Private Galleries on AdultWork

[Tony Montana]

Having gone to the trouble of buying credits and them spending them on private galleries I'm really pissed of about the shit quality of the pics.  The WGs are just uploading any old shit there and there's no way to get a refund.

PGs should have good quality pics, show the girl's face and/or provide something over and above the free gallery.

 

[Tailpipe]

Its a good point Lex I hate buying AW credits but do have some fun with RBs , then of course a bid takes your fancy then you may buy PG
Then when you open it you think WTF waste of credits. 

[Jimmyredcab]

  The WGs are just uploading any old shit there and there's no way to get a refund.

Refunds ? 

No, seriously, refunds are never going to happen ----- even when the profile is removed for being a scam.

My answer is to limit the amount of credits that I buy, I will spend £5 a month, I can live with that.

As with everything related to Adultwork it is a case of buyer beware.

The only ones I have bought are from the following profiles:
External Link/Members Only
External Link/Members Only

They do duos and therefore you might see the same pics in both girls galleries but overall I thought they were very good pictures.

Weirdly some pictures have the girls faces blurred whilst some don't.

[skittish]

Personally I think the PG's are a shit idea and you have to be a mug to look. Who benefits only AW and the prossie as far as I can see. Would you pay an entrance fee to be able to see what Tesco's has on sale.

No, so why pay to see a prossies photos?

Any old shit and laughing about punters doing so no doubt while making from the credits as are A/W of course. I would rather cut my dick off than give them or WGs one penny in credits, ever for anything.

[Flemstone]

I've had some alright luck on the PG's. I'm collecting pictures of all the WG's I've been with. My ex wife is paying me £200 a month for 18 months. So I've been spending that money on WG's. I plan to send my ex a very large folder of all the WG's I've been with when she's made her final payment.  So far I've got  pics of 14 attractive girls. No point in sending her pics of the less attractive ones.  She's still got 15 months worth of payments to come. 

[Rochdull lad]

I occasionally buy some AW credits simply for the purpose of looking at a girl I've not seen before to make up my mind if she's worth visiting. 

The things that bug me about PGs, and you've no way of knowing until you've paid your credits over, are:
1] whether you're actually going to see a face to help you [me!] decide whether or not to see her;
2] whether the photos in the PGs are going to be more explicit.

Some girls' ordinary Galleries are far more explicit than other girls' PGs.

[KentAde]

One pet hate of mine is when a WG advertises loads of pics in her PG and half of them are just repeats

This particularly annoys me when girl says face pic in private gallery. What a load of old tosh I would never fall for that crap it's a PG scam as far as I'm concerned, if she's prepared to put a face picture in PG why not the free gallery?
Answer: she wants you to pay or she's pig ugly, no other possible explanation.

[Daffodil]

There should be some means of reviewing the private gallery. I don't have a problem with it per se, and spend about £10pm on them. However, like Lex says, it's very frustrating when the pictures are shit.

They are not a shit idea and I am not a mug.   

Suppose a girl is worried about showing her face on a public web-site, she cuts down the risk if people have to pay to see her face, obviously some people will abuse the PG system.

Too many people want everything for nothing on the internet, someone has to pay somewhere along the line.

Yes but you would also said you would rather piss yourself than pay 20 pence for a toilet. 

[joshwinkers]

I'm collecting pictures of all the WG's I've been with...

I do that, shamefully enough, normally only with profile pics, but if they were especially hot I've paid to see their private galleries. So far I haven't regretted it...

Fucking hell, I always thought men got the raw deal when it comes to divorces. I don't suppose she's looking for a new husband, is she?

Sorry I don't buy into the security thing regarding PG's, her boss, neighbour, uncle or whoever they're afraid might see can all pay the quid or whatever to look if they suspect. I've asked a few on AW to send face photos not all but some have, how the hell do they know who they're sending them to?

And yes advertisers pay for the internet, consumers pay for the product which seems like a fair arrangement to me. Of course I could be missing an opportunity maybe I'll start asking my potential customers to start paying to look at my website.

[wristjob]

There are a lot of bad profiles on AW.

I would say the gallery should have enough to be willing to book the girl, so maybe 4-8 suitable body pics even if there's no face shot. The PG then needs to add something extra - either face pics or a decent number of momento type pics in various poses.

I'd say i'd be much more likely to pay say 0.5-1 credit for a face pic which may influence whether I see the girl. I'm really not into paying 3+ credits for some girly pics of a random girl - lets face it the internet is full of free porn so why would you. I guess maybe if a girl was really that great you might want to pay after the fact and I think I did that once.

[Jimmyredcab]

Of course there will always be an element of risk ---------------- but what is the odds of her neighbour paying for her private gallery, more chance of getting a free ride in a black cab.   

[Jimmyredcab]

I have a limit of £2 ----------- that is ample ------------- and it has nothing whatsoever with wanting porn.   

I want to see a face before I spend £100, surely that is not unreasonable.

[wristjob]

I think the normal galleries can probably appear in google searches and the PGs can't. As far as your neighbour seeing you in a PG what's he going to do - go round telling people he was checking out WGs and paid for pics of one who turned out to be .... Doesn't exactly make you look cool does it.

[skittish]

That's my point the chances of a neighbour paying for the PG are probably very similar to the neighbour stumbling upon the free gallery images in the first place, virtually zero. Unless the neighbour is a punter or already suspects, the argument just doesn't hold water IMO.

[wristjob]

Pretty much my attitude and i guess tons of others. Any WG who is selling face pics for more than a couple of quid will be losing those £100 bookings by doing so.

Someone could well prove me wrong but I've tried that and as far as I can see they don't.

I think people who pay for private galleries are more likely to be punters, so it's less of an issue if you're spotted.

You could take your argument one step further and accept prossies are within their rights to wear balaclavas when meeting new punters incase it's somebody who might recognise them.

I definitely don't think there is ever any reason not to email a face picture to a punter.

[smiths]

Yes but you would also said you would rather piss yourself than pay 20 pence for a toilet. 

So what, i posted my opinion and your trying to undermine my opinion with this post just shows what your like. Interesting you cant debate without resorting to scumbag tactics of trying to belittle.

I couldnt give a shit that you pay for PGs, thats your business, i wont do business with those i know are scumbags like A/W who of course benefit from a WGs PG.

Its a way WGs have found thanks to A/W of making more money and help line A/Ws pockets as well of course. Some WGs may well think its worth the risk of only showing a face pic if the punter has paid for the privilege, as you say who knows what could happen to that or those face pics though. A WG that concerned simply wouldnt supply face pics at all in my view.

[Festisio]

Private galleries have saved me from visiting numerous prossies who looked nice from their gallery pics but upon seeing the PG face shot I decided not to bother since they were a bit rough.

Obviously in a perfect world every prossie would show their face on the free gallery, but since they don't this is the next best thing.

Of course there have been times when I've bought a PG for 1-2 credits and there hasn't been a face shot.  Still, it has served me well.

Punters who denounce PG's and smugly say they never buy them are maybe happy to accept low standards face-wise or only punt with the 0.0001% of hookers who have a face shot in their regular gallery (and of those that do, a majority are pretty rank anyway)

I just don't think a face picture is particularly incriminating, if taken out of the context of adultwork, i.e. supplied by email.

Anybody can get hold of picture of anybody these days (off social media or whatever). Just because I have a face picture of somebody and claim that she's a prossie doesn't constitute proof. That's my feeling anyway.

I agree that a face picture anywhere on an adultwork profile is incriminating, but those within private galleries are less likely to be seen by simple nosey-parkers.

I'd order pictures in the following way, in terms of incriminatoryability (it's a word  ):

Verification picture (i.e. identifiable picture plus holding an AW card) > identifiable sex picture > identifiable nude/part nude > face picture on adultwork > face picture via email.

Exactly my point, paying £2 for a private gallery can be the best investment you can make, I once saved a two hour round journey and £100, bought the PG and could see she was a dog.

If you are interested in a girl but the standard pics are rubbish and you must see a face pic before booking, then simply ask the girl for a PIN for her private gallery, if she wont give you a PIN then don't book her.   There is no guarantee that the PG pics are going to be good anyway.

Pretty neat idea hadn't thought of that. 

[Tailpipe]

If you show a interest in a WG and approach the subject without sounding like a stalker
or a nuttier they seem more than happy to send you a few pictures.

But the pin idea is a good one.

[Timo]

Don't really like paying for private galleries, but they can be revealing in terms of what her face really looks like and if she needs to be avoided. So can be money well spent.

Bit gutting when you pay for a private gallery and the pictures are no different than the free gallery so you're none the wiser!

So why not follow ellwood's advice above, Timo?  It's a simply, brilliant, idea!!

You could also ask the girl to E-Mail you a face picture --------------- however no guarantee that she will comply.   

A member on here recommended a girl to me, I sent her a polite PM asking for a face picture ----------- she totally ignored my request. 

[lovelysofia92]

Never really saw the point of setting up a PG myself. I can't imagine they're making too much money off of it to be honest but I'm sure there are plenty of gullible guys that fall for PG scams or even worse, worthless pictures.

Some genuine girls have told me they make £200 per week from a PG, they use it for number display and only occasionaly take money out as AW take 30% (?)
If set correctly there is money to be made, why else would the scammers want a piece of it 

[potato]

AW do take suggestions - but probably only the ones that make them money. I suggested to them the other day that that they should not allow PG's until the pro$$ie had completed the verification process fully- still not foolproof but it would cut out some of the scammers.  I don't suppose they would take up that idea for one minute as it would cost them too much revenue.

Your reputation probably preceded you JRC     I didn't say asking for a pin  or face pic would always work but its worth a try. She may not have a face pic in her PG anyway - in which case she may not want to send one privately either.  She could have responded with a polite decline to your request though instead of just ignoring you - and they wonder why they get such a bad press...

May just be me this applies to but for genuine girls a PG can be counter productive. If I am in two minds when trying to assess if a profile is genuine, the presence or absence of a PG is something I take in to account. If I have a number of profiles to choose between, and don't want to waste time fully checking them all, and I suspect that it may be a PG scam I just move on. I will not suspect its a PG scam if there is no PG, obviously.

Having said that, I've never paid to view a PG, I've always used free views, and I'm even a bit mean when it comes to using them.

[Rochdull lad]

...

I must confess that whenever I've bought AW credits, I've usually bought enough to entitle me to a credit or two so that, whenever a girl has charged "silly money" to view her PG, I can do it free.

It's a good plan, fred.

May be you should setup a PG I would be happy to help with the pictures. 

I have just given you my 3000 UKP post

That is easy to answer.
Setting up false profiles cost the scammers nothing ----- so they have nothing to lose.

A bit like when you get those Nigerian scam E-Mails asking you to launder money when all they want is your bank details.

Holy shit, I never thought anyone would pay for porn... Time to start up my own company!
Then again maybe they're only paying, as those above, to check them out before a booking?

That is what the vast majority do. I don't believe many pay purely for the porn.

I think it's guys who are in to a lot of ameture, homemade porn who enjoy scouting out the good galleries, suppose its a bit more of a turn on to think that the girls your looking at are attainable and do actually do the things they say in their profiles.  From a Wg point of view, I don't show my face on public pics because it is too easy for the likes of my dad or uncles to stumble over, yes, they could quite easily pay ( the thought is now making my skin crawl, eewwww) but, they would then have to sign up to the site with an email address then purchase credits. Most guys just arn't arsed by that so in my opinion, cuts the risk of being spotted dramatically, then if someone outs me after that from an unblurred pic in my pvt gal they've then also got to explain why they had gone to the trouble of signing up in the first place

[Kriss]

I don't pay for porn, I pay to see a face picture.   

Same here. I take it for granted that all WGs have fannies and tits. I exect to see her face and whether or not her pubes are as she states ie natural, trimmed, brazillian, shaved or whatever.

[Redster69]

How do you use pins for private galleries? I got one of a Escort I met last night and have no idea how to use it?
