I agree that buyers take their chance when purchasing a spot. Sometimes it does well and other times it may not be a good ROI, which is why a buyer should always do a short term purchase first of maybe one month just to test it and then buy a longer term if it seems good. I'd also like to point out that DP is a horrible place to buy ad spots, as there are far too many sellers removing banners and links before the time is up. I've lost track of the amount of times some douchebag has removed my ad a few days after taking my money. It's sickening that people are that sleazy, especially when you consider they're actually screwing themselves, since I usually buy very long term spots from good sellers, so that's long term money they're losing just for a few short term dollars. It's very much "buyer beware" around here...
i do agree what u say so i alway will give my email to they in case they need to make any changes and it better to state clear when the ad spot will expire before payment done ,like whatyou say there are risk to deal directly so to prevent it you may consider buy ad spot from third party e.g bidvertise ,adbrite ...but some will prefer to deal directly so it depend on the buyer
