Okay so I've got hotels booked thru Mida (travel agent in Bali) but after speaking to another travel agent, who I have also been getting quotes from, they ( the Aussie agent) have said to me, that if I have never met Mida in person, and never dealt with her before, then I shouldn't trust her, and that the hotels booked may not even know about my bookings.

Mida's prices were the cheapest by a couple of hundred $, so I really thought I was getting a good deal, but is it too good to be true? I thought she she seemed like a good person to deal with based on the countless recommendations about her on BTF.

So, I'm seeking advice.
Is Mida a trustworthy person? Is this Aussie agent, whom I don't wish to mention to ruin their rep. ( as they have countless recommendations on BTF as well! IRONIC!) being truthful about what could happen to my so called booking with Mida? Or are they just trying to get my business?
Mind you, this agent has ALOT of business esp. in Bali, so I don't know if it's really about the money, or a genuine concern for my booking!

Help me!! It's so hard to decide what to do when your travel companion tells you to make all the descisions!!!
