Twisty:

The problem is that we've decided to close. We opened thinking we'd have VISA access right away... we didn't. We also just weren't getting any sales.

We had posted some pics to the usenet and we got about 1000 hits in 2 weeks from doing so. We also posted to appropriate newsgroups (3 or 4 of the active ones that were on topic) and not in a blanket post to alt.set.*. We got 10 sales at 9.99 each out of that deal. I've no clue if those are good numbers or not. But fact is I'm not doing this for $50 of profit a month. I'm not doing it for $500 a month. I would do it for $4000 a month. But $4000 a month seems very far fetched given the numbers above. We'd have to have multi-thousands of hits to get $4000 a month.

So.... we're closing. And the VISA app remains in limbo. I just find it a bit scammy that they won't refund the money after it's beet twice as long as they said it would be for the application to go through. I also found it scammy that they refused to tell me the date that I could get the $$ back if VISA still had not responded to the application.
