    and it seems like the online market is so saturated that people are willing to sell stuff for virtually nothing just to make money.

    And plr isn't the only thing, look at pay per click and forum signatures. People are willing to place advertisements on their websites even if they only pay $.01!

    I really think publishers on the internet need to get together and form a union of some sort, where we just say no so that we too can have a fixed "minimum wage," and those publishers who are not willing to abide should be shunned using a number of methods. Otherwise advertisers will just continue to use and abuse us.

    Sure, this should be done....
    But the main problem is "How to initiate that."
    There are many who offer cheap service with cheap rates. You can't check them.

    It isn't that webmasters are hurting for cash. The real reason you see a lot of people trying for $3 dollar payouts is because they are children. A 7 years back there wasn't much kids cruising the net.

    if you are from a poor country where you can live very well with 100$ per month, $10 is a big sum

    Ok, that fine. I am agree with that. But there must be some healthy competition. This is not the way to offer cheap rate, and leave "a bad headache" for others.

    It's not really a big deal though (LOL, the guy's banned right now anyway). Quality always beats cheap pricing, and people who are willing to sacrifice quality for price aren't people you want to deal with anyway. Just my 2 cents. Plus, we need people doing cheap labor to make some things affordable on the net.

    I don't think that the online market is too saturated in most areas.... most people just simply don't know how to market their products effectively. In some cases, people don't even care about what they sell, they just want something to sell. This is a terrible practice and results in people giving up products for near nothing just to see a few bucks in their paypal account.

    I personally would never buy something from someone who was selling it so cheap that it seemed to good to be true. In most cases... it is.

    Online market is really kool and there are and will always have opportunities to earn loads of cash. But one have to start with $1 material's first and you would surely find the 100$ stuff.
