With all other things being equal, you should *theoretically* expect better sales on the niche traffic.

However, that would be grossly oversimplifying things. Here are a number of factors you need to take into consideration: Hun doesn't skime/trade, thus his surfers will be more likely to trust an ad. Most sites you'd buy traffic from (perhaps as a mix through a broker) will skim pretty hard, thus making the traffic you get more frustrated and much less inclined to whipping out the plastic. Furthermore, the amount of sales would also depend on sponsor, tour quality, gallery layout, content used, etc., just to name a few. Not all traffic is created equal, as aren't all galleries. Some type of gallery will do better on the Hun, some will do better on niche traffic. To sum it all up, there's no easy way to analyze this, so a mere guesstimate would be the closest you'd come to any half-decent conclusion. My personal opinion, based on experience, would be that the one getting traffic from the Hun will outsell the one getting niche traffic. But don't take my word for it.
