This thread is what made me curious to drop a few $$$ in Kick start's direction, and this is my review:

1) Kickstart Locators IS a legitimate company that will work hard for you and get you locations.
2) KSL did a great job of finding me locations so far (I have only purchased a couple, but I do like how they are on top of things and really get me something fast)
3) KSL is NOT the best locator that you will find, YOU are-you know your town, its area, its popular places, etc etc; but, if you don't want to spend your own time either going from door to door or calling everybody in the phone book, then KSL IS a great tool for your business.

Bottom line is, KSL (in the little amount of time I've dealt with them), seems to be a great and legit company; so what if Rob doesn't personally return phone calls, he has ALWAYS given me a personal reply via my email--time is money, and he probably doesn't have all day fielding calls for someone with a petty question or two that he may be stuck on the phone for quite a while with--Best of luck, man, and KSL keep up the good work; you can't please 100% of the people, because it just simply can't be done, but IMO they do quite a great job and take a LOT of the legwork out of it for me-
