It seems like some clarification needs to be made here. As I am right smack in the middle fo this. Once upon a time.....
Ashaw had posted a request in the chatroom that he was looking for traffic domains. I owned TrueQuotes.net and it was receiving 1-3 visitors per day parked at ND. I had some great keywords which was making $3.24/click with a high of $3.80. So in 5 days it had made me $16.20 as can be seen in

Day 1
I sold the names clearly telling him that I wouldn't consider these much of 'traficc names' since I only have the stats for 5 days of which 2 of the days had no visitors. I also said that I would gaurantee the current stats for 2 weeks, meaning since they were so minimal getting 0-3 guess wereever they were coming from would continue. The gaurantee was simply that the name is not going to go flat in 2 weeks. My experience with domain names is that if it's geting something, they don't just die out. So anyways, I told him I need some quick cash to get someone to help me out with the site I'm working on now, SmartInvestment.org and to help me with the Mambo. He agreed. In later conversations I told him not to expect to get deals like this again and it's only because I'm in a bind here because normal industry sale is 10-24X monthly profit. He said ok.
Day 2
Ashaw emails me telling me the stats are only .10 per click and asking me what's going on. I tell him ND takes 48 hours to resolve actual clicks. etc. Just.
Day 3
He emails me saying Wow! The name is getting a huge amount of traffic and clicks. And I'm like damn, how so. Another lost for me. While in the chat room he started quoting stats to folks and day were WAY higher then the 0-3 visitors I was getitng. I assumned nothing of it. Later that day I see him post an auction selling the name. Before that he had asked me if I thought he should have posted the name for sell. I told him no because the stats are too young to try to sell it to someone. Wait and see where the traffic is coming from. I told him to take it off ND for the weekend and park it with someone where he can get stats. It's that day that I saw people starting questioning the stats he had posted because they were a little off.
Day 4
Today Scorp ask me if I had sold the name to Ashaw I told him yes. I asked him why, And then I was told that I could post the link to the stats to them here since members were raising questions to his stats.
I'm not sure what necessarily happened or is happening, but something is fishy. I was extremely clear when I sold the name that traffic was not verifiable and extremly low, only the CTR made it decent. The only place I could imagine traffic to have been coming from was my Sedo listings where I also have TrueQuotes.net and my other names in the Description area for all my names. I sold the name under no pretence but it seems that it is being offered with some misinterpretation. My stats are as I said they were and I hope this little blurb can help shed some light on this.
