This statement was made by a guy whom e-mailed me stating i should charge $300 a hour, that "doing so will give anyone better business" as great amount of men do not see providers whom advertise under $300.  

I visit both under and over $300 providers and haven't found it makes any difference. Some ladies are worth it while others aren't. And some ladies are GREAT DEALS and could easily double or even triple their prices.

Who doesnt love more bang for the buck. but im totaly ok with what ever a provider wants to charge .With in reason .over the last year it seems prices have been creeping up .But its like what would i say to my fav provider if she raise,s her rate Bravo bravo hell i asked to marry her already .

.....it then boils down to execution of the activities plus other qualities.  Price level can be an indicator of how wide the menu is and perhaps an indicator of how high/low volume the lady is.  But, if the menus are exactly the same, then it's the combination of price and quality of the activities being delivered that determines value.   Quality of activities also includes attitude, personality, chemistry, session creativity, etc.  Reviews, emails, texts, websites, Twitter (if available) and my hobby budget all are part of my decision as to whether I think there will be a personal match and good value.  So price is just one of the variables in my search for "...and a good time was had by all".  Thus, the $300 you mentioned is not, in and of itself, attractive or unattractive to me.   Just my $.02 worth.

Was my worst experience, thought it was going to be better, but proven false.
She was cold, and only cared about cash up front, and needed me be gone ASAP, so  
she can get on to the next $300 sucker.

Our favorites and the ones we want to marry (not always the same lol) can charge whatever they want and we'd gladly pay it cuz they've earned that right.

I say to that guy, "ok"  ... with a smile and a wave

that he'll only come visit you if you charge him more than you charge anyone eles? I would shy away from an 80/ hr gal but 200/250 if she provides as stated, well who could complain about that.

So many great ladies that don't charge $300 but could easily do so..Trinity and Elan to name just a few...that guy's loss for sure.

He did state he would not see me due to my lower rate, (funny guy)... I'm not desperate for his business. Like i told another gentlemen If $50 makes him reluctant to spend astonishing time with me then i move on. I don't even want his $300. I'd rather spend memorable time with a true gentlemen then be paid more to be with some jerk wad truthfully. Whats a pleasurable time if someones not enjoyable? I honestly need a closeness/connection with someone i am with, we both should be able to have a spectacular time!

Perfectly stated!!

well spoken well put mirah ! I will be in town     down town most of next week and would love the chance to get to know you .pm me if you would thanks . and to the gentlemen on this board   Bravo and thanks

If all of you ladies who are under this guy's $300 minimum limit wish to send me the difference ($50-$100), I'll pool the money together to go see as many of you as I can. Think of it as an investment... $50 invested gets back $200, $250 whatever you charge...some ladies would unfortunately miss out but...is this a Ponzi???

So some gut won't see you unless you charge more, I sense a lie. Meaning I don't think he's going to see you regardless
If you up your prices tomorrow, he's already decided he won't see you based on some judgment he's made about you and somehow he's connected that to rates.
    I will say I know a ton of FS providers who go by the rule that when their rates are under 300 they tend to get a lot of time wasters, people trying to barter with more deals and more menu options, and some of these guys really come out when that rate is below the magic number, people have all kinds of strange thoughts who knows maybe some people think your easier to persuade if your rates are low.  
That being said, marketed as a massage service 200 -275 is what I'm lead to believe, is a higher end rate, so there in lies the difference.  
    Lastly I would say of course it's your own choice and of course do not give into this guys opinion, this should all be simple happy fun with as little judgement as possible, in other words don't knock anyone for their rates, as we don't know what the circumstance may be.

What he said. Water will always find its level and then recede.

That's making you the well liked lady you are becoming Mariah. You ask, you listen and you decide for your self whats best for you.

Designated driver? or diver?

Gracias dearest, i do my very best. (smiles cheek to cheek)

Then there are those who don't have the right change and stand by the door until you give them the $10 "you owe them".   Like that $10 is going to break them....gees!!!

Is it just me are who the hell else thinks its improper to ask for a discount ? i mean WTF I go into the session hoping i can give her more becuase she went above and beyond the call of duty . No i cant even relate on someone asking for a discount up front .Go rub one out in the corner and send her my way well do dinner then well you know and i will send the discount guy a greeting card telling him what it was like maybe?

I still cant believe (a discount) ? what the hell do they  expect her to do ?only be part of who she is ?only squezze 80 percent with her _-_-_-_  /?   if i ever ask for a discount make me sign up at the seminary !

In the four years and having met more than 60 ladies my experience has been better with the providers who are not high end.  Nothing is true all the time and every person is different.  There are ladies who will put so much effort into a meeting that the higher fee is understandable.  My experience is the price is set not so much on performance as looks and that seems a little crule

Agree 100% about the "don't ask for discounts". If you need to save pennies, best to wait until you can afford it...otherwise you'll be stressing out about the money and will probably think the session wasn't worth it no matter how good/great it is!

Could be a variation on that with the guy being a WK for some provider.  Sounds strange I know but no stranger than other things we have heard and seen here.

Mariah, what a great post and one that I have asked myself.  I set my rates with what I am comfortable in asking and every lovely lady on here has that right to ask how they see fit, amen.  I just wish sometimes if there are those gents out there that include in their evaluation of whom to see based on what rates they ask would understand this and give some gals a chance.  There are a lot more variables to making a decision on what provider to choose for a date, does she have reviews that seem like the provider would make a good match? what does the provider offer as far as menu items that are desirable?Body type? Location? Personality type? I think as a hobbist these would be just few things I would base my decision off of and not just look at the rate first and decide if they are asking a lower rate , they just aren't worth it..  There area also a number of experienced hobbyists out there that were fair writers and reasonably honest with out false embellishment that just don;t write reviews anymore, which I think is rather a shame, like it or not the reviews do help us ladies get a boost every so often if they try their best and perform what their profiles project.  This is a deep topic and could go on and on, so I will leave it at to each their own, every provider has the right to price herself how much they want to and should not be judged either way the scale tips. Thank you for being  so candid to  bring up a topic that I for one have wondered about myself over  the years and one I have had to explain mostly to well meaning people, but I have told them by not asking more , it is not a reflection of my self worthl.You are an intelligent lady to just come out and ask and start a dialog! Hugs! J.

In my case; I just can't afford it. In the last five years I have seen dozens of ladies For less than $200 and usually meet some very nice women. I have also met some real downers but that can happen at any price.

Thank you very sugar, i totally agree rates are just one thing to go off of. I'm glad i could be of help.  

For myself, I am normally not economically able to see someone at the $300 level.  Trust me there have been a few providers that I have seen over the years who I wish I could give a million dollars to because they wee that damn good.  But with economics, my supply does not always allow me to participate.

I'd consider it if you came with references ;

Sometimes these guys are under the false impression that we care if they "never" see us based on something like a disagreement on rates. If they would understand that they do not decide our rates,then they would have fun. Every lady has been told "she should charge less" or " she should charge more". If you want to pay 300+ pay it if not no worries. There is always a guy willing to pay. Those are they guys I want. Quality not quantity.
