I'd imagine they are hoping that you're hard up for cash, and aren't getting regular appointments. The laws of economics are always in play, and I'm sure there are providers that will feel a little desperate and take a low ball offer. I'm not saying I agree with the practice or condone it, but it is what it is. I will keep an eye out for a special from a lady I wouldn't normally see, but I wouldn't waste your time and insult you with an offer like that.Some of us have enough respect for you ladies, but I think quite a few don't.

I wonder how this clown would feel if his boss asked him to perform his job at a reduced or discounted rate.

Guys who do this target younger providers thinking you're inexperienced. They're probably the same guys looking for $200 providers on BP.

I think it is downright insulting when people do that.  

He is trying to show you right away he is better than you, that he can control you, and has
no respect for you at all.

.....like a 15min. rate or a much lower donation (which is especially annoying when you're already incredibly reasonable/moderately priced to begin with). They are either trying their luck because it's worked or they just enjoy the thrill of asking.  When a guy you've never met before insists on a lower rate because he wants to become a regular is a red flag to 99% of the time lol. I don't put it most of my ads my rates are non-negotiable because I assume most know better but I do have it on my site.

there are tons of them out there,just want to see if u will
give in,NEVER NEVER,they are just cheap,they got the $$$
but they just want to take advantage of u,they just don't
deserve the good quality and service,like what they all
say U GET WHAT U PAY FOR

That is what I did. Found another position with a huge increase.

I agree with the prior posters, but 1)he may be one of those people who thinks he can/ should negotiate everything, not limited to the services of providers 2) I bet it has worked for him with a provider before (you did ask "why?")

EVERYTHING is negotiable.

when it says not negotiable in the website,that means not negotiable
not EVERYTHING is negotiable, u get it plain English

You are a fool if you believe legitimacy comes from simply printing a word. Go ahead and pay the MSRP for a car because its printed in English Bubba.

does the word NOT NEGOTIABLE printed in the car sticker price fool

I don't have an issue with someone asking if I can do something got them if we know each other. Everyone hits tough patches financially.. My issue is when its someone who had never seen me before, thinking that they can tell mewhat they think my rate should be and expecting me to just give it rip them! I feel my rates are more than fair .

I get this a lot .... "well I plan on being a regular so you can you give me a deal?  
Lol. Like I believe that youare gonna come and see me again and I haven't even meet you once!

Sometimes that is true and sometimes it is not.

The only thing I'm good at negotiating is the price of a car. Other than that, I hate it. I never negotiate, I just pay the price listed. I don't care if people think that makes me a sucker or whatever. I won't say that every experience I've had in this industry has been awesome, but I've never felt ripped off. Some people like to negotiate, some don't.

and by regular, more than every few months and I know their situation. In fact my regulars are at least once a month.

What about when one rate is listed in the ad, and even when you talk the girl states one rate - non -negotiable, but when you get there she upsells a bunch of things?    

Why? Because people will try to get away with anything they can!!! Not everyone will do this but some will try. I feel if someone does this its because they don't feel just yet that you are worth what your asking for... so I say bump them!! Get past the "nos" to get to the "yeses" keep smiling don't sweat the small stuff!
