About 4 years ago, I booked a very reputable provider ( she is based in Phoenix ). I had seen her before and with her pedigree I trusted her when she said that she needed help to cover some bills and asked if I could pay her now ( our booking was for the following week ). I did advance her the $1200. She canceled her trip and swore that she was going to send me the money via western union but never did. She said that she was going to rebook her trip in a couple of weeks so I waited and that did not happen... 4 years later and after many correspondance, I still have not seen the money ( I am not delusional, I know that I will never see it ). Lesson learned, I was young and stupid and felt that someone's reputation was enough to trust...Sadly I will now never pay a deposit or advance any money. There are too many opportunities of getting ripped off and $1200 is no pocket change to me.  

I will also say that being a local here in Vegas sucks. I used to travel to Vegas quite a bit and always had fun so I was very excited to move here. Unfortunately being here has made it difficult to see the lady. You have the ones that do not see locals or would not come to your residence ( which I can understand ) but at the high rates we are paying in the city, I cannot add the extra $150-$200 for a room. It just gets too expensive on top of the $600 but at least I understand that a lady might not be comfortable visiting me in my apartment so I can live with that. What's been very irritating is the fact that 85% of my confirmed dates have either no showed or cancel at the very last minute and again we are talking about top rated ladies. I get it.. some big player on the strip has probably called you to book you for the night which make my 1 hour date sound like pocket change to you...but a little bit of respect and professionalism goes a long way....I have never no call/ no show on anyone. That's just plain rude and inconsiderate. It is sad that my bday is coming up and rather than taking a change and booking with a lady here i am considering going out of town to insure that I will indeed have fun..oh well that's a good opportunity to also visit a new city

There are several ladies I know that travel to LV.  They see some tourists, but have indicated that the vast majority of clients are locals.

I was a total dumbass!

I had just flown in to Vegas and I had dates set up with reputable providers a couple days into my trip, but I wanted a little something.

Needless to say I was tired, called some random chick on another board.

She came in fast talking and before I knew it I was upsold for a ridiculous amount and she was gone in 20 minutes.

I was laying on the bed thinking WTF just happened, I just got ripped off!!!

Lesson learned.

I had a provider fall asleep under me.  

I guess I need to work on my technique.  
(actually they had been traveling and got in late or so the story went)

My worst

Top tier provider who is active on this board. Gets in my hotel room announces she does not thinks we are compatible grabs the envelope in the bathroom and leaves.  Bye Bye to $800 BTW she still runs ads every week on TER. Please don't PM me

cancel by her another time.... I should have known better but that cancelation turned out to be the best thing to happen to me.....I landed on a very hot crap table that night that I was able to do an all nighter with Laura Bardot the following night.....they don't call me hpygolky for nada.

It was my friend's birthday and we were sitting around bored so we decided to each write something to do on a piece of paper and put it in a cup, then have the birthday boy pick one. Someone had written "get a hooker" and that's the one he ended up picking. So we made a few phone calls and found two girls but they didn't have transportation, so we offered to pick them up out front of a bar they mentioned.  

Anyway, we show up to pick them up and as they are getting in the car one of the girls asks if everything is cool, and I just jokingly say "as long as you don't have a tiny gun in that tiny purse" and my friend for some reason just freaked out and was like "WHAT! You have a gun in your purse!". Things instantly went crazy after that. Everyone started yelling about a gun..lol My other friend was yelling to just take off, but one of the girls lunged from the back seat and grabbed the gear shift and said "you aint going anywhere". Now I see about 5 guys coming from the parking lot towards our car so I pull her hand off the gear shift and just floor it, both back doors are still open and every one is yelling about a gun/no gun while these guys are running after us. I get about a block away and skid to a stop so my one friend could jump out and drag these girls out of the car, they didn't want to get out, my guess was to slow us down until those guys came. We finally kick the girls out of the car, my friend jumps back in as I'm driving off and the guys are about 200 feet away at this point and running full speed. Mind you, all this happened in about a minute or less.

Totally true story but this was NOT in Vegas and it was a long time ago

i was driving around town on memorial day week end and saw that Sapphire Pool was open, and they had a big sign outside CHARLIE SHEEN POOL PARTY TODAY. So I say WTF , check it out, there are bound to be some hot babes there. So I get to the door and the bouncer says $100. I said the sign says $50. He says that was four hours ago, the closer we get to 5 pm, when Charlie Sheen shows up, the more the entry fee. So I pay the fee. The first thing I see are waitresses in bikini's holding lollipops covering their face, but at the end of the "pop" was a picture of Charlie Sheen !.  At the end of the pool the have VIP area, and Cabana with big sign that says Charlie's Cabana. Go go dancers were dancing topless on platforms (with pasties). And a wide assortment of people were by the pool, drinking and dancing. 5 o clock comes and goes. No Charlie. A no show. However, Hugh Hefners' new wife of the day was there, and she posed for a few photo shots. Then a stripper came up to me and said how about a lap dance. I said do we get our $100 back. She said NO but 'my lap dances are lot better than Charlie Sheen would do " I forgot to mention the crowd got rowdy and demanded their money back, but bouncers said no "look it's playboy playmate (forget the name), Hugh Hefner's wife".

I was in Ohio for work many, many, many years ago (pre-TER)  and extremely horny so I found an agency in the phone book Mistake #1. I spoke to the gal and we agreed to a credit card deal of $300 for the hour. Mistake #2. The girl arrives (I asked for a Latina and an African American girl walks in--attractive, though) and immediately a 6'3", 250 pound dude walks in after her to get my card info. He leaves and stays outside. She starts talking and says I need to give mer more money. So I go out (the dude is still sitting in the hall) and get more money. Mistake #3. I get back, give her another $200 and she tells me she is going to change and that I should get comfortable and tune the radio to 97.9 FM. I get comfortable, and start fumbling with the radio, only to discover there is no 97.9 in the area. I finally realized what had happened, checked in the bathroom, and she's gone. She'd slipped out under the cover of the static of the radio.

The dude was gone, too.

I was going to call the agency back, but by then I had already made a shitload of mistakes and decided to use my head for once that evening. I canceled the credit card--they hadn't even charged it yet, so that was good, at least.

Total newbie story and totally true.
