After just skimming over the Intellishop job board, I was very surprised that they took the already-low $17 fee for their on-site-visit shops down to a cheap, terrible $10.
These shops are time consuming and force you to deal with some of the most dishonest, vulture-like, advantage-taking salespeople I've ever experienced. In the past, I've spent an hour just in the part where they all but hold a gun to my head in attempt to get me to purchase the thing I was sent there to shop.
There is another mystery shop company out there that has you visit similar locations, pays $30 per shop, sometimes with bonus. They have pleasant schedulers, prompt payments, and they don't send you crazy, inconsistent follow-up questions that they then add insult to injury to give you a crap rating.
I really hope that some of the Intellishop schedulers, owners, or editors read this forum. If so, you are truly insulting the work that mystery shoppers do and paying them less than, if not half, the minimum wage, when you combine the travel to the shop, time on-site, and report writing. You can do better business. Shame on you.
