Huge profit margins for buyalink.net

These are the prices buyalink.net promises if you sell links through them:

Link from a PR 3 page - $2.50
Link from a PR 4 page - $5
Link from a PR 5 page - $15
Link from a PR 6 page - $40
Link from a PR 7 page - $75
Link from a PR 8 page - $150
It must be noted that only pages with fewer than 10 links to external sites are eligible for the program. Still, this pricing system (presumably monthly prices) is pretty weird. The keywords in question have to be considered: a PR 5 site about deciduous forest habitats is probably not worth as much as a PR 5 site about web hosting. Traffic must also be considered along with link placement. I'd rather have my ad at the top of the top of a busy page then at the bottom of an unpopular page.

For the curious, if you buy a link through buyalink.net they charge double the prices listed above. A 100% markup is pretty good, hence the title of this post. I'm testing out this service - I submitted one of my sites to be added to their database of link sellers. I'll let you know if they bring any link buyers my way.
