You, my friend, are awesome. What a perfect reply. Somewhere between 10 and 50. Basically, if I can find history going back several months with consistent pricing and pics, then I'll contact her and ask about reviews and/or personal website. Sometimes it turns out there's a profile on a large site like ECCIE my searches didn't turn up. Other times, it leads me to a board I've never seen before. And, of course, sometimes I get "huh? what do you mean?" Like I said, I like "shopping." 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 20, 2016 WOW - it's hard enough to find time to sneak away for the actual appointments, how do you find the time to winnow 50 prospects down to wheat and chaff (or gold and dross - pick your metaphor)? Me, I just read the reviews, if someone has a lot of positives, looks good, and looks like my type, I just put them in the "favorites" file and when all of the ATFs are busy or out of town, I can start down the list. Usually don't get past number 2 or 3. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 20, 2016 Not rude at all, she is in business to promote herself so she should happily refer you to reviews and if she is unwilling to do so you might take that as a sign that there aren't good reviews. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I spend a lot of time at work waiting for things to complete. It's kind of like watching paint dry, so it gives me the perfect opportunity to do some window shopping. And when I say 50, I'm just quickly clicking through BP ads--most of which I know are not what I'm looking for. I probably only spend time on a few of them. ...gold and dross, I wasn't familiar with that one... 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
