Backpage - Worth it?

Hi Guys,

I'd like to hear your thoughts on backpage?

Is it worth it?
Are the providers real or am I going to come up against LE, BSC, NCNS situations?

If you use backpage what do you do to limit your risks of a bad time?

I'm only thinking of using BP because the donations are usually lower and I can't break into the k-girl scene and I'm not as well off as most you.

Thanks all.

I have no idea what your budget is but there are a lot of really fun and well reviewed ladies here.  I'd save up a few extra bucks and I'd bet you could find someone in the 350/400 range that you'd have a great time with. Yes it will take a bit of planning and some research on your end but the trade off is your not potentially going to waste money or walk yourself into a shady incall or situation.  

I think backpage only allows phone numbers and social media links. I looked at a couple links and they just went to kind of dead twitter or instagram . IMO that's kind of a red flag especially when so many of us have active social media presence.  Why wouldn't someone want to use a free and engaging network of people?  

Good luck in your search you could probably do some TER search for k-girl and your fee range.

Maybe one of the gentlemen has a few references for you.

Think with the head above your waist not the one below.

Are u looking on BP because you are looking for someone "cheap and quick"? Keep in mind that not everyone on there is "cheap" and the ones that are...well let's just say u get what u pay for. "Cheap" often comes with drugs, pimps, poor security, poor screening efforts, dirty incalls, and a host of other things. In the long run u will end up paying whether it be to get rid of an STD or bed bugs or drama or LE. One way or another that "cheap" levels out to what you would pay for a quality provider one way or another. Keep that in mind when doing your research. Again You get what you pay for so if it seems to good to be true...well.

So like she said above think we your correct head ;)

I would highly suggest that you take heed to what these 2 ladies are telling you.   Backpage is very sketchy and potentially dangerous if you don't know what you are doing.   I advertise on BP in the cities in which I am visiting.  However;  I make it clear that I am a low volume provider and very selective in whom I spend my time with.  Plus,  screening is required before I will schedule anyone.  Most ladies on backpage does not.  Sadly most ladies on BP are the same as your street walkers.  With that comes drug addicts,  pimps,  dirty incalls and etc.  As MaggieLynn suggested I would highly suggest you do your research on any lady that you would like to visit with.  Her reviews will help you decide if you want to spend time with her or not.  Good Luck and happy holidays.

Returned from NYC as some on here know.  I spent some time raking care of my Mom who has Altzheimers.  When I first got back I stayed at a 2 star hotel for a while and it became very obvious that there were a lot of girls working out of there

They were all bp girls and yes, as 1 of these girls eluded to many looked like they just came in off the street corner.

They charge 100 for half and 200 for a whole.  They don't screen...they go with their gut.  I had a chance to talk with a couple and approached them under the guise that I had a friend with an upscale service.  

Apparently, whether you do half or whole it is 1 and done...everything covered and no kissing.  So I asled, why would a guy pay 200 for a whole?  She said cuz they are stupid as she shrugged her shoulder.

Definitely a different playground!

Scary very scary. And sad. Most of them have pimps too so they do not get all that money. I have tried to save some of them but they are under a pretty good hold with the drugs and pimps. :(''. I unfortunately lost a good friend to the depths of Backpage. She ended up commiting suicide after testing positive for HiV. I found out a year later because I had separated myself from that type of lifestyle and she knew drugs were not my cup of tea so she did not hangout with me anymore. Sad very sad.

I do agree with what these ladies are talking about. Backpage is too risky for me. Yes I have used it in the past and have found some diamonds in the rough, but way too many disappointments. Not to mention your chances of getting busted by LE.

If you see a Twitter link that leads to a website or reviews or google the email address and a bunch of info comes up such as p411, etc then it's legit..... If its a 50 dollar Instagram model then that's a no lol not legit

I agree with Gypsy. A quick google search to check if a provider has an active social media presence or reviews will reveal whether or not a provider is safe to see.

I swear, as long as I've been in Le Hobby, have never looked at Backpage. Prompted by this thread, I scrolled through the Chicago area "offerings" which, for me, would be a good way to stave off shooting my load -- kind of an online coitus interruptus. The women I saw there looked like street traish right out of Central Casting. And the few cute ones were LE honey pots - I just googled two of them and got "Escort Sting" -- http://www.escortstings.com/630-337-8597. Good grief!

I'd rather cut my dick off rather than wade in that pile of vermin.

You may be victimized. Not all women who advertise on BP are, in fact, providers. They want your money. They may not give you ANY sex. AT ALL.

Beware.

Check out youwannaseeme.com if you're in Chicago and want a decent experience for very little money. Or just check out their reviews.

You get what you pay for. Indeed. You'll leave with an empty wallet but you'll be lucky if you don't have to call a friend to bail you out of jail.

BP is a good place to start for short notice,  better luck than with "Available Now" on EROS.  However, only if someone I know and or can also find on Twitter, TER, ect.  You also have to just ignore the large amount of stolen photos and or people that are posting in Chicago, LA, and NYNY for the same day with the same contacts and images.

People actually use "available now" on Eros! I have had little luck with it so quit logging on to Mark it on. I'm pretty much always available usually. Is there another site out there for posting to get same day appts?

We had a client tell us that he still peruses BP even though he
is a RS and P411 member and recommended that we try. There is quite a bit of weeding through potential clients that seem to be “game players”.  However,  we do get a few great RS clients here and there.  Personally, we really don’t like but have used it to get some attention at times. So there are some safe and reputable providers on there!

I never go there, but I understand why would ladies prefer Backpage for their advertising. Experienced men do their homework regardless of where they find your ad and that's kinda people you want.

I really appreciate the quality and positive support.

To all the great advice thus far.  A review is worth much more than the advertising site.  I have seen plenty of ladies on TER advertise on backpage over the years.  There are many great affordable experiences to be had from backpage as long as you find some decent reviews on TER.  Some people may not like hearing this but I have had and seen reviews of many great experiences for $300 or less.  That is usually my threshold, I have gone higher a few times and the quality of the experience didn't necessarily go up.  If you go to BP and don't look for reviews then you expose yourself to all the risks mentioned above and more.

How do you look for reviews from BP? Do you use thier phone number or thier name?

Thanks.

I usually just use phone numbers.  Also, I believe that BP started requiring a website or a blog which is why they all post Twitter or FB pages or similiar even if they go nowhere.

I wanted to thank you very much for your advice. Was able to see a great provider.
