For someone new to Seattle you've got the pensiveness thing down. You should start calling yourself a native. I've never heard anything bad about Laughing Budda (aside from the flier thing, but we don't do those for strip clubs here). The place that I've heard recommended most however is the place on Pike street in the basement on the same block as the Wild Rose (i can't remember the name of it). The things you should look for however aren't whether or not they have fliers or clothing or anything of that sort. Make sure first and foremost that they are sterile. If they aren't practically neurotic about sterility, then don't give them your money. Secondly, make sure that you talk with them about what you want done long enough for you to get a good feel for their, um... bedside manner. If they're some asshole that just jams shit through you slam bam thank you ma'm then fuckem. Wow. For someone new to Seattle you’ve got the pensiveness thing down.

Still, even in NYC, I wouldn't go ANYWHERE that wasn't NY Adorned, so I shouldn't be too hard on Seattle.

I have no direct experience, but you might check out Slave to the Needle next time. it’s kind of funny that for a town with such sorry ass options, you had so many choices within a few blocks.
