So where are most of your sales?

Do you rely on your Storefront or do you build, paint and sell on the AH?

If the later do you sell them occasionally or do you have a constant supply of various cars going through?

I have my logo and designs storefront full, only have two of my many tunes list (maybe I should add some more), but I'm finding the storefront is so swamped now you rarely get seen unless your high on the sales numbers or ratings.

As to my AH, I have 20+ cars with tunes and paints more or less constantly on it.

the problem is the AH takes so long to use and scroll through.
With the SF I can search for a car and see what the most popular tunes/designs are, and more importantly I can scroll through quicker.

What seems to fill up the AH most is people selling rubbish for too much money.
Plus if I dont like the tune on an AH car I lose it for ever, whereas with the SF I can replace and apply it again later if i like.

sidaorb, I was wondering the same thing...

I've auctioned a couple of cars, but nothing in great numbers...

My storefront is sort of half full of very basic vinyl groups/designs that I have uploaded over the past few weeks, a couple of extra bits here and there added as I find them on my cars. All are relatively inexpensive. Week 1 was slow, week 2 was 6k credits, week3 was 18k, week 4 35k and I am currently on 55k for this week (sunday>sunday.) Its not a bad stream of money, though I have a car I have been working on for weeks that I'd really like to sell as a whole... I am not sure how well it'll do on the AH/ whether to put it up in parts on my storefront.

We shall see...

I've had a clear out of cars in the auction house but haven't bought anything there, there is less money but a constant trickle from my designs and vinyls.
