I joined their site many years ago. It's important to note that is you sign up for their FREE membership you will receive weekly e-mails.... maybe more. But periodically they offer a one-time fee that will get y you a lifetime membership.
I was happy with spending my $50 and being a lifetime member.... until they charged my credit card for something I did not order and did not receive. At the time they only had an e-mail for contact. They never responded. I had to call my credit card for a charge back.
They immediately canceled my lifetime membership saying they don't have members who charge back credit cards. I tried to explain I'd e-mail twice, they claim to keep records of all contacts and wouldn't listen to me.
Obviously I'm very disappointed and I do miss the membership but I don't think I see very many new models since I was last a member back in 2005.

As others have noted, they've been a nightmare in the past, billing me for renewals long after I've cancelled my account, and sending offerings via snail mail to my house after being requested not to, and the mailings made it clear to whomever picked up the mail that I was a paying customer. Hard to believe an outfit that looks so classy and that has such topflight babes would act that way.

The reality is that there are many sites - Twisty's, Nubiles, ALS Scan, the Playboy sites, Karups are examples that come to mind = that treat their customers well and are responsive to issues that come up. Then there are others that just want your money and will rip you off or won't respond until you practically hit them in the head with a 2 by 4, and then give you attitude and lies about how they respond to all e-mails immediately and already gave you everything you deserve anyway. I find that, for the most part, with sites like this around it's actually easier to avoid the sleazebags and go with the class acts.

Yeah, you know the porn shops around here still sell used (rented) DVD's for $40-$45. They treat the customer like a pusher treats a junkie.

It would be a nice site but I guess porn will never change. Show contempt for the paying customer.

JD, you've got it so right! There's a schizo element between the classiness of their product - Mark Daughm is a DAMNED good photographer - and the sleaziness of their business practices. They may treat their models well, but they treat their customers like dog crap - they are full of bait-and-switch tactics, selling subscriptions to products - CD's, DVD's, books - that they then discontinue with no financial recompense. They were one of the first porn-related sites that I ever spent money on - and they made me regret it many times over - LOTS of incorrect charges to credit cards that I then had to spend time getting them to reverse with NEVER an apology.

I rate them among the worst - right "up" there with the people that run MyaDiamond.com and EveAngel.com - and I have found that the people that run Watch4Beauty.com are in the same league as well.

By the way, I think the whole phrase is:

"There's a sucker born every minute...and two to take 'em."

Great line anyway.....

Well, jd - for one I'm still on the usenet - from time to time - when things get too boring and nothing comes out of nothing.

But your warning against this site/plague takes all - thanks.

It's probably the best warning I've seen untill now here at PU...

And bottom line: GREAT COMMENT!

In case you don't know who PT Barnum was, he was the circus master who coined the phrase "There's a sucker born every minute!".

PT Barnum Would Be Proud

Here is a site that needs to be avoided like the plague. Get this----they are selling sets with about 35 photos and 1 video for SIX DOLLARS EACH!! That is EACH SET. So if you want the complete collection of say Aria Giovanni (18 sets) it will cost you about $108!!!! You have the option of joining for $29.95/month which will earn you 50 credits good for the purchase of approxiametely 10 sets. Sound complicated? The webmaster had to create a 24 minute video to guide you through the site! It's a shame, because it looks like a quality site. But it's really a porn supermarket. Maybe it's time to go back to usenet :(
