High / ridiculous prices ? Sorry, no longer horny ...

[carlco777]

these days, i feel more and more this way, with the prices being quoted to me.

anyone else ?

i'm boycotting ..........

[4FoW2]

Many are. I have a circle of contacts in the punting community and all tell me they are punting less due to 2 things price and performance.
And please enough with the " I've got a regular who gives me top performance at a great price because I am such a good client"
Most of my punting friends are not happy with a massage and just a RnT. Seems Wg's due to lack of clients are trying to charge more to fill the gap.
This strategy is common in the low season in Thai etc.
Little do they understand that if they drop their prices then by pure volume their earnings will increase. But they didn't get the A's and B's at school, more than likely.

So what does one do?

My strategy now: 2 x OS trips per year (usually June & Dec) to Phil/ Thai etc, 4 Footy & Fucking Trips to Sydney, when I get really horny - go to "proven" shop and take my chances and of course, regular use of Pornhub et al.
Apparently mental health professionals say to keep a positive and optimistic view on life you should always have something to look forward to in the near future - the trips OS and Sydney trips dispersed through out the year give me this.
So its usually 6- 8 wks before I know there's something good coming up.

For every problem there is a solution.
Hope my contribution gives food for thought for others so they can improve their punting experience. And remember ...if its crap WALK!

i think someone in here should organize a trip for us all to go to Thailand or PH for a get-drunk-fuck-or-be-fucked kind of experience. But alas, i don't know anything about Thailand nor PH.

"And please enough with the " I've got a regular who gives me top performance at a great price because I am such a good client"."
But it's true.
How about, "please, enough with the whinging about prices" and move on. It's like everything in life, supply and demand.

[JR_punter]

I guess prices will continue to go up, thats life..... u work within your own personal budgets....
WL trying to pay there bills too

[Bucket]

The question is, is the price the same for everyone? Maybe it reflects on you if they seem dear, maybe they’re trying to get you in particular not to do it

I'd be down for this. Is there anyone here who is a party planner?

the worst part about is that with higher price the standard has droooopped.... the VFM equation has totally gone south!

[darkice]

What prices are people seeing now?

Seems the same from where I've come across?

If its true how about some detail?

There are posters on the board who have the knowledge & experience to organize this BUT getting people to agree on when, where, how long, $$ etc etc is too much of a hassle. Best to travel with a wingman who you know well and you share similar ideas on the finer details.

That's fucking awesome strategy!

Yup - exactly what I have started - first trip to TH was in March for 3 weeks - looking at cheap flights for the next one - though never been to PH - may have to try that and compare.....

PAL ( Phil Airlines) are cheaper than others and trip is ok - manilla airport is not the best but if its just a stopover its ok.
Maybe look at PAL to manilla stay a week then Thai and then return home - my last trip to Phil got Bus flight return for 2.3k return.

Sounds like a good plan - will look at that as an option for next one - and not bad for business flights price....

Thought about a punt today and was doing research. Now for me its about the extras not the massage, the massage is just preliminaries before the main event.
I am noticing that most places now are $70 for 1 hr and $50 for 30 mins. At the 40/60 price point I thought OK I can go for trials and walk out if I choose but 50/70 for the unknown seems as the original poster said ridiculous.
Interesting my all up maximum spend per session is $250 but I think the Wg's are killing their possible business off by charging high prices for just the massage. I mean it seems insane to get $50 for probably realistically 25 mins work and you just stand there and rub here rub there and then say ok times up.
I know its only $10 more ( and I know they have their overheads) but do others think the $10 increase is a bit stiff?

I think realistically no ML gets the full massage fee. If it's a $70 for an hour, at best they get is 50% of that. Mls receive a basic wage of $25 - $30 an hour. Hence they make the money on extras. A few shops take all the massage fee and the MLs rely on the extras. Some shops fine girls if they don't come to work, come late, receive bad reviews.
So MLs may charge $50 to rub here and there, but that's not their wage.
If you're a ML how much should one earn (not talking about extras) in Australia for massaging random old men who try to touch them not stop?
Are pricing going up? As far as I can tell, not at the shops I frequent. They've been the same for years. Even T5 back in the day charged $70hr and many thought they were the golden standard.
I assume many of us earn more than we did 4 years ago.
Even Sydney massage shops have increased in prices. Brothels have increased in price.
The only complaint i have is private escorts ridiculous prices.

Yes and the other point is they probably do a 10 hour day say, and need to share with the number of staff in the shop, so wouldnt be doing 10 clients a day….relie on extras to make it worth while
