here on TER for reviews.  After 7 years, no reviews still means no see.

I have been messing around with backpage a little myself lately. You really need to use your "spider" senses. Although phone number and reverse photo search are powerful tools, unfortunately, they will only identify obvious problems. Not getting hits on tineye doesn't mean wysiwyg, so you have to use your judgement on a case by case basis.

If the girl consistently posts over few months and across multiple sites with consistent phone number and photos, it usually rules out LE (again that might not be always true). Their is always the B&S concern, but in my opinion, your main concern would be lackluster performance if there is no history of reviews to fall back on. Unfortunately, this is especially true with the younger providers who think that their looks (most of the time average at best) and their youth is all they need and they can just lie there like a dead fish while you do your business and expext you to be out of there in 20 minutes even if you booked an hour. I would be willing to bet my left nut (which has already been destroyed by Roxanne Dupri, but that's a different story!) that in 90% of the cases you will get an underperformer/rusher/upseller, especially with the highly discounted rates. Doesn't mean that there are no great new/amateur gals who advertise on BP, but you will need to do a lot of rough stone sorting to get to those gems.

I'm no expert myself, and have only limited experience with BP, so you might want to take my opinion with a grain of salt.

Happy hunting! And if you find one of those gems, please share with us!

if she has no reviews somewhere, the chances of me seeing her are next to nothing.  It just ain't worth taking the chance in my opinion.  There are plenty of really hot ladies out there with stellar reviews to choose from.

Yeah, I know we see some really hot-looking babes on places like backpage and others, but......if you can't find out anything else about them, you have to decide, WITH THE BIG HEAD, is she worth the risk?  Me, I'm not a TOFTT guy, although I have been severely tempted at times.  I have read reviews of girls that looked hot, but the reality of her was not close to her pics, the service was nowhere near what was promised, etc.  What amazes me is that some girls will say the have TER reviews and encourage you to read them, and their reviews actually suck!  What are they thinking?  Who knows?

Apprecite the feedback, just to clarify I'm not looking for, nor do I expect to find some great 9/9.  With the combinations of no reviews and only reading horror stories on the boards I was curious if there are a reasonable amount of "legit" ladies on there (close to picture, get what you agree on) so it's worth the time of
Looking.

I use Backpage all the time. I always check the phone # for reviews here on TER. A lot of regular ladies on TER use backpage as well. If a lady does not have reviews here, I usually just pass her up, unless I see consistant posts and feel comfortable that she is for real. Sometimes I will TOFTT and it has usually worked out pretty good for me. I have also seen a few ladies that had a few good reviews on TER and then I did not have such a great experience, so you never really know. But if someone on BP grabs my attention, I will certainly keep my eye on them. Sometimes I check reviews on Escorts.com, but I am not a member there. So my best experiences are with well reviewed ladies from TER, but I will take a shot sometimes. Just have to be careful and not be afraid to walk away if things dont look right. Good luck!

Definitely check out BP. I'm new at going about things this way... hobbying so to speak, and by the way... lovin' every minute of it. I used to check out CL before they took it down but never dialed for dollars from there, always BP. I'm probably 7 out of 10 actual gal in pic, and the other 3 were very similar or even hotter so although I agree it sucks to get surprised at the door, my surprises were always good ones. I don't even call her out on the pics in a bad way, just mention I'm aware of it and move on from there... maybe they even try a bit harder to please as a result. One time the gal at the door was someone I'd already repeated with a few times and liked a lot so it was cool.

Always donated 150 half, 200 hour so certainly fair there... One gal tried to hit me at 200 half, and since I don't discuss anything but time and location via telephone whether or not her rate is listed, I told her 150 was my rate and here I am so what do you think... that worked out just fine at my rate!

Another gent mentioned above that you need to use your "spidey sence"... well put, I always go for thin spinners in their early to mid twenties, prefer caucasion... maybe a hot light skinned spanish lady, but find that college aged white gals never have attitude and always work out well so far. I go through the pics on BP and more go for the "type" of gal I like, that way if I meet at the door and it's someone different they've been close to the pic and so for me I'm OK with it. If someone way out of range was opening the door I would really have no trouble bailing out.

Check out my reviews, all the gals are from the same mold and similar to their ad pics if not better... let me know how it goes and safe hobbying to you my friend!

I use BP ads' all the time pretty much, and they're fine. I've seen a providers with no reviews when I first saw them, and all were terrible except for one.

Also look at prices. I pass on the really cheap girls becuase they just seem dirty to me.  

65.00 for 15mins
100.00 for 30,
150 for 160 HUH? They guy working at the gas station making 8.50 an hour can pull that.

I'm new to this but I've found some very good providers at a fair price. Don't go for the ultra glossy polished pics, those are usually fake. #xxxxx, is my favorite gal.
