Surfing the site today and the London reviews one caught my eye – one of many stellar reviews for the stunning Petra of Groovy-babes  http://www.theeroticreview.com/reviews/showReview.asp?Review=494661&user=113231

The model in the photos is Playboy playmate Melissa Puente -  if only : )   http://www.almightyzeus.com/gals/melissa/puente/

While some of the reviews are clearly fakes (which is a separate issue), others may be ignorant of - or at least accepting of the Bait n' switch.

My thoughts are these :-  if the girl looks enough like the photos, and is priced appropriately - do you care about the Bait n' Switch  and even if you do would you turn her away at the door?

I suspect most would conceal suspicions and go on with the booking anyway (assuming she was attractive) - either out of embarrassment or short term desire.

For those with an enquiring bent -other stellar reviews of girls the same site include model/pornstar Veronica Zemanova  (Samantha) , Penthouse Pet Kyli Ryan (Adriane)  Sunrise Adams (Patsy) and Dani whose real name I can't recall -although she is naggingly familiar.

I have only had the proverbial B&S occur once when I was new to the hobby. I went on with the appointment and the provider did all that I expected. I assumed she was just much older than her pictures.

Since then and finding TER, I figured out what had happened. Even though I was satisfied with the appointment because I was new, I didn't really know what to expect.

Even now I still feel duped.

The sad thing out all of that is the lady was older (40+) and I actually see a number of providers who are her age. Had she advertised "truthfully" I might still be seeing her.

If the girl is equal to the pics but different I would be ok.  I have had a couple of B&S encounters, but nothing to really upset me.  What does upset me is a GFE advertised, and you get there, rules... where to touch, how to touch(I Welcome suggestions as to hey, i like that or do that some more or what really gets me going or other suggestions of what TO DO!), no kissing of any kind... no this no that... hee hee!  kinda like being married!

I have also met providers who, yes, it is the girl in the picture, but to be honest, the picture is not a fair representation of the lady... and mostly really she turns out to be just plain fat, ugly or disgusting in some other fashion.  so, yea, like that - not a fair rep, that gets to me.

In the days before TER, and most of my experience with the hobby was with Lot Lizards; I once decided to spend a mid week vacation in Las Vegas with the express purpose of getting laid by some “classy call girls.”

I started with one of the brochures off the street and called the first one that tripped my trigger and she calls me back and asks me to meet her at the elevator and it’s not the chick in the picture at all, but she looked pretty damn nice so I took her up to my room.

After finding out that keeping her to myself for the entire evening was cost prohibitive, she left. After exactly one hour.

I went downstairs and tossed the bones for a couple of hours and was at least breaking even, when I started getting horny again.

I went back to my room, thumbed thru the brochure—there was a lota hot chicks in there!—and called another one, only this girl was willing to come right to the door of the room and as I look thru the peep hole I know immediately it’s not the same girl cause she’s Asian and I ordered a Redneck. But I didn’t care cause she looked like Asia Carrera.

“Come on in sweet heart.”

And so it went. I think I must have made and kept appointments with 5 or 6 girls over a few days and every damn one of them was a bait and switch and it was the best and most expensive time I’ve ever had in Vegas.

I used to be subject to b&s a lot until I took up TER, and even now I have had some b&s when I ignored the fact that there were no TER reviews.

I care for two reasons:   first, even if the girl may be "hot," I probably selected her because of something special in the photo.   It would be rare that the girl had the same special quality, no matter how good she was.

Second, there is the matter of credibility.   You never know when you call the agency next time whether you will get the same girl, and you can be pretty sure that if you pick another girl she will not be the one in the photo.

I've been baited in switched 3 times over the years.  The first time a more economey model was delivered than what I ordered.  I was so horney, I subcumbed, and regretted it.  The second time I sent her packing, and by the end of the night wished I had not.  The last time, I suspected it might be going to happen, and it did.  When she arrived I told her I was not happy about it, and would only pay her $100.00 less.  I also told her that I would only pay her when I was done and that I had to be satisfied with her services.  I axpected her to turn on her heals.  She did no, t she said O.K., but  had to call her service.  I guess they worked somethig out.  She and I wound up having a pretty good time, but I never called her again, because she was not my type.  Obviously this was a fly by night agency.

...but that would piss me off to no end. I'd walk away no matter how good-looking she was.

If you're uncomforable showing a picture of yourself, don't show one. There is no excuse whatsoever of showing a picture of another woman on your site.

to have this same discussion on another board and find out I was not the only one that had a wierd practice.

I often print the ladies pictures and fold them up and put them in my pocket. Yes, I make a comparison upon arrival. Will also tell her, and then leave. It is as simple as that. I will not trade with a B & S girl, I don't care what she looks like. I have walked away 3 times over the years, point of principle. That is the only way I have to get back on those that perpetrated on me.

I only use photos, when I am out of town, and am suspicious or trying someone new out with no reviews (TOFTT). When I am contacting a known TER provider with plenty of reviews, there is no need for that.
