Depends on who's buying.  The stat that's thrown around a lot is first time writers CAN sell a spec for 6 figures.

First time writers usually get WGA minimums.  The stories of big paydays are notable because they aren't the norm.

If it's not a WGA franchised company, then you might be offered anything.  In many cases, nothing.
