Deadbeats, Freeloaders, & Scammers
Earlier this month, I wrote an article about Custom Foot Fetish videos. It was about the prices some sites were willing to charge, and the prices some fans were willing to pay.
Now we are going to reexamine that and another aspect of being in tune to foot fetish fetish fans, and that is by the sale of merchandise. But the main topic will be the delivery of final product, payment for it, and the lack thereof.
I have categorized them as deadbeats, freeloaders, or scammers.
First, let me start off buy saying the word custom work can apply to photos and videos. There are sites that do one, the other, or both. Second, custom work can also extend to merchandise, especially worn items.
Fans find sites that offer these types, and if they offer what they want, it should be a beautiful meeting of the site's product, and the fan's payment. But sometimes, this beautiful arrangement ends in disaster.
Often, there are deadbeat fans who don't pay for their customs. You may ask, how does that happen? Doesn't the site secure payment from the beginning? It all depends on the site itself. Some sites ask for up front payment, others don't. I have a strong opinion about up front payment. In my mind it demonstrates fan distrust. I have other opinions about up front payment. One of the main ones is a site not being able to pay the model doing the custom, if she is a hired model, unless the site gets paid first. Lets say the site trusts the fan, does the custom, and waits for
payment. The fan looks at samples (if provided), and decides not want to pay for it. This also applies to merchandise, such as when a fan asks a model to wear a pair of socks, stockings, or shoes for days, so her scent can be in them. A price is reached for the merchandise, and the fan backs out. The deadbeat custom fan is one of the worst fans around. He gives a bad name to future custom fans, and is almost solely responsible for the institution of up front payment.
There are also freeloading fans. These are the ones who ask to see more and more of something for free, with no intention of paying for anything. If they see photos of a girl they like, they may often request to see more of the girl before they can decide if they want to join the site she is on. This also extends to video. The best freeloaders are the ones who signup to password sharing sites to gain free access to sites they like. And it doesn't stop at girls or video of girls. It can extend to items as well. A freeloader will ask to see more of a worn item just so he can get more free photos, knowing all along he has no intention of making good by buying them. There really is no limit to the amount of stuff a freeload may ask to see. Freeloading fans are the ones responsible for sites making galleries with small photos or posting small images on their tour pages that do not link to larger ones.
Now that you know about some of the bad fans foot sites encounter, its time to expose the bad sites that decent, honest fans encounter. You can almost spot them a mile away. They are some times no more than a homepage on a free host such as AOL, Hotmail, Yahoo, or Geocities. There is usually very little effort put into the building of the site, even if it is hosted on its own domain. One of the other tell tale signs is the lack of payment options available to perspective customers. One site in particular known for shooting women candidly in parks, and at close and often uncomfortable proximity to them, operated for over 10 years, and never incorporated electronic payment into it. So if that site welched on sending your order, you had little recourse. It often takes weeks or months before a person can put a claim on a lost money order. And to try to recoup from your bank the funds from a check lost in transit can take equally as long. Electronic payment gives you a leg to stand on in the event you do not receive a product or the product was subpar or defective. Fans should also be wary of sites who do not respond to email a in timely manner. If a site has too much on its plate to return email timely, be wary of doing business with it. Attention to detail goes hand in hand with attention to customers.
One final note on scammers. Fans, of course, can be scammers too. They can easily say they did not receive an item, while knowing full well that they did.
It is never a pleasure to encounter any of these three individuals. But once you have, you can take steps to safeguard yourself against them in the future.
