any recommendations for a reasonably priced adoption agency?

I am sick of the agencies that virtually engage in human trafficking by charging ridiculous prices for a baby.
Their prices do not justify the work involved.
Anyone know a reasonably priced agency in KC?
thanks,
Anil

Have you tried Nancy Bean? I heard wonderful things about her and the agency. adoptionandcounselingservices.com She is almost half of A.O. or A.&B.- plus, as a birthmother, I can tell you firsthand- those others are costly for the adoptive parents, and not all they claim to be for birthparents either.

$1100 is cheaper than what we paid for our homestudy and doesn't seem out of line at all to me.
