shouldn't they be posting some where else other than the independent escort section since they aren't escorts?

That and spamming "erotic services" on CL. CC you know it makes your business look unprofessional to spam? Your website is weird too--you ask people to pay before you even tell them what they might be getting!
Since you post here interactively I assume you are actually legit and providing a good service but for people who don't know that it just must look fishy.
(Haven't seen any good OR bad reviews of your service so I don't know how legit it is honestly.)

It's been good to know ya
From reading all his posts on the board it appears he has the inside scoop of who has cancelled rooms etc... and is able to know where your best deals in any given area are (who is offering what) discounts, dinners, breakfast etc... I think he is not posting all these specials as he hears of them on the site instead is posting them here on the board which could be good for travelling business men when they are touring to different areas at different times.
I think this is good for sp's too in one case when you get a man asking where to stay you could tell them to contact him or look yourself on the board to see if there is something he is offering close to your area rather than another sp's area. If I were still an sp I might just pm him when I get an e-mail from a man looking for a good deal in my area and find the offerings myself and then forward the information on to my potential client.
I do not view this as cutting business for an sp but possibly a bit of an assistance. Men on the boad can also just read all his last posts and keep updated themselves when deciding what accomodations would suit them.
If all this is legit I feel it is helpful in keeping us updated in all the offerings he comes across.

I used it.......got a good deal........but when I checked in the guy said I had a PRICELINE room.......so basically you just pay this guy a commission to go through the priceline process for you.......so keep his number handy if you aren't near a computer......other than that.........go to priceline.com...hotels.com...or hotwire.com yourself........

You have officially one of the worst websites I ever encountered.
(did some kid put that together for you??)
Its very unclear what you offer, yes I see its hotel rooms but at what price is not clear. Are you similar to priceline where one can offer on rooms??? Or are room prices set??
Also what are those $15 to $50 deals??? Are you telling me I can get the 4 star Omni in Montreal for $50 or less??? I highly doubt it buddy, be careful you dont get nailed with a false advertising charge.

your missing the point he isn't an escort period. we aren't allowed to roam the board posting our advertisements where we want. really it's bad enough that there is so many indies posting a girl is lucky to stay on the first page on a good day. i personally think he should fork out money for a banner or post in the CL section
actually that's not the only problem i have with the Indy section maybe terb should have a suggestion sticky / box/ pm
for eg... independent means
an independent person or thing.
not relying on another or others for aid or support.
i see a few ads that could be considered agencies since they are not one independent woman

I agree his site could use a more detailed description of what they offer and how they operate. It could also be that he has no particular place to post and just feels he is advertising and paying for it so just goes to advertising sections. He is paying and if it is bothersome then it is something that terb should work out for him on his behalf. Plus I agree there should be more clarity offered or an introduction page on the site.
I am all about pay for advertising as people can attest, and I hate seeing Spamming on CL, However, this guy is paying for advertising here. There is no other service likes his advertising here right now. There is no point in creating a section just for him. I am sure that the mods and Fred have gone over this and have told the places that he can advertise.
I get your point, he is not an escort - he is not cutting into your business, something about his ads or website is getting to you and others, I get all that, but where do you purpose he does advertise?

Thats great but you need a better 'about page' on your website explaining exactly how the process works.COPYCRAIGS.COM said:
I occassionally go to Montreal, so I may use your services in the future.
And if you can get me the Omni for $50/night we can definitely do some business
ive used their services many times with no hassle. just cheap hotel rooms (often in my favorite hotels). i prefer it to the gamble that is priceline.
Copycraigs before you go into siege mode you should probably reflect a bit on WHY you are getting the negative feedback. In all probability it has nothing to do with your service, it's for two reasons:
(1) You are a spammer
(2) Your website asks for money before telling you what you pay for
Those practices make you look like a scam. From a few up thread you are not a scam--well maybe you are just reselling priceline or something--but really you would get less blow back if you fixed your marketing practices.

Listen buddy.......why do you pick out my one line that pulls my statement out of context...I had said I got a good deal...anyways........ if I'm going to take shit for it let's stir the shit and ask some questions.......why did the clerk tell me I had a priceline room??....why did I ask you 3 times for rooms on different nights and you couldn't get me any jack schit of a deal??....yet I went to hotwire and got the Delta for 53 bucks US myself the last time you couldn't do anything......good luck to you.......you have just dropped one client that had your number in his blackberry.
I've never used CC services before but...
I don't really know why some people are getting bent out of shape. If you don't want to use the service, don't. No need to bash the guy/girl/group for profiting off of those who don't want to/know how to/have the time to search for deals.
Clearly the people at CopyCraigs are providing a service getting lower priced rooms. They don't state how they get them (and obviously they're not best friends with all the hotel operators...) They obviously would use the resources available to them to get those deals and profit from it. So, they use search engines and deal websites. (- ie. priceline, expedia, hotwire etc.) I can see how their service would be useful for some people, however for myself, I am adept at searching online for deals and have the time to do so. Others may not.
If you knew that you could have searched for the deal yourself and gotten it, why complain about the fact that CopyCraigs didn't do it for you?

Noir....I said I got a good deal!!!!!! Read my post!! I did not know he was just a priceline reseller according to the clerk at checkin.........then because of him and someone else on this board and only having failed to book through CC.COM.........I went to hotwire and priceline myself........but still thought having his number would be handy as sometimes you need rooms on a whim!!!! I got no problem paying a company for a service they are providing...........but if you have the time and resources you can do it yourself. I have used him....I referred others to him.....planned to still use him.....yet I got a few words highlighted by him that show my post as a total negative......
