I'd like to know some experiences of someone taking the jump and seeing a provider with no reviews and a higher price range?

an indie with no reviews for the reasons Lexi gave.  I will see an agency girl from an agency/booker I know with no reviews.  Its not about be worried about the quality of the experience as much as the possibility of an LE sting.  Every couple of months I TOFTT with an interesting-looking new agency girl FOTB.  Some winners, some losers, but mostly fun either way.  

Oh come on now. Lol you started some where and had a beginning I'm sure lol.

You are absolutely right about that.

I am a provider in this situation lol

SHE is a provider with no reviews, asking from the exact opposite perspective.  

In that case it sucks. Lol takes alot of time. I set my rate at 250 until I had a few reviews and went up to 300/hr. For me I am happy at that rate. If your higher rate is absolutely your minimum than don't budge but maybe think about adding specials or something for new client special. I used other avenues that didn't work out that great so I suggest sticking with TER. Make your presence known on the boards. Post your pic everyday and work on your website to provide lots of info for a great date with you.  

Not at your rates and without a single review to your credit.

I think it's highly unlikely LE would have an officer post as an indy to nab guys one at a time.  LE is far more likely to go after agencies.
I've seen at least one indy with no reviews in the past two years, but she was recommended by a friend who is totally reliable. She was great.

That would be guys with more money than brains. An educated hobbyist minimizes risk.

...I would look elsewhere for services.
She's not girl-friendly anyway so I'd pass right on by.

but I would be worried about a lousy session with a girl who I find I am not attracted to when I get there

They run a phony ad, and one five or six-person LE crew can nab 20-30 johns in a day.  They make cable documentaries out of the process here.  Been dozens of them.  Other cities will set up stings for outcall girls.  usually its holiday inn and best western establishments.  That's why most outcall girls won't go to cheap hotels.  Four or five star hotels are too expensive for the LE budgets. The low-end johns don't care where they go.  They don't expect the Ritz when the rate is $120 which is how they get baited by LE.  Economics aside, its usually great PR for LE to look like they're cleaning up the neighborhoods.  They show all of the johns on TV and in newspapers to discourage other johns from going.  

It was without a good deal of hesitant on my part. I did a lot of research on them, looking for any info on them. My biggest challenge was not wanting to encounter the one situation that we all worry about.

I'm all for helping out with suggestions if a newbie has a question as to her place in the market.  But not only did you up your rates from a couple of months ago, but you still have no reviews, so the answers will be fairly the same.  Initial price point was $600/60 mins, increasing with no review history will not change that much.  

But I would not see one at a high price point.

It never happens like that in the Northeast and I haven't heard of it happening in other places in the US I've frequented.

LE uses really hot photos with really low rates on their fake ads to pull in the most johns they can (guys thinking with the little head not realizing if it looks TGTBT it is TGTBT). The OP here was asking about no reviews and a high rate. I have never heard of LE doing that. I would be more worried about a scam, or just a lousy session (like GaG) not LE.

Definitely do the research on your area...  

Even here in Hawaii though it's rare here. LE used BP a lot for sting ads like that. They have even showed these stings on TV on shows like 60 minutes.

This seems to be a common theme on forums but I wonder are people just getting too excited over nothing?

but THIS lady doesn't fit the profile you are talking about. First off she is not going to generate 20-30 johns a day a her rate, I am sure she can only wish that 20-30 guys would be willing to meet her $900 minimum. Secondly, she has an actual web site that she has put some work into, LE is not going to put that kind of work into a sting that will run one or two days max.

Gina will screen you big time but I think it's worth it for you.

A referral from a p411 client in good standing.

Synopsis of the OPs Newbie Post:  LV stripper new to TER, has provided occasionally in the past and is now thinking about providing full-time.  Has a few regulars and wanted tips on website pics, value in the market, getting reviews, etc.    

...it worked out just fine. Especially when my repeats were deeply discounted. As for seeing escorts with no reviews who are in my regular price range I have done that a number of times. Success rate is 50/50. As far as I am concerned every new encounter no matter how well reviewed she might be is a roll of the dice. You just never know.

Both were high rate and both were awesome.
I also believe as a client having a good session is 50% or more up to me. The energy I bring will be matched or exceeded.

from what I understand, she may still have to give up personal data to be approved.  

You only have 3 and they all look professionally done which with the amount and quality will make people assume they are fake.  Take some selfies and add them on to your website.  Try to establish a presence in as many places as possible.  People here do have a point about rate being too high to risk seeing someone without reviews but I'm not a fan of people telling others what to charge.  If you put more pictures and ads up and utilize social media than I think you will be ok.

But it has to be by an established reviewer within the last 3 months.

The market simply confirms or denies the rate the woman sets is the proper one.  

Home page.
I know it's on the second page but us Hobby guys are lazy and need to know right away if you are even near to where we are.

I don't know about where you live and hobby, but in my part of the country officers pose as Indy all the time and set up stings to catch guys that way. Then again the Indys  they pose as are backpage, which I avoid anyway so it does not matter to me. Agencies are left alone. I guess it depends on what is more prevalent in your area.

SA, is sort of like this. Game is played differently, rules are modified some, but for many the needs and wants are the same and their are no reviews. I've had two SA dates,  but prefer a few verified escorts I know and those who are well reviewed.

A woman may set the price but ultimately the marketplace will tell her what's she worth. That's what I meant.

In my area john stings aren't that rare. It is a real concern. As I understand it they are very rare in other areas. As this is a general board it is impossible to advise on actual risk of LE. Maybe where he is they happen more often then in your area.

For safety's sake, outcall only. Also, I usually want to meet at a restaurant or bar and then cab back to my hotel. All of this minimizes any chance of LE stings (no one controls the space).

A professional looking website  would get more guys (high dollar spenders)  interested imho.

xyz and I often suggest offering a discount to get the ball (or balls) rolling.  

You could buy yourself a whole new chicken coop for the price of her minimum session. rofl

You made me laugh with that, I almost fell out the chair. Her website looks like is made from one those cookie cutter type websites, I even see the low end providers use same site.

Back in the day we had to see ladies without any reviews. Then when TER came along I was fearful lurker, and continued seeing ladies without any reviews. In those heady days, my sessions averaged in the low 50s. Finally I had one mediocre session too many, and decided no more. When I started seeing ladies not only with reviews, but great reviews, my sessions started averaging in the mid 90s, with three perfect 100s. The price is irrelevant. The reviews are all too important.  

Sounds like she needs to get that first review badly. I asked because of something I saw on her website about wanting some P411 okays.

But she has to fly to me, or give me a First Class ticket to fly to her.
After all, I am a whore.

big bucks for an unknown quantity? Some bucks maybe but not big bucks.

Hey, I have a pair of those pink boxers (courtesy of a fund raiser in 96) and I look GREAT in them -- it's the big gold sheriff's star that really sets off my eyes

I was going to propose a free session and $500 for a 10/10 review from me, but you have already undercut me, you slut.  

Although you are a beautiful woman ( based on your pictures online) check out P411 for the city of Las Vegas.
At your rate, you would be in the upper 15% of the ladies in Vegas.
There are over 350 very active ladies just on P411 with great reviews and yes, gorgeous.
Why would I take a chance on you when I have so many other options that are a sure, sure thing and most are less $$$.

I haven't been active until March 1st, had an emergency March 16th but between that I had 2 clients from my website both from a advertising site.

This exactly. My clients from the club wouldn't dare.

Was that necessary?

There are plenty of providers with a template site within my price range.

I asked a direct question, thank you to those who answered- I was just curious.

I was busted at a VERY nice Embassy Suites in Greenville SC doing an outcall. I dont know why this isn't legal! It would cut out so much negative bs if it were legal!!! Like seriously, What gives?  I wish these clients would learn to write reviews and become verified online.

not speaking from experience,    the news was that the new sheriff is not only taking down tent city but has scrapped the pink boxers.

At least three or four times a year. But the numbers are much higher than one or two. They pull 12 to 20 a weekend with John stings. They do likewise for providers.  Some areas LE is very active while others they aren't a real threat.

Marriott's are especially notorious. I will not hobby at the down town Marriott for that reason, but I wouldn't hesitate at some cockroach infested motel. Cops like nice room's too, and given multiple mid to upper hotels donate the rental for stings as a tax break, why would they choose a place with giant mutant roaches?

Wide nets catch many fish. Given they get federal money to run stings, the more busts equals more federal money.
