    jesus christ. 39,000+ hits, i havent read it but i wonder how many uniques he's got...

    with that kind of traffic, and if he had upward of say 1500+ unique hits a day, he's laughing to his paypal account [if done right].

    man, with the right site optimization and good back linking etc etc, with the number of hits this guy is getting, he could probably tweak things so that he gets a couple hundred bucks a day into his paypal, no exaggeration.

    With that sort of cash being pushed around, you'd think that he would've used Paypal! But still, what an ******** that vendor seems like!
