This site is all about just what you are talking about. I will NOT see a provider without reviews, the more the better. The cost of TER is minimal compared to wasting money on a dupe. I have never walked on anyone but i'm prepared to do so if this ever happens again. Many times you will see photos of the same girl, but they are sometimes 5 years ago or longer. I do expect the ladies to try and have the best photos of themselves looking their best, but don't exaggerate this to the extreme. Many like to hide the stretch marks and other imperfections. This can be such a turn off that it ruins the whole experience. Generally, (not always) you get what you pay for. If you see a really hot but unreviewed babe on BP for 100 bucks, there is a 99% chance you will be very disappointed with the results. The ones that charge 400 and look 10 years older and well worn are the real killer ... walk on them, and then write a review so we all can avoid her!
OK, I need to vent out my frustration. How many of you hobbyists are victims of the old "bait and switch" technique? It has happened to me a number of times. The ads posted would show providers as beautiful, young hot women. When you meet the provider in person, she would make your grandmother look like a Playboy Centerfold. This is really pure bullshit !!! What is the best way can I avoid a trap like that again? I do not want to assume all ads are false and miss the opportunity to really meet a beautiful provider. Thank goodness that we have TER post reviews of providers BUT not all providers are reviewed on TER.
...invent a system where we could find out in advance, you know, like before we get "trapped."
Maybe one day, TER will develope the software to be able to read reviews to tip you off about the bait and switch artists and maybe someone, one day way in the future, will post on the Newbie Board the importance of seeing only reviewed hookers.
But until that day comes, and it can't come soon enough for me, we'll just have to go on and keep fkin grandma.
switched all my switched to motion sensors so I can easily avoid them.
As for bait, I'm not fishing any time soon so I avoid those completely.
Try out the motion sensors and see if they help you avoid them. ROFL!!!
Seriously though, best way is to stick to good reviews, check reviewers review history of the reviews, see the profiles and photos of the girls they've seen and compare their scores to see if they score similar to your tastes. Stick to agencies that use a more realistic photo. Do tin eye or google search to dig up similar photos
And NOT give them a nickel. Why reward bad behavior? It tells them there is another sap out there willing to throw something at them for what..... lying?
I would print off the fake pic and take it with me, then when grandma opens the door and you have that oh so predicable gasp of WTF, just put the image up against her and go, nope you are not the girl I booked with, so sorry to waste your time.....and walk away. I would even flip the biatch the bird.
If the girl is only slightly older or slightly different from her perfect model photos yet still hot, then I stay.
If she looks like Large Marge from Peewee Herman movie with eye balls dropping out of her skull sockets and what not, I just walk out in under 1 second flat. Maybe 0.5 seconds at most.
These days I do a more thorough due diligence and rely on other reliable guys, back channel.
but somehow the advice doesn't seem to take. It seems like the guys that bitch the most about B&S are the guys who have a dozen reviews that start off with
"She wasn't the hottie in the picture, but I figured WTF, I am already here, so I went ahead with it"
How many reviews like that have you read? I agree, until "hobbyists" grow a spine, this shit is never going to end. and what are the chances of hobbyists ever growing a spine? I would say those odds are less than zero if that's even possible.
BTW you are starting to sound more and more like a certain "biatch" that seems to be absent of late. I recall you even calling someone a "fool" please don't start using the trademarked term "whilst" or people are going to start to talk. lol
The OP said this has happened to him a "number of times." Now, I'm no dummy, so I think "times" is plural, which means at least twice, but I am guessing it means more than that as well.
He is telling us he is "frustrated" while also informing us he sees girls with no reviews, at least on occasion.
Now I have tremendous respect for the TOFTT crowd, but one of the reasons I respect them is that know what they are getting into. They don't "bitch" about it afterwards. The OP is like a guy that fills out a job application fixing bridges and then complains about his fear of heights when he gets on the job.
This dude needs to dump or get off the shitter. TOFTT and suck it up, or do his due diligence and read a few reviews so Betty White doesn't open the door for his next incall.
Bitching about it while knowing full well what the risks of TOFTT involves is stupid and pointless.
The OP has reviews going back almost four years. There is no excuse for TOFTT and then bitching about it here.
Whining and bitching about B&S BP women on this site is about as useful as complaining that the sun always comes up in the east.
Probably a saucy little minx in her younger days......
and her "hip replacement" years are in full swing. She doesn't cause any boners anymore (if she ever did) but now she sure has the antedote for them now.
She does have a dirty mind though. I love her wit, always will.
And where I was born, that is what we actually say and here's few others, learnt as opposed to learned, amongst and whilst. They are commonly used. I have had to stop using them here.
One of the best liked "biatches" that has ever posted here, and I have noticed more than a few similarities, which is intended as a compliment.
When you called someone here a "fool" not long ago, you sounded just like her. Don't worry, all you have to do is say "you like big dicks" and all the comparisons will stop. lol
Sorry, I love the small johnsons, so versatile with what I can do with them and actually like it. LOL.
Now if you could get your post count up high enough to knock me out of first place in the TER's "biggest blabbermouth" department, all would be right in the world. lol
Are not deceiving, when in doubt, you can always google the number or email or run images on tineye.com
Sometimes even posting on the local board may help you, but it is just easier to find someone with a established rep here...

then it probably is.
A few have said already that do Tin Eye and/or Google Images. Majority of the time, if you see a knockout lady of BP, most likely it was stolen from somewhere else.
You need to start using your brain, not your dick as guide to get the right lady.
Long time ago, I was in the same situation as you are now because I did not have a established methodology of weeding out the fakes from the 'maybes'. While doing Tin Eye may not be exactly 100% foolproof, it does weed out a lot of the fakes on BP. That has saved me a shitload of trouble.
Try it.

You might be doing yourself a favor if you just don't visit that site any longer
to a complete answer -
even the "well reviewed" providers will often use glammed up or photoshopped images. The images are advertisements - so they want to look their best. And honestly a lot of providers who have been around a while tend to continue to use images that may have been "honest" at one point but are no longer representative. To an extent this is not intentional dishonesty - it can be laziness with respect to keeping images updated, or unconsciously clinging to a body image that they do not fully realize is no longer accurate...
look also at the motivations - better pictures draw more people, and most people are not going to walk away when the pictures are not representative -
sometimes on backpage etc you can go by the cell phone selfies - ironically they can be more reliable than the planned shots you see in many portfolios -
you also need to learn to be able to look critically at images and be able to tell if they have been blurred or manipulated in photoshop.... if you know your anatomy it is usually easy to tell
and I will observe that I have met providers who are better looking in person than their images - either the image quality is crap or they are just not photogenic -
ultimately though if your sport is to hit girls who are not reviewed you are going to deal with a much higher percentage of this than with reviewed providers - if the images are completely bogus most (but not all!) reviewers will note this...
Tineye is you're friend http://tineye.com/ The site searches the web for identical pictures being used. You enter a picture or URL and it will tell you if the picture is being used on multiple sites by different users.
