Cali bound, latest news needed.

[zaebis]

Folks, how goes the battle. Ok here I am ready for my trip (yes again) to Cali in a few weeks. Will scout the agencies that I recall from my previous trips. My top of the list are ACG, Cali Charm and perhaps Latin Best. Anyone had a recent experience with those? Is Ricardo still around in ACG? What ever happened to Luz Amparo from Latin Best? Are there any new agencies worth mentioning in Cali? Thanks.

Hmmm, I thought somebody down there would have answered. As noted in another thread the Cali Charm website is down. Are they still around? That is pretty much unkown to me. To my understanding ACG is in the process or has already moved out of the mall.

Ricardo has fallen on hard times and is currently running the agency out of an office in the south that is slightly bigger than my closet. I don't know for sure but there is a gringo down here that claims he is renting latin best for a million pesos a month and is currently running the business.

Zaebis you might want to focus on online personal sites for Colombia (and social networking sites) before you go down. Just my 2 cents but its what I think these ladies focus on now for the most part. I can only speak for the age group I search in. The younger women are more likely to know (at least some) english and use a computer either at home, school, and/or internet cafe. IMO many women in Cali are interested in us (so that hasn't changed). It just appears their means in finding us has.

I've checked the various agency websites for awhile now and it just didn't look like they were adding many young women that fit in my search parameters (at least those agencies in Cali).

Ouch. Must be that global crisis made its way to Colombia. It is all Bush's fault!

On a more serious note though... Anyone can confirm about ACG situation? Their website still has ChipiChape addy. Are there any agencies left standing in Cali? Recent experience is much appreciated.

p.s. and yes I have been active on the social sites as well to line up some contacts. Thanks for the hint!

Centro Profesional Panamericano Office A, first floor, Carrera 36 # 5B-60. (ACG's new office)

To be honest I'm not sure recent experience even helps at this point. I know ACG is still around but that is all I can vouch for at this point. I'm a young guy but they say Cali was basically the agency capitol of the world at one point. Gringos flocking to Cali in the past to use the agencies. I think we all still flock there. Just not using the agencies much anymore.

Zeabis:  Luz Amparo of Latin Best is offering to sell her data list of female members to other Cali agencies.  My source is a woman I've known for several years who owns an introduction agency and previously worked for ACG.

He he... Ok sounds like Cali agencies are, indeed, things of the past. Yeah those were the days. I guess I have to do my own leg work now!
