    Industry rids itself of another terrible short sighted uneducated businessman ;)

    I'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.

                I knew it would sell for more than EpicCash was worth.

                  I'm not familiar at all with the revenue of a general (not niche) site like that but $37k seems very low for a site of that size/age

                    Shap...don't even go there ;-)

                    We made a deal, while we discuss how to transfer the money and how to setup the protocol to move the owership (I normally don't use epass that much, so I had to find out how add the funds to my account).
                    He sends me an icq while we're still discussing the transfer: Sorry bud, the site has just been sold, they paid me already...

                    And then he tells me that I shouldn't be bothered to much over this inconvenient situation...

                    Now I go fuck myself....sideways...
                    for being such a prick that I don't understand his situation..

                        That right there is the reason you are where you are and he is selling his last few years of work for $37k.

                                I'm surprised it only went for $37k. Just 3 sales a day for a year and its paid for.

                                        I thought that site/network had much bigger traffic and sales numbers.

                                        Hell even "I" could afford that TGP.

                                          Yeah you're right....look at the horrible job that the Nasty Dollars crew has done with sites like Sublime Directory and Mad Thumbs

                                                hehe na it would take a good bit to get me to sell right now..but yea never know. I plan to finish of my goals of getting things I want to get done before I'd ever sell out.

                                                lol but then again I'm sure you know how much I hate adding new galleries

He could have got a lot more than what he ended up with and put the site in the hands of people that really know what they're doing.

That guy went from asking $500,000 to $20,000 in 4 days LOL. I'm not sure which was worse. The lying Marc Perrins? Or 10 minutes is too long for him to wait Crysty. What do you think Pierre?

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.
