Do you have an absolute rate range when seeking a provider? You won't see someone over X dollars... or under Y?
When setting my rates, being near the top of most ceilings.. without tipping over it, was pretty important to me. I certainly didn't want to be near the floor :/ my rates allow me to meet my monthly income quota without having to work to excess.
I imagine that I'd have more clients if I dropped my rates a bit, but unless that translated to significantly more income, it wouldn't be worth it to me.
Share your ceiling and floor numbers if you'd like (informal poll), and share whether or not you ever go over or under them, and if it's been worth it to you when you have.
.. Without one I would get into serious financial trouble, however I will not share it.
...I won't go over $400/hr. I have never gone over it. I don't have an amount I won't go below though I've never spent less than $200 and don't expect I ever will. I've never given a "floor" amount any consideration. There are certain things I require/expect. I won't get those for less than $200/hr. I'm in a very good area with a lot of excellent ladies to choose from. I'm aware from reading the boards I wouldn't be able to find what I want for $200 in many areas.
but it can vary for a number of reasons. For example, I like longer sessions, and if the multi-hour session is a good deal, I will go for that despite a high hourly rate.
I don't have a formal floor, but seldom do I see a provider I'd care to meet for under $250/hr.
Should someday I come into much more money than I have today, I have no doubts that my ceiling would go up somewhat
i think that you will find answers varying by region. What is considered average in Boston, Chicago or NY is probably high-ish in Dallas or DesMoines.
While I do not have an absolute ceiling (have dropped several $K on one occasion), I give some thought about ROI starting at $500/hr (did I mention that I am on the east Coast corridor?).
In terms of floor, well we are guys and will fuck anything with a hearbeat, right? Not really; quality commands a price and I let the market set my floor.
I travel to a lot of different countries, but I don't think spending $30 in Ecuador or $100 in Costa Rica are relevant to this conversation, but while in the US, I can't remember paying less than $200 hr and I rarely find any need to spend more than $300. Of course I live in Dallas and before Texas I spent over a decade in Atlanta where there really is no need to spend more.
Now if I lived in NYC, LV, or even Chicago or DC, I suppose I would have to accept the fact that rates tend to be a bit higher, but in the market that I live in, unless it's a very special woman, I really don't see any cost/benefit to spending more, and the sub $200 price point gets you some rather sketchy women that I would prefer NOT to spend any time with.
Do I ever go above or below these thresholds? Yes I do, but I rarely find it worth it when I do. There are simply more $300 beautiful women in this city than I will ever be able to see, so why should I change what works so well for me?
This is so disheartening to read 
The women need the guys to make that connection to get dripping wet...I read that somewhere.
Not to mention the OTHFBC members need multi-hours complete with gifts.
You must just be a whore mongering pig!!

I bet you a brand new Ferrari would get them dripping wet "down there", now wouldn't it Bob?
and yes, I suppose I am a whore mongering pig, thank you for noticing. I guess it's pure coincidence that your initials are what they are. lol
Seems like many these days are asking for cars. I told one that we have to get married for that, lol. Providers and sugarbabes will push the limits and get away with if guys let them do it.
Pretty please

The most intriguing fee structure I've seen is offered by a very well reviewed woman in North Carolina who charges as follows: 1 Hour 400; each add hr is 100; with 8hrs for 800; and overnights for 1,000. I think this would be great for business if she likes longer dates/free dinners/shows with clients she likes, and as a client I think this gives me all the options I'd want.

It is called pop value ratio. I might shell out a lot of money up front but expect to get many pops afterwords. My average is $100 to $200 per pop. One lady was wanted to spend a lot of times with her customers. Her hourly rate was $200/hour. If you wanted to see her for 3 hours her total amount was $300 for the whole 3 hours which works out to $100/pop for me (I got 3 pops in 3 hours).
I have a sugarbabe on the side that I have just started seeing, spent $1600 on her and only 3 pops so far. We have the understanding that she will see me additional times with the extra charges. I let her know up front that if she does not deliver on the deal I will have to drop her.
People used to ask me what my "pop value" was, going to places like Costa Rica, thinking I suppose that I was some kind of cheap ass like you. Well after doing the math, considering it costs me on average about five grand for a long weekend in CR, unless I was getting 20 "pops" over the weekend, I could have gotten a much better "value? right here at home, if that's what I was looking for.
I still respect the value of a dollar (except when drunk of course) but I really detest cheap, Chicken Little, I hate to tell you this, but you reek of "cheap"
You're just upset that wrps hasn't shared his investment secrets with you.
Oh wait...he does post his PIT (Pussy Investment Trust) info here. Penny stocks are the thing. So is day trading.

That way I too could make "hundreds" of dollars in the stock market too. lol
I live in NYC, while it is absolutely true that we have a lot of beautiful ladies to choose from both local and touring ladies. The prices are definitely higher here. The lowest I have spend is 300 (only once) and the most I have spend is 600 so far (granted I am relatively new ). I think the sweet spot is about 500 to 600. I also notice that touring ladies when they come to NYC their rates would automatically go up. I am guessing is because everything is more expensive here ( hotel, food, cabs, etc ). Or they can just get away with charging us more or be more inline with the local girls. In terms of ceiling in NYC, I most I have seen on TER is 1800/hr.
to live in NYC at the same standard of living as ATL or DFW.... so no surprise that the ladies are also twice (or more) as expensive....
It's their choice to live/work there.
but the budgets of men...
cities like vegas are super affordable to live in, but rates are so high because ladies see tourists. majority of dates are outcall, so ladies do not factor in hotels. but before anyone wants to up and move there, .... lol. the grass is always greener. and also one of the handful of reasons that i left and moved back to maryland. 
In NYC, I pay 3X the amount for an apartment 1/3 of the size I had in Texas. Is it worth it? Right now, ABSOLUTELY. Long term, no way.

$400+ a night for a Courtyard Marriot was a shocker. I can certainly understand why other prices in NYC are as high as they are.
...but here in LA the typical range seems to be between $400-$800/hr. I usually find myself eyeing providers in the $500-$600/hr range.

Ceiling was $800h but those days are behind me primarily because I appreciate repeat visits.
I use to see Russians in LA / Miracle Mile or Studio City for the standard $350 bj/pop but that was at least a couple years ago. Best value is $400 and prefer 90m/120m times though 90% run $500 or slightly higher H
Contacted Bree's agency and told she is a flake and forget it even at 2500 an hour well before she was this successful. I'd donate 5000 H for her or Malena and for both, you don't wanna know
I travel a lot, and certain areas you can get a lot more bang for your buck.
Since I've accepted freebie sessions in the past, that's my floor. Yeah, many of the ladies scream like crazy when they hear about the proverbial freebie, but one gets such an offer every now and then for a variety of reasons. I definitely have a ceiling as well. When you're talking about guys who are stuck in a sexless marriage, the vast majority of the time the idea of two sessions instead of one usually wins out. So if I'm ever tempted by the 1k girls, I'll always go twice for five hundred. Better yet, five for two hundred.
However, in all fairness, I do understand inflation, and my ceiling has gone up over the years. I have what I call a maximum, and a splurge maximum for those rare, special occasions. It's very funny. There is this lady I would love to meet who has been just above my splurge maximum for the last several years. Not long ago I finally raised my splurge rate to match hers. I was getting excited when I found some free time, and I clicked on her ad yesterday. Yeah, you guessed it. Her rate has gone up, yet again, to just above my splurge. That's the way the hobby crumbles sometimes.
i usually fuck her on the floor if she has a mirror on the ceiling..

I'm glad to see that you've upgraded to the walker with brakes. That's progress.
My comfort zone is 180-200 and I don't remember ever going above 250. However, I reallize that one ( or more ) of these days I'll go above that ceiling in order to see the providers I'd like too.
On the flip side, I admit my all time low has been 90/60
D.
Don't work with absolutes. It's all about what you perceive the value to be in each provider. Don't miss out on an excellent providers based on a dollar amount.
my general ceiling is $400/hr and floor is $250, but more important for me are rates posted for QV and HH sessions....not fuckin that with your dick.

in somewhat expensive markets. have spent 600 and it wasn't particularly better. Sweet spot in 350/400' which has been as good if not better than higher price points. Haven't spent less than 300, even in less costly markets, but as a visitor it's harder to find value.
Years ago, back when job applications were on paper, I was working my through an application in the outer office, before an interview. One of the questions was: What is the minimum salary you will accept. I thought long and hard, and finally put a number down that really was close to the minimum I would change jobs for. The next question made me laugh out loud: What is the maximum salary you will accept. I put: "to be negotiated". Eventually, they offered near the minimum, and I turned them down
