    26% is quite a lot, but not that unusual.

    Ignorance is bliss.

    Must be part of the market here in the city but I ALWAYS ensure that the agency is on the client's PSL, so I don't end up with an agency daisy chain and also that they are on a fixed margin known to the client on top of my rate, means they have an interest, however small, in getting you a good rate.

    I would be looking for some heavy negotiation at renewal if that comes, down to 15% ish.
    Never has a man been heard to say on his death bed that he wishes he'd spent more time in the office.
