A bit of a funny one, I'm thinking of making an offer to a WL to see me privately for a night during her usual working shift. She usually only does 4-5 hours per shift so it's a case where if the price works for her and she's interested then hopefully it's a mutually beneficial win-win.

I already have her # and we chat, but I just wanna keep it transactional and clear rather than anything else. Fair value for time and services.

Let's say her usual rate is $280 per hour at one of the major shops, I remember someone once saying in another thread that the shop usually takes $50 off the top for room hire?

So let's say net for the WL is $230 ph hour at work, would $250 ph seem reasonable?

Am I correct about the shop fees above or completely off - anyone know?

I've tried sussing out about shop fees before but lots of WL seem to like to avoid the money conversation (I'm sure for valid reasons). MLs are usually easier to negotiate with hahaha.

Thanks in advance for any insights.
