Directory and Mad Thumbs

I grabbed my calculator. Unless his toplist is fake (or the counts are clicks rather than loads) his traffic should be pretty close to what I quoted.Originally posted by SomeCreepI'd be surprised if ah-me.com gets even half that much per day. They do have some nice trades though.

Why was crystys.com taken down? I remember being unable to submit for months, then it came back, then poof it was gone.
$37k sounds very low, so it makes me think this guy needed a quick influx of cash very fast.Make bank by giving your surfers free pics every day and it costs you NOTHING! Use POTD Sponsors to find adult sponsors in more than 75 niches who offer a POTD feature!Comment

Well i can tell you that I bought a submit account once and it was good - nothing to rave about but I didn't renew and the guy kept on asking me every single month if i'd renew. Sounds like he was making feck all from the site IMOOriginally posted by HairToStayWhy was crystys.com taken down?
