Sacrificing Sales

I'm not looking to start a fire here. I just have a few questions cause the start of this post and my untrusting nature has me thinking something is fishy. The whole site is the same niche yet your site converts better then the others with just 1 thumb? Now I understand he/she may not want to over saturate their site with your content but I would think offering a just a little more then 1 thumb would not hurt. Why offer just one thumb? Could this be the target thumb for stolen creditcards. How long has he been converting? You mention rebills. Have you seen any chargebacks from him?
Sorry have to edit this. My other thoughts are he needs more vids now then pics. To me that means most of his traffic is looking for vids, so he does the correct thing and narrows down his traffic for pics. Yet he is still converting on the pics with just one thumb. I take it that its a decent amount or else you would not have even posted here. So once again he is sending really targeted traffic to a really hard sale niche, which he is narrowing down even more so to the pics of which your site is the best convertor. I don't know I understand this is how it's supposed to work but something seems strange. I'm not trying to dump on your site but seriously what makes your site better then the rest he has on the site that your converts better? From what I saw on your site it's one girl (correct me if I'm wrong I did not look at it for over 1 minute) but I would think sites with more girls would convert better or at least just as much with such a niche.

Why would that even cross your mind based on the info Simon posted?
