This business can be so knuckleheaded. Frequently rates are posted in terms like one hundred seventy dollars for 1/2 half hour and two hundred twenty dollars for the full hour. The 1/2 hour is more expensive than the full hour (5.60 per minute vs. 3.60 per minute). But when you want to do an hour and one half, which is much more like a good time to my way of thinking, there is no one and 1/2 half hour rate. All that happens is you pay for the hour at the hour rate and the extra half at the half hour rate. Since I know that the 1/2 is a worse deal that the full hour, I always limit myself to one hour with the typical provider and extend to 2 hours with the exceptional ones (perhaps 3 persons I know who can go for two hours and stay fully in the groove the whole time).

WAKE UP, WILLYA !!! This business needs a one and 1/2 hour rate that makes sense !!! Going from $3.60 per minute for my hour to
$4.60 per minute for my hour and 1/2 is completely backwards pricing logic. You want to encourage your customer to spend more by offering a BETTER per minute price for the hour and 1/2, like $3.30 per minute (multiplied by 180 minutes= $297, so round it up to an even $300 and it begins to make sense)

For every guy that will spring for the extra half on a whim, there's ten who know better than to throw their money at a bad deal.
