Phd - How do you define "above board?" If you mean by this a time when there will be no scams and all customers will be happy with the product they receive then the answer is never since there are scams and poor products in every industry. Otherwise there are already registered companies and tax paying writers that do operate in a legitimate fashion like in any other industry. Just because some people frown upon an industry be it essays, tobacco or anything else dose not mean an industry is not "above board."

The best way is to state what you want when ordering, that way every one knows what you want from the outset. You also have to be reasonable though, a 1,000 essay with requirements for 20 sources is only going to attract a writer with a lot of time on their hands. Its not really the number of references that make a good paper but how they are applied.

I don't think there is really an average customer. From my experience, A-D all exist and more, there are as many reasons as there are customers.

If a site is legitimate you have to ask why they would not want to be discussed. Best left alone in my opinion.

Yes if you want a custom essay, that's what you need to order. Not only will a pre-written essay be detectable using Google, the paper will probably have been put through Turnitin or some other such software so buying a pre-written essay and handing it in is really bad idea. Just the way it is, there is no pretense on the behalf of Academon that these are anything other than "used" essays so you get what you pay for.

Since you paid for installments you should have got installments. However, I never understand why customers ask for installments as it slows the process down. As Pheelyks states even a relatively long paper will be completed in 4-5 days, something which takes longer if every single section has to be sent backwards and forwards first. For this reason I hardly every bid on installment jobs. You seem worried about having only 4 days to complete 5 sections, a good writer could do a whole 15/20k dissertation in this time so I would not worry about that.

Hi,

You are not expected to re-write the whole paper, think of it as a marking job. Some of these papers are truly horrific and need to be done again, if that is the case just say so on the sheet. Its the comments on the marking sheet that are most important, you are expected to edit with track changes but only to a reasonable level for the fee.

Hope that helps.
