Instagram Question

Hey all,

So I have the opportunity to purchase an Instagram account that I intend to sell T-shirts to using Teespring or a similar platform.

Account A has 65k followers and roughly 1-2k likes per picture. few comments. price is $4,500

Account B has 22k followers and roughly 500-1500 likes per picture. More comments then Account A but still not that many....
Price is $10,000

Both accounts are in the car niche and I intend on selling car related t-shirts too. Im wondering if these are good deals and if selling shirts would be a good way of monetizing these accounts...

Any and all information is appreciated.

    As long as you realize, with that amount of followers and likes, these are fake accounts.

      Not true.

      And why don't you just go the organic route and build your own with services like Instagram Marketing Service: GrowYourGram?

    yeah the quality of the followers and asking how the list was built would be my first two questions..

    Right now I am able to add 5000 users a month to my instagram accounts at only $9.95 per account/per month using instagress so I wouldn't want to pay those amounts myself but you are in a good niche. There are lots of car and truck accounts and most of them are selling teespring teeshirts and most have winning teespring campaigns. I just couldn't tell you if these people are also advertising their tee shirts elsewhere like on facebook. But the car niche is very hot right now.

    I would recommend creating an account just to follow the other car accounts only. Then in your photo feed you will see them giving shoutouts to other car accounts who you should also follow. Then in your photo feed you can see what they are all doing with their accounts and the kinds of products they promote themselves or for others who pay for promos.

    I definetely wouldn't pay 10k for 22k followers when I can get that easily in about 4 months on instagress for about $40.

    Can you tell me where you are finding these instagram accounts that are for sale???
