When searching for Instagram accounts with fewer than 10,000 followers, most of them turn out to be inflated. Not all of them are bots, but mass following is clearly present. Accounts with 9-10 thousand followers usually have about 5-6 thousand followings, and the sellers didn't even bother to unfollow before selling. The likes on the photos average around 60-70. I spent about 3 hours before I found a more or less decent profile with good statistics, a real audience, and growth potential. All the other accounts I saw before that were terrible and created solely for sale. The exchange could set stricter conditions instead of chasing after a large number of offers. I have no complaints about the deal; I paid a 5% commission since the seller refused to cover it. He transferred full rights to the account, the original email, and all login details to me. Only after that was the money transferred. I am now developing the purchased account, and there are no issues with it. Instagram hasn't imposed any blocks, the audience is real, but that's only because I managed to find a worthy account among the general flow of low-quality pages.
