It depends on the shop. I've seen them in a wide range of prices.

They told me directly they lowered all their fees since the "market will bear it"... meaning test to see the low amounts and then add a "bonus" which brings it back to the normal price.
I did a couple of Sinclair shops two months ago. They paid $140 each but since I had my own equipment they paid $150
Why don't you just sign up with Sinclair and check their job boards. The shops that they have in other areas they might not have in your area.
From what I've seen their video shops are in line with the going rate. In answer to the OP, I don't know if they loan equipment and provide training. If you have only been mystery shopping for a couple of months you need to be a sure a company will do both unless you want to buy a rig and pay for training with Undercover Essentials.

The posters that say the fess have been lowered, are those for written shops?

Sinclair has equipment they loan, but they do put a hold on your CC until the equipment is returned. They provide minimal training. I could not have completed my video shop for them had it not been for one of the experienced video shoppers here taking the time to mentor me...and I'm willing to pay that forward.

Of course I don't like it when a fee is lowered for a shop but the requirements remain the same. I understand that's capitalism at work and the MSC needs to get the shop done at the lowest possible fee but that doesn't make the medicine go down any better here. Depending on the circumstances, I may not continue to pick up those shops unless I see a bonus that piques my interest. On some shops the fees are screwed down so tight that if the least possible thing goes wrong we're looking at lose lose. That's not a good plan to win win.
