Interested to see if my fellow hobbyists are now seeing few providers due to pricing inflation?  For example if a provider previous charged $600 would you then see her at her new rate of $800?  

Also how often are my fellow hobbyists making the plunge of seeing providers that are charging over $1K?

Negative a $200 increase my ass. Nothing at all over $300 unless she has a full bush then I may go up to $400. Totally unnessesary to go over 4! If you guys know of a full bush pm me!

Most of the gals I see are repeats, and I get grandfathered for long periods of time at their old rates, though over the course of decades, we do settle on higher, though much lower than everyday, rates.

 
For new gals I see, I do pay their rates, even though these are a lot higher than what they used to be, and I have not cut back.

 
Recently I did see some $1K/hr gals.   They are worth it for sure.   But my budget does limit such extravagance.

The Boston market seems to have split into roughly 3 tiers.  

800 + for the best providers including some touring indies. This has certainly been the growing segment.  

400 - 600 which are the "value providers"...a shrinking number of these but still some gems out there. Also includes some local agencies and bookers.  

Bottom end - think STG and other similar risky sites.  

Aside from that, there is the rising tide of sugar babies but that's a whole different story / market that I'm not very familiar with.  

The current inflation wave will only make things worse.

Honestly, less, a lot less.  The girls who are 500+ are really not worth that premium for the most part to be honest.

There is no value in the most expensive ladies, their service at those prices are diminishing returns to be honest.
I do not see value in it and can see similar for less.  

Soon the market will not be able to sustain all those women at those prices so one of two things will happen.
They will either lower their rates or stop doing what they do.

All the best everyone

Hey Mr fisher, would you please please break it down what a provider at 1k/hr and someone around the 500-700 range their differences are. I'm currently seeing girls around 600 and below and whether through indies or agencies. Just been finding gems. I'm always looking for a unicorn that just does it for me from start to finish. Wonderimg if thats something I can find in that range. Also assuming dinner dates and out in the town is highly expected. Not one to do that. Just want to have my fun.  

Thank you in advance

The Hyundai looks nice and runs well, has everything you need.   In fact, I drive one.

 
But someone I know well has a V10 Audi.   They let me drive it.   It was incredible, but costs so much more.

 
And so, a $500/hr gal looks nice, isn't too old, does everything I'd like them to, and makes me happy.

 
But the $1,000 gals are DDG, youngish, have super toned bodies, know how to make my body purr.   Just everything you can imagine and more.

 
But who can afford them on a regular basis?    

 
Alas, such is life.

 
I think it was Oscar Wilde who said that one of the biggest tragedies of life would be for the exceptional to become commonplace, so perhaps I should feel happy that I can only afford high end gals very occasionally.

Wilde is a fav. What he actually wrote on tradegy:

There are only two tragedies in life: one is not getting what one wants, and the other is getting it.

I have never and will never pay More than 400.  I don’t care who they are, no ass is worth $1000, especially when these girls are using heavily modified pictures.  

I have drastically cut my play time since even junkies seem to be charging $300.  Add in deposits and intrusive screening and I am out

Funniest thing is if you follow a lot of girls on Twitter they are all complaining about how slow they are. I wonder why.  

I haven’t seen inflation kick in yet. Considering $300-400 has been the hourly rate for a long time over 5 years. It has gone up to $500-600 an hour for top level or agency girls but the quality is better    
I think online services have increased prices more than actual price inflation. Online provides a safe environment to sell the same goods and since nots taxable income than there needs to be a higher price point.  
It’s still the oldest profession out there and there will never be a shortage of supply which keeps the prices down.

But the prices aren't down. They are sky-high. If you go on Tryst there are ladies (God knows if they are legit, or some hairy guy in Slovenia) who have no reviews asking 600/700 an hour. Do you not see that? I agree that the online cam shows and whatnot are giving providers other income streams that are easier and more comfortable than meeting guys in person. But the pricing now seems insane.

All of your points are well taken-everything has gone up in price. But scale and scope matters. Let's say you have a hairdresser who charged you $50 (just as an example) and then raised the rate to $62. That's a noticeable increase, but probably not so much to change hairdressers. But an escort who previously had a $350 hourly rate, and raised her rate to $550 or $600-that's a much bigger nut, so to speak. Providers don't "owe" hobbyists a fair/reasonable rate-whatever the market will bear. It's not so much that provider rates have increased-it's the extent to which they have increased.  

Anything beyond food, shelter, clothing is a luxury. But some of us are getting priced out. And the number of scammers has grown faster than the virus.

I for one get very excited when I see Jezebel post in our area because I think it means she's coming to visit. I saw her once years ago in a different state and our paths have not crossed since. Alas, it doesnt look like shes gracing Boston with her presence. She is an excellent example of a provider who's higher rate is justified by an outstanding service. Just read her reviews.  

Inflation effects the entire market space, it just varies by how much depending on the commodity. Costs are up everywhere so I would expect to see provider prices go up. This is the freest of markets so the amount they go up is not going to be regulated by anything more than what the market can bear. If a provider is priced too high all you can do is not see her or see someone with more appropriate pricing and the first provider will either lower her price if she's not getting business or move on. Clearly there are enough men supporting higher end escorts at higher prices (especially if they are traveling and incurring higher costs) otherwise they would have been priced out by now.  

Unfortunately in this business there is a pay to play factor that could allow a sub par provider to simply ride this wave and charge an unwarranted price, but we are discussing this issue on the best platform to spread that knowledge. Now guys can share their cautionary tales and stop the spread of providers cheating the ignorant. However, asking why an expensive escort is better is kind of silly. Just imagine the experience being better in the many different ways these various encounters could go. Many people don't like champagne and caviar, but the price doesn't seem to go down. That's because some people love it. The only way to find out is to save up and give it a try. Maybe you were right all along and know you dont need to spend the extra money. Maybe your reality is shattered as you reach new unimaginable heights. Either way, while you're free to complain, it's not going to get you champagne at apple juice costs.  

An intimate encounter with another human being is about one of the most complex and varied "products" or services I could think of. So I would think it doesn't take a lot of imagination to conceive of how some might be more valuable than others. If you're thinking in terms of like "a blowjob is a blowjob, bro" well that's just ridiculous. There's some ppl that would drive to the further sub shop bc they know the chicken cutlet is better over there. There's some that don't care. Thats fine, but it's crazy to think the other group doesn't exist and try to shame the other shop into lowering their prices.

I read  your post-twice. It was pretty tedious. The sum of your message: some people like "A," and other people like "B." Stunning insight. Thank you.

Prices over $400 become difficult for us married guys. First affordability: I make $150k per year but have a mortgage, wife, and kids.  If I want to see a provider every month or two that adds up.  Second and perhaps more important is that we need to hide our spending and accumulate cash.  I can stash away 20 or 40 here and there but not 100 a week- my wife will catch on.   So when I can get a massage with happy ending and full touching for 120, it's tempting and hard to justify spending 500 on an escort.  And I have no idea how married/family guy could ever pay $1000 for an escort.

On one side you have providers that all think they are worth the same price as an 20 something all natural provider with an hour glass figure or guys with functioning dicks dealing with the slowing down economy

You talked about being $400/hour a month or two ago…

Yup, that’s what one would do with a deposit wired to them.. keep it. Hopefully all of them are keeping it and not just “a lot” and “probably”. Maybe you mean many are burning hobbyists who send them a deposit? You claim to be highly educated, so use your words.

Also, “costly” providers didn’t just start to pop up in the last year or two. I remember $400+ per hour girls well over a decade ago. You could say there are more now, but everything inflates in price over time.

A lot of what you say now is loaded with “likely” and “probably” or it’s flat out BS. What exactly is the point of most of your posts because you talk a whole lot but you aren’t really saying anything.

Wow, sounds like someone is angry. If you don’t have anything good to say about a post or person maybe its just best to say nothing. You sound like a very negative and angry guy. Have some coffee and chill.

I kept my rates the same. I do provide great service but I can't justify raising them. I an older provider, I have no problem getting, I do choose to be low volume because my condo is my incall. I'm not sure what I'll do when I start traveling.

Let the guys come to you.

Not angry at all. Just purposely trolling her when I can for making racist comments.

I haven't cutback, I've stopped. You are just encouraging this behavior if you "save up and see less providers". Canada's borders are open, btw....
