Two replies that sum it all up. The girl has the right to charge what she wants to charge and the producer has the right to pay what he wants to pay. If the two do not meet then they don't work together.

I think a lot of the comments here are based on what people can afford to pay.

I've never relied on agencies for my talent and always shot brand new girls. If you want them brand new there are two ways to get them. Pay more then the others via agents, like those paying $2,000 a scene, or find them for yourself. That's what the agents do.
