Time lag in clearing sold items

SpeedIt's a bit worrying, you know, how there's potential to make some good sales, but the real problem is how it takes forever to get paid. Quite a few folks have mentioned that it can take up to 3 months to get their bills sorted out, and during that time, their sold stuff is out there being used and shown off without showing up on their account. And even when the bill finally gets sent, it's another 2-3 months before they actually get their money. It's a real letdown, especially when you see how other places that sell photos handle things way quicker.
