Ok guys,

Fully understood the moaning about the pricing, it is quite expensive, but it's well worth it, I just had my run after having 3 others for half the price, failing big time, I decided to give this one a shout, and guess what, she made it with a big flag on her head >_< Droks > Grotto's {35k) well worth it, will use you again Linda, great work.

Thank you for your feedback Serenity, it was a pleasant run.

Thought I would toss a personal endorsement in here for Linda. Obviously I endorse all the graduates of the Academy, but I have run missions with Linda and can promise you that it is worth the money to have Linda get you somewhere. Yes, we charge a lot, but if you value your own time like we value ours, you will not be disappointed, and you will save more time and frustration than you can imagine by getting things done perfectly right away and around your schedule.

I do not doubt her abilities as a runner, but given the availability of so many runners, the prices do seem a tad high...

kagunster · Mar 28, 2006, 09:01 PM // 21:01

the runs honestly are expensive, but it saves you a lot of time because lbs people actually know how to run

magnetic mage · Mar 29, 2006, 09:20 AM // 09:20

Well overall he price seems fair if lindas a good runner (which by other posts it seems she is) apart from possibly droks to rankor. Ive dne that run with a lvl 15 ele. Maybe 5-8k for a party but probably not 10..

Thanks LBS, I recall the runs you are referring to, they were some great fun.

Aaah, good old times... wait, it wasn't that long ago.

I highly recommend this runner.
She ran me and some other people from Becon's to Drok's. It was almost flawless! Best run I have ever been on =)

Keep it up!

Having heard good about LBS and her graduates I am certain you are an excellent runner. However, a trainer with good repoutation and excellent running skills don't encourage people to pay prices double the normal (or even more than double if you don't have a full party). There are so many good runners offering the same runs for the normal prices or even for free that only the very rich ones will really pay for great quality.

My own running service (not mentioning name or anything, this is your ad thread, not mine) offers most if not all of these runs for the normal prices and prices depend on the number of customers. Our runners are rangers and speed is mostly the same as on any good runner. Services like mine are offered by so many that people shouldn't even consider your services after looking at the price.

Still it seems that LBS graduates are getting enough customers (or not, as most of this thread is bumps). What is the secret? The name? Enough rich people who want well known and excellent runners? Other runners buying your runs to see how to run like you? If our service had such high prices we wouldn't have any customers.

If LBS really is a name which makes people pay double price, I will attend her academy too.

Incorrect, not only "rich" people make use of our services, at least not in my case.
There are also people who farm just to get enough money to have a run done by me, ofcourse though the majority of customers have a lot of money to spend, yes.

I see some decency being shown here, that's nice.

Unfortunately, there are still many who do not take this into consideration when uttering their criticism.

That's not really nice, is it?
Basically you're saying everyone should share your opinion on my prices and disregard their own.
I believe people should make this decision for themselves, LBS runners are generally all considered easily capable of any service they offer, so if someone wants to make sure to get quality on the first try and is willing to pay these prices for that why not let them.

Now, if you look closely at this thread you will notice that I asked people to either PM me their request on this forum or whisper me in-game.
Most people pick the easiest way and contact me in-game for their runs, so far it's been multiple requests per day consistently.
These requests vary between anything on the list, from all mission completions, to Southern Shiverpeak Tours, Jungle Tours, a World Tour, certain individual Southern Shiverpeak runs, etc...

The bumps in this thread are the only thing actually required, they keep the thread being noticed and thus provide a steady flow of customers.
Some feedback is posted every now and then as you see but most people don't even bother with that, although it's nice to see for me and well appreciated without exception.

I would like to defend both

As I like both LBS (I have never gotten to the interview though, haven't really asked everyone) and the running service of gem.
Linda heartilly is a very good runners, I also see her as a friend ^_^, same counts for Gem. So I can't really be defending both sides can I ?

And I can tell you from experience, a good name can get you high prices. If I'm not in the mood for a specific run I ask a high price, sometimes they don't mind and pay it all

just because its me who is running them.

There will always be a battle between low priced and high priced runs, but I look at it from this point of view:
The high price runners will get paid because of their status, ppl buy expensive boats/cars just because they are the best of the best, and very reliable!
The low price runners will combat eachother to get enough customers, they have to drop prices because they don't have a status that makes them trustworthy and well known.
Then there are those who are very good runners but just don't have the wide known status, but still run for high prices. They just jump over places to see where there is a need of runners and then ask a high price.
That divides them in:
-roll royce sellers, high quality, very expensive
-renault/opel/toyota sellers, not very special, they combat in prices
-sell everything everywhere, jump on the market sellers.
-second hand car sellers, they make it once in a while but keep trying and drop their prices so low because it's fair (why pay much for something that doesnt have a high success %?)
-santa's, they do free runs all over the place to help people out.

I hope this helped a bit,
that said: Linda Heartilly rushed me through thirsty river, well done!. I think she is the best runner in europe ^_^! (I just don't tell this to my customers :P)

Hey

I am here to say that I was very happy with Julia Heartilly's services.
He recently ran me from Beacons to Droknars and the Southern Shiverpeaks Tour. Both were completed flawless and fast!

I hope to be ran by you again in the future

Very good job!

Edited the initial post as follows:

Added Iron Mines of Moladune mission completion.
Added the Infusion Run package.
Added various notifications and modified pricings for the current discounted Ascention Packages.

Ascention Packages are curently discounted for a - so far undetermined - limited period of time.
The ending of this temporarily discount and reversal to the original pricings will be announced at least two (2) days up front.

This will most likely be the start of a chain of discounts putting the focus on different types of runs every time.
