That may have been true a year ago, but now M/O is experiencing a lull in visiting providers. There are some coming here, but not the same quantity or even quality. The wide range of A+ providers that toured here a year ago has been replaced by the same hand-full of traveling providers.So, I am known to be a BP friendly guy. But, above all, I value quality services and providers. I like to surf BP and look for the hidden gem. But I would almost always be willing to pay a premium for a known commodity. For example, when making contact with BP advertiser, I almost invariably ask if the lady has reviews. I would prefer she does, but understand that if she does, she is intrinsically worth more.
Also, BP providers seem to be doing FAR too well here now.... I personally think it's keeping the A+ providers away. They can't compete (pricewise) with the BP girls. Originally Posted by houston.alexxx

Some ladies choose to advertise both places and provide stellar service regardless. Many ask potential clients to identify the source of their ad, so they know the rate [to expect] and service level [to provide].
I am loathe to negotiate a rate with a verified and reviewed provider. I simply would not do it. I have always felt that way, And indeed, it would be inappropriate and verboten for me to do so now as a mod.
This is intended as a discussion topic, and I am throwing this out there to jump-start conversation. Thoughts?
