On the Mystery Shopping Job Board, there's a recent post by a company called Albatrossonline. I don't see them in the links at the bottom of the page. They claim MSPA membership. I was just wondering if anyone has ever shopped for them and how are they to work with?

I found them on the MSPA site, but not a live link. When I went to register, the default country was China so I decided to hold off registering until I hear something here.

If you search for "Albatross" it should come up, including a fairly recent thread. What you're putting in the search box is the actual url. You'll see Albatross Global Solutions on the landing page of the site, and yes, they're legitimate.

James, I have completed a shop for this company and find them very nice to work for. While they do not have a lot of assignments in my area, they are very supportive, responsive, and have paid me in a timely manner (and I found their pay to be quite nice for the particular shop conducted). They actually paid me so quickly that I overlooked it on my paypal record. Their reports also seemed fair as well. The editor had some questions, but was very patient with my responses back to her (as it was over the Christmas holiday). They seem to have shops for higher end retail establishments. I think you should give them a try! If you do, let me know what you think.
I don't have first hand experience with Albatross, but Coyle (which is apparently the Mystery Shopper Special Forces or something) refers to Albatross as their partner.
