Has there ever been a time in your life where you wished you could have access to a photo of something, but were unable to for some reason? Perhaps you couldn’t travel to see the new car you’re thinking of buying on eBay (need to see how big that fender dent really is?), or maybe you don’t feel comfortable wandering in to your competition’s store to check out their stock? Either way, GoSee4Me might be able to help you out. This site is devoted to matching up photo requests with amateur photographers looking to earn some easy cash.
Essentially, you’re paying these photographers to snap a photo of something for you that you otherwise would be unable to see. To use GoSee4Me, you’ll need to register for an account (either to submit a photo request or to put in a bid to take a photo). If you want to procure a certain shot, click on the “Request Photo” tab under your account and give the most detailed description that you can of the object or location (certain angles, hours, etc). Then, specify when you wish to close the bidding and by when you need the photo. GoSee4Me will then match up your request (by email) with registered photographers in the vicinity, who will in turn bid on your offer. When you choose a bidder, you’ll pay them only when they have taken and uploaded their shot. All transactions are done on-site via major credit card or PayPal.

Some Questions About GoSee4Me.com
How does GoSee4Me guarantee that its photographers will indeed by paid? Does it utilize an evaluation system like eBay? GoSee4Me receives US $15 from any photo valued under $100; this seems relatively high; what if the price of a certain photo is only valued at $40? If GoSee4Me receives a 15% of any photo over $100 as they claim, this means that most photos will probably be offered up at over this amount, which seems expensive; how many people will actually be willing to shell out potentially several hundred dollars for a clandestine photo?
