Listed as premium $149 and I just got $2.00. This is not an everyday easy to obtain clip. It should not be discounted.

Is it on Shutterstock? You could be 45 cents for it there.
They don't care how scarce a video is anymore.

I was surprising that it was here on P5 posted as sold today. P5 finally realized the ridiculous low pricing hurts the contributor and agency. If Momma SS will do the same. You are correct, the scarcity or quality means nothing anymore.

P5 and all other agencies are going down the drain. Can't make a living from stock anymore.

"This happens because, one way or another, they’re taking advantage of us. At first, after the platform’s sale to people solely interested in profit, who aimed to turn Pοnd5 into a new ,and worst shutterstock, they introduced subscriptions that offered buyers the ability to purchase many videos for a low price, followed by dynamic pricing, which gives them the power to adjust prices as they please, always under the pretense of helping our sales. If you ask me, it’s not worth engaging with them. They unilaterally redefine the terms of the agreement." The downfall of the business will be certain and fair, and adherence to each new regulation now rests solely on the artist’s judgment...

It is a Shatter Stock crime. My Premium videos they sale for HD $119 USD, 4K for $ 139 USD. By in invoice price HD $ 39 , 4K 60. Standard videos in invoice HD $ 16 USD on market sale for minimum $39 USD. Then you are log in to pond5 site you can see minimum fake price. Same then visit pond5 from your PC. Criminal use cookies and show to you fake price. Want to check? You can use a proxy and google or alternative browsers. Best way to destroy monopoly of criminals. And next step legal persecution.

What a FRAUD this industry became, once they had our clips on their servers it was game over and for those of you who have tested using a VPN, proxy or alternative browsers.....you know the pricing SCAM they've been doing for years and how they lied to me when I figured it out, they told me it's "tech problem" on my end that's creating an illusion of prices being different on each browser.
They had me thinking for a minute and then I opened up multiple other marketplace sites like Ebay on the same browsers and tested with VPN and it was the same price across the board. A $100 item on Ebay was the same $100 on all browsers and when I turned on my VPN but not with P5.

I had 11 sales in Feb. on SS, for an earnings of $2.79. That's why I'm out. It's insulting. Maybe I'm just not adapting to the new realities like shooting vertical for tictok, etc.
