Pros: |
The perspectives are correct. The video, and therefore bodies of the models, are not distorted due to the video not fitting the screen correctly.
No DRM.
No download restrictions
No regional discrimination
Great customer service
Wonderful navigation. Once you get used to it, it's easy and efficient.
The sound appears to be actually in synch, unlike some sites.
3 qualities of video. The highest is good quality.
Very good value
Genuine no trick download 5 scenes for free offer.
They do a write up of each dvd and have an editors choice for what they consider the best scene.
You can keep a track of what you have downloaded with a personal download history. |
Cons: |
Only one billing agent - Epoch
Only one video format - WMV
Not as many dvd's as some sites
No pictures - apart from a few stills from each dvd.
The layout of the site is not as attractive as some. This doesn't affect the quality of the dvd's, it just looks less glossy and appetising. |
Bottom Line: |
My very first 90, because for me, this is the best in its class.
I have tried to be fair and not let my liking for fetish material weigh too much. For the number of dvd's available, the percentage of fetish is probably better than any equivalent site.
Here are the stats
3 levels of video quality.
480 by 360 with bitrates of 637 kb/sec
480 by 360 with bitrates of 1140 kb/sec
640 by 480 with bitrates of 2147 kb/sec or 740 by 480 with bitrates of 2083 kb/sec.
The customer service is absolutely brilliant. I asked them a question and they answered within the hour. Have you ever joined a site and got that sinking feeling when you realise you've done your money or been conned in some way? Well this gave me the opposite feeling. I consider this to be the best site I have joined. It gives me a warm feeling to spend my money on a site run by people who DO give a shit. Gawd bless yer Toadsith! I joined because of your review.
There are fewer dvd's than on some sites, but this is offset by the quality of what they have. Even after saying that, they still have over 1700. Also there isn't much point having a ton of dvd's with a worthless navigation that makes it impossible to find anything. This allied with the fact they have actually kept the original specifications and perspectives of the pictures. No Video Box situation where quite a few of the videos are distorted because they simply haven't bothered to fit or adapt them properly.
The whole feel about the place is that they DO care. It's those little things (actually for me, they are quite big), like having the correct picture and sound, great customer service, and great value for money.
The only thing is I'm gutted at having to finally award a 90. Ebeneezer Squirrel hates giving high marks, as you all probably have realised. Bah humbug. |

I voted for a year, but given the replies I am thinking maybe six months would be better.

I'm the one who put "within two weeks." It does vary, but occasionally I even cancel after a week. Sometimes I leave it as late as a week or even a few days, but I generally like to take NO chances.

Great review. I agree with all you have said. One of my biggest negatives for this site is one of your "cons," namely there are far too many clothed spankings. This is one thing that has prevented me from re-subscribing to the site.

Yeah you're right it does. I'm going to have to keep my eye on this one. As always my strategy will be wait until one of the big names has reviewed it before I take any chances with my money.

Excellent review - very thorough. The cons to me sound rather annoying, so I'll probably give this one a miss. When it had DRM it was a definite no no, but it still sounds like it could do with some improvement.

That offer must be for 3 months, or it's the first reverse discount. Congratulations you have a first! Reminds me of Reginald Perrin - "great sale offer at Grot Shop...20 per cent on everything."

All of them. The reason I put Bad Reviews is because that would feature all of those negatives mentioned. I am NOT subscribing to a site with DRM and very unlikely to subscribe to one with download limits, but it depends on the limits. I don't mind paying a high price for a great site. better that, than subscribe to 4 indifferent ones.

Yeah that sucks! Ask them for the discount rate. Sometimes a site will go with the TBP rate if you quote it. But as I have said elswhere, it does look as though Pink are practising Regional Discrimination. They did change the name of Teens For Cash to Pure Cherry Girls, and it was exactly the same site in everything except name, so that's why I thought it may be the same thing with the MILF site.

It's possible MILFSeeker has become Hottest MILFS Ever. That site is available on the Pass. Also if you use the link from TBP you should get a $10 discount to make it $29.95 instead of $39.95. Beware of the cross check sign ups. I was nearly suckered when I tried to sign up but I noticed. It meant although I liked the site I have not resubscribed.

Cheers. I agree with you 100 per cent. The great thing is, if anyone does has have that ripped off feeling from a site, they can come here and warn others. At least that way you can feel good about saving others and making a poor customer service site pay. That's also why the trust ratings and the status of some of the name contributors is so important. Anyone can post a warning, but for me the important ones come from the established names. In the end, how good a site is, will be inevitably revealed.

Is it my imagination or are things getting worse with customer service overall? There appears to be 2 lines of thinking and 2 types of site. One with the excellent customer service, and excellent quality product, which they consider will get them through a recession. The other one is the cutback/no customer service/get as much out of them as possible, attitude.
I know which side I will be supporting with my money. When one of the big trust names here says sometihng like this, I take notice. I hope everyone else does the same. This way the decent sites get rewarded, and so do we: For spending our money wisely we are rewarded, when we receive quality product from quality sites, with excellent customer service.

Looks like a great candidate for the unethical sites thread! It's part of the Incredible Pass organisation that looks really really bad.

If it's any help I clicked the link from the UK and it showed a price of £23.95 so it does look like they are practising regional discrimination. It also looks like some sort of discount applies using the click, as otherwise the amount would be more in pounds. $39.95 would work out at more than £23.95. But $29.95 should be less than £23.95.

Fake breasts justs get the vote over tattoos. Both of those are a TOTAL turn off.

One more thing. Sites like this, run by these sort of people, undermine the efforts of the really decent sites like Karup's, who bring quality porn at a reasonable price, without any tricks or cons.

I think you have been over generous with your mark as this site is clearly run by conmen. The mark should be a "0" as this is what the site and the people who run it deserve. I really don't think TBP should even advertise this site, unless they have a special "red warning listing" for those sites who deliberately try to deceive and rip people off. Thanks for the warnings though. It's scumbags who run sites like this that really do give porn a bad name.

Thanks for the info Denner. I was slightly favouring PC as it looked like it had a little more hardcore than HA. I also slightly favour European to American women, so that definitely tips the balance.

This looks like a great site, and the customer service has an excellent reputation. I have never joined but am considering it. The question is, which is better, PC or Hometown Amateurs? Oh yes - and NO regional discrimination I presume.

I know Toadsith speaks very highly of American Vice. Been thinking of subscribing there nyself. All depends on whether they have regional variation or what their sign up policy is. It doesn't have the abundance of materials that Video Box has, but sounds pretty good, and very cheap.
