Being a novice at this I assume going through an agency means you pay a lot but the girls are genuine and look amazing though photoshop'd at times.
Also following AW reviews means girls on that site are fine
Do agency girls also work on AW independently and if so are they cheaper?
Through AW I would have thought an agency girl would want to be more competitive so indepedancy is the way forward. I imagine the agency commission to be a lot.
Are the agencies that popular?
Firstly an Agency can just be one pimp working from his or her parents back bedroom or from their car, all they need is a laptop and mobile. As proven over many years some Agencies are scamming pricks, some arent. As ever research on here can help locate WGs recommended by punters you find credible who work at Agencies.
In London Agencies simply ensure what punters will be paying is often a minimum of £150 an hour whereas in the North East some Agencies charge less and some punters rate them.
Some Agency WGs are Indies as well, but some are seemingly prepared to only work at Agencies agreeing to pay the pimp an agreed cut of their fees. Sometimes a WG who works as both is cheaper as an Indie, sometimes not. Yes Agencies are popular with some punters though due to their cost not me.
