Actually, several of the big agents (Manus & Associates, for one) do assist in editing mansucripts according to their listings in both Jeff Herman's book and Writers Maarketplace, but do not charge for it upfront. Granted, I'm sure they'd prefer something ready to go to publishers right away, but they are also looking for "the next big thing", and I doubt they would pass on a manuscript exactly as the author submitted it to a large publishing house without working it over to some degree. That's all I meant.
