Not everyone here is addicted to psychics. My thing is shoes, lol.
I found a couple of really good readers from reading this forum, people that I probably never would have found or called on my own. Of course I take into account who is offering testimony (either good or bad) and the type of call being made. It's usually not on size fits all and genuine readers usually have a specialty.
I've only jumped on flavor-of-the-month a few times and I was sorry every time. I keep a "might call" list and 98% of the time ending up crossing readers off it without having had to spend a single cent when the results come in a few months later. This site has been invaluable for that.
