About the o.p. who has been on this board more than 4 years:I'll have to chime in here and agree. And vent. I posted a TOFTT review for a provider, the only bad experience I've ever had with anyone, and what do I see from the OP a few months later? A "TOFTT" for the same provider. Why did I waste my time giving information about a provider if not to dissude others from taking bad bait? What's even worse is that the OP posted in that same thread of MINE. What the hell, man. "Research methods"? I'd call it something else.
Based on available data -- six NO reviews in 12 months plus the experience related above -- might be time for the o.p. to rethink his entire hobby style.
Sorry I am for his latest experience, and I am not questioning its validity.
But his research methods (mainly backpage!) show an obvious lack of success leading me to believe imo that he should either quit trying to hobby in Binghampton NY or figure out a way to "import" some quality providers to improve his batting average. Or hobby in a distant community where the targets of opportunity are more quality oriented.
