2000-2003 massage $50-$60/hr - a proper massage - follow up usual $30HJ or $50 top nude or $80 full nude/slide - occassionally some offer full BJ and body slide touching for $100 - price increase was acceptable but quality of therapist /attitude / quality of service has gone south
Yep concur with those prices - my usual spend back in early 2000's was $150 all up which I think was 50 M fee and 100 extras whereby not necessarily FS but definitely BS with NHj and touching allowed.Quote:

Ah the good old days discussion.
Time to wrap it up grandpas. Whats next? Young people today?
Putting the issue of quality to one side. I was curious to know if you spent $150 in 2001 what the equivalent is for today? A quick search told me $1 in 2001 is equivalent to $1.71 today. So, $150 in 2001 is eqivalent to $256 today. The shop fee of $50 in 2001 is equivalent to $85 today. $100 in 2001 is $175 today. So, based on this price has increased, but the increase would appear to be not all that different to what you would expect. However, on the quality side, it does appear that shrinkflation (it's an actual term in economics) is in operation and is affecting both quantity and quality.
They’ll be on about interest rates soonQuote:

Don't usually contribute to general discussion, but felt a need to make a point. Using historical statistical data to compare and analyse a current economic situation, to me, seems like a perfectly logical and intelligent thing to do, as MR. FredWrad has done as well.
Yes, I too, sit on the porch in my rocking chair, watching the young bucks galavant around thinking quietly to myself " Young, dumb and full ....", you know the rest.
Don't kid yourself, you'll be there one day.

As a totally off-topic aside, I'd like to add that 'Puff' is a German slang word for brothel...... ;)Quote:

In another thread a guy here stated that he didn't regard MLs/WLs as humans, we recently read the proud report of someone who caused a deliberate CIM 'accident', a few weeks ago a ML told me how she got almost raped by a 'customer', etc. etc.; maybe all this has also a bit to do with motivation, prices and service quality.
I was younger, dumber and broker in those days, so usually just went the basic option. Handed over two fifties for a $60 shop fee and said keep the rest for extras. There was of course only a handful of shops in and around Brisbane back then, so the quality was much higher. If I was after more, I would happily drive down the Goldie on occasion where you could get much better bang for buck which would have left me out of pocket around $120/$130 for an hour with bodyslide and DATY and a BJ if you got the right girl.Quote:

When she stopped doing massage, that's when I discovered the Asian places. The good old days. haha
I think that’s a fair comment?Quote:

If asked to pay more….I politely decline.
I’ve also come across some girls, that are new to me, who take a different approach with pricing. They list the menu, then ask how much I’m willing to pay? I guess it’s a tactic…..try and maximise profit from the unwary? Personally, it puts me off….usually leads to some form of bartering process. I can’t be bothered with that….. it’s become a transaction, not a connection.
Obviously, it goes without say, the very best experiences I’ve had, money is never mentioned…..that’s when you’ve found a reg.
On a tangent; big price hike I’ve noticed, entry fee at certain shops?
Some are now asking $80-$90 for an hour. I tend to walk, unless there’s the carrot is too tempting?
Then I’m praying I’ve found a reg…..lol.
I asked another punter who claims great prices for some detail but get crickets.
Hey Yella, these shops where FS is 4 pines. Any details, I mean at least you can give us a suburb and we can work out the likely candidates.
Which shops are asking $80-$90 for an hour? To me if they are asking that much it screams rip off and I'm not even considering it.

Any details or hints APWWG or are you just trying to win the pissing contest?Quote:

105 Wellington Rd is $80.
Smile is $80.
I think Time is $80? There was a stuff up with the room, so got my money back and walked. Pretty certain I handed over $80?
There’s a new shop in the City, on Mary St, I think? They wanted $90!!!
Hi 4 Floors, I'm trying to understand the logic here. If you were happy to spend $50 on the massage in the early 2000s, why the concern over spending $70 now? Given the change in purchasing power of the $ over the past 20 years, $70 or $80 for that matter, is actually cheaper than $50 back then. I think your real, and legitimate gripe is not really the cost of the massage, but rather the quality of the extras.
I've come across the girls who ask "how much am I willing to pay" and my response is "as little as possible". I follow up with "how much do you think your service is worth and what you are willing to do to earn it". What unfolds then is often interesting and at times entertaining, but as they commenced the negotiation process, I feel obliged to negotiate!
i hate when people ask "how much are you wiling to pay" it makes me feel like they are trying to squeeze water out of a stone.Quote:

I wonder what effect the legalisation of the shops will have on pricing? There is obviously a lot of collusion on pricing. I’ve never seen an industry with so much competition and fixed pricing. There must be a lot of crook backs out there to support what seems to be a shop ( or two) in every suburb.
