ONLINE-ADS>> Cost per conversion

Richard wrote about Virtual Vineyards' cost per conversion in the last
web ads installment (#8) as taken from a panel with Robert Olson of
Virtyal Vineyards.

"Virtual Vineyards is able to track a person from when they
click on the creative to when they complete the order. This
ability has given them great insight into what it costs to
convert a prospect into a customer. And moreover, how to
effectively spend the little ad dollars that they do.

A very revealing trend that emerged from their analysis is
that for Virtual Vineyards, **the cost to convert a prospect
to a customer is significantly lower on low CPM buys than
high CPM buys. So much for targeting**"

My question is of the starred quote above. How significant was the
difference in conversion rates and CPM's. Perhaps someone from Virtual
Vineyards is out there.
