Newbie here going to take the plunge in Canada in a few weeks.

I have done a mind numbing amount of research and finally settled on someone who has been very well reviewed by TER members.

Then I struck up a relationship with someone on the Terb.ca site and he told me he only goes with recommendations from fellow Terb members and he referred me to a PO he really likes. She only sees limited clients and has no reviews or web site.

Would love to hear some feedback on what everyone thinks the best move for me would be.

I've only been at this about a year, and it seems like a no-brainer to me: stick with the well-reviewed ladies here on TER.
You could also pm a few of the reviewers of the lady and see what they have to say about her.  
Just my opinion, from a fellow newbie.

I am kind leaning that way but thanks for the reply.

You have done the research, and you should follow through with that. You have the tools at your disposal here to keep yourself from getting burned.
TOFTT when you have more experience.

I did the same thing, picked out two or three that had good rightups here, narrowed it down and went for it.  Your on the right track, Id say!

I've been at this over a year...  a dozen or so ladies.  A first date has a lot of risk, mainly that the lady will not deliver as promised.  Rip-offs, upsells, bait & switch, fake pictures (stolen or old)...    
Not only are you risking your donation but also the chance to have a good experience, and the opportunity that may not come along every day.  Yes, it pisses me off if I waste the opportunity.

TER VIP reviews are worth their weight in gold since they have safeguards others do not...  a well reviewed lady you pretty much know what you're getting.  

Are there good or even great ladies without reviews?  Yes.  But finding them is more difficult & risks per above.  Let the others take those risks TOFTT (Take One For The Team).  Later on, maybe you'll want to, but not to start.  I wish I'd known about TER...

Looks like my choice is clear. Thanks for the input just needed to hear some viewpoints and so far nobody has said I should stray from TER
