Question for all the providers:  
If a client wants to buy clothing for a provider that they have an appointment scheduled for. Would you accept it prior to the appointment or only at the time of the appointment?

What do you mean exactly with "Would you accept it prior to the appointment?"  I tend to buy providers outfits based on the measurements they give on their site, but I tend to surprise them since most don't have wishlists.  All of them wear them for me

To clarify, I ment give the provider the outfit prior meeting for your actual appointment (a hr, day, week etc). The logistical details would be different depending on the client/provider relationship.  
I hope this clarifies the question.

Someone pm'd suggesting a gift card, that makes the most sense.

I know a girl who was very popular 2 years ago but seemed to fall off the face of the earth in the last year but she used to tell me stories that guys would buy her clothes and stuff all the time - for payment. So they didn't give her money, they gave her stuff.
  As she put i "I can't pay rent with clothing and gifts"

I think that's a great question and it's one that is relative to each provider.  

I guess it would depend on what you're wanting exactly: do you want them in the clothing upon arrival or after you get there.  

If you want the provider wearing the article(s) of the clothing before you arrive you may want to get it to them early by sending it or proving the monies necessary to get it. Your options for this, I would think would mainly be sending an e-gift card if they do not have a wishlist available, like Amazon or Delivery Code. Or,  if you bought it in person & they have a PO Box (& you've been screened), sending it to their PO Box is an option.  

If you don't mind the provider changing into it for you upon your arrival, then I would imagine you would just bring it to the appointment.  

I hope this all helps!

Each lady is different.  Some would have you get it and bring it with you.  Some have a wishlist for favorite online merchants, others don't.   In some cases, different merchants clothing fits differently so it may be best for the provider to order it herself, in which case an eGift card would be ideal.    The only thing I would add is if you bring something, be discreet about it.  No flashy packages.

Have fun!!
