If you don't like the price being charged by an agency or an independent there is always an option. There are SP's offering their services for cheaper rates too, and agencies that are cheaper. Sometimes it is possible to find a gem and continue to see her at a reasonable rate then again sometimes you must pay for quality. You shop at Dollarama sometimes you end up with crap, now and then it's a deal, same can be said for this hobby, but in reality getting the crap can cost a fortune in the long run. I have seen some that I just wouldn't stay, loss of time on my part. Then again I have seen some independents and agency girls where I did pay more but wow, service was amazing and my re-visits saved me money in the long run.
