LMAO. Not only is SoulSlayer stealing a % commission from vendors, but he's also stealing from vendors that never make it $10

Then it's just a scam... if you don't make it to $10, which you most likely won't. Does he keep that money?...

Huh.

So without doing much more research, has anyone worked here and not been paid fairly? How much do you suppose you deserve? Honestly curious and wiling to help pay for people who may have been cheated.

I've made about $25 now. The only reason the amount is off from what I've actually earned is because of transaction fees from Paypal.

Phantos · 09-13-2015

Nice! Also interesting. How much work did you have to do to earn $25? Could you break it down into a dollar/hour metric, like how a real-world business might? Or was it really based on several projects at a few dollars each?

Honestly I'm not sure; but the customs are pretty easy to make, though time consuming which I guess makes it a lower ratio if it's dollar/hour. I have quite a few things up, so I guess you could say it's several items at a few dollars since each has been purchased at least once.

That's very common for online retailers actually...

I am very interested in this topic because it's close to my heart. The profiting of other people's work is a serious crime, but artists making a profit on their own art? Using templates and other items the community has offered up, for free? That's, quite frankly, the greatest thing I've heard going on in a long time, as far as Graal Art goes.

But that bootstrap website, mmm. Something about it draws me in while simultaneously making me distrust it.

I understand what you mean, and I'll be honest- the only reason I signed up for this was that if you signed up as a vendor before release, you'd get 100% commission. My thought was that if it didn't work for me, I didn't have to use it, and if it did- great. If I could pay for my own website, a proper cv/portfolio site where I could also sell things and not go through someone, I would.

Hi I just read some of the posts here. I am really curious about this Graal Market. If one wants to be a vendor how does one apply? Is there any requirements such as fees or number of finished work needed to begin? And is it only head that we are allowed to sell, so no fanart or shields?

I also have a question. If a customer buys a head and it is rejected by GraalClassic does it get refunded or is that the customer's risk when buying?

I'm interested in doing some original work if things are the way I think it is.

Also, can anyone explain the paypal process? Like how does one make a paypal account? Is it safe?

This is BS. Something as simple as a custom getting sold to wear for this game. Anyone who falls for buying these things deserves to lose their money, same to anyone who falls for selling their trash on here.

Agreed, new players will get scammed by this site without knowing you can find free heads online.

One person only has to buy and use the head once before it's practically free online for everyone else. The whole system is flawed but whatever I guess. Not like I'm the one losing money.

I saw this on FB just now. I think it's damn interesting lol. I wonder how its gonna turn out to be.
https://graalmarket.com/
people can buy or sell their personal graphics on it.
the website is like a middleman process.

OR, go on youtube, get adsense, post youtube videos and make more money.

The website looks nice and runs smoothly.
All the proof I need for reliability.

You must be 2 years old.
