In the example you describe you are paying the higher rate for their looks. It does not imply more discretion or fun, just more physical perfection.

The younger and more hardbodied tend to charge more but sometimes the performance and the personality are not quite the same as other gals whose looks are not their equal.

We each decide what is most important to us but I side with performance every time.

Any rule of thumb?  False premise?

I ask this question as most girls and agencies locally charge about the same, within a small range of deviation.  I came across an agency, however, that has a handful (say 10-12) girls that are complete stunners, easy 9-10s on my scale of beauty.  Young, thin, beautiful.  Their hourly rate, however, is 3-4 times what most other pricing I see locally and on TER for the local area where I am located.  Notably, though, not much in the way of TER reviews.

So I ask myself, are these girls somehow so exclusive that their pricing is reasonable, and their low level of review is a by-product of their cost.  In addition to appearance, with this higher cost, does there come greater security and discretion, more luxury or glamour, more of this or that . . . or is is just a higher price?  If money is not an object, is higher price indicative of higher quality?

I know this is a very general question, but perhaps there are some interesting thoughts.  

Thanks all!

The fact is... the higher the donation/rate means the less guys the girl sees! The majority of guys either cant afford to or wont spend above a certain amount on hobbying! Also if a girl makes more off of one session the less guys she will need to see etc. I personally charge higher than most and this allows me to be selective with the guys I do see. I dont need to see all of them. If I get a bad vibe or can tell our personalities will clash or anything is sketchy I will let the guy know and not see him. I dont know anything about agencies though... this is just my insight on the topic.

Quality to Price Ratio is something that is up to each individual to determine. What seems to be the most telling item here is that, if the ladies were of such a high performance level to justify 3-4x the going local rate, I would think that there would be some TER reviews about them and their performance.

I'd stay away until they accumulate some TER reviews (unless they're going through women at such a rate that they can't accumulate enough good reviews) or look at other non-agency (i.e., independents) reviewed here. Bottom line for the newbie is to stay with well-reviewed providers until you build a base of experience. Maybe by then there will be some reviews for the agency women you're looking at.

This is my philosophy also. I charge higher rates than some. But this means I see less men and you aren't my 3rd appointment of the day. I see 1 guy a day...

I also charge more because I feel I give a better experience than most cheap providers. I don't clock watch,I'm actually kind and genuine. I look to please above all else. Not to mention I will almost never let a guy leave "un-satisfied"...I work until the job is done  I feel all this(plus my beauty and expertise) make me more suited to charging a higher rate.

Bottom line is you know what you are worth. Accepting less is frustrating,so don't!

sometimes a total knock out will charge more, this is not an indication that you'll enjoy your time with her. Often girls like that won't conceptualize the importance of providing great service. There accustomed to getting by on looks alone. Isabel #99353

This is a market driven business. Rates in each city usually fall into a range. And as others have posted ladies set rates sometimes because they are low volume and with excellent reviews can charge more.
Hobby at a level than you can afford. Don't assume the more you spend the better the experience.
I've been with escorts that charge $$ and they are every bit as good as escorts who charge $$$$.
Do your research, reviews especially the juicy details. Good luck

There are plenty of B&S agencies here in NYC. The pics are all models, but of course the lady that you get isn't.

a simple answer for me.
No correlation! (of course, it's personal experinece basis)

I think that you are right to track the going rate in your local area.  Stay away from anyone too low...  either a sting or an upsell.  As you correctly noted, there are small variation expected in this typical range.  

I have noticed a few that are very high...  some are stunners & can get the price because of their beauty.  The performance is often no better or even less than others in the normal price range.  They work less but enough that they generate the income they require.  

I have no interest in a Ferrari with a blown up engine.  Beauty & performance both need to be considered.

PS Be wary of stunning pictures...  they may not be current or the actual provider.

Well I must say, this is one my my thoughts . . . am I paying for looks alone?  Kind of like buying a Jag or Rover.  As physically appealing they may be, I need service and emotional connection, too.

Thanks, all, for the responses.

There was this certain dancer at the strip club I sometimes go to. She was the most stunning stripper I have ever seen. She was definitely Playboy Playmate of the year material. If she told you she had been, you would believe her.

Anyway, the private dance I paid for was by far the worst I ever received. She stayed a good safe distance from me, didn't talk to me, or even look at me. She just looked around the room, obviously bored. If she had been wearing a watch, she surely would have been staring at it. I guess she felt she was hot and naked and close to me, so I should thank my lucky stars. It was so cold and detached that I felt insulted instead of exhilarated. Of course she sold many private dances because of her looks, and instantly forgot about me. When she approached me to sell a dance after that first time, I almost laughed at her. I would rather flush my money down the toilet.

I’m sure you’ll get a lot of differing views on this one.

While there’s certainly not a firm correlation between price and quality I’ve seen that for the same city low prices usually means low quality.  It doesn’t seem to hold as well on the up side:  paying way over market doesn’t guarantee you a much better experience.  Higher than normal price usually means something is “better”, but what that thing is may not match what you care about the most.

My general observation, higher price comes from one of three things:
--Super hot young (sub 22) looks
--Super overall performance, usually by a woman on her mid 30s
--Super marketing, either using porn star rep or something else to make her “brand” stand out as unique

I can’t tell you if the looks-difference between a 19 y/o playmate and a 27 y/o good looking woman is worth it to you, but the 19 y/o who prices her time at 2x the 27 y/o thinks you will value it that way.  Same with the others.

On average the providers I’ve seen at the upper range (at least for what I’ll pay) have been a little better than those at the mid-low end, but not a huge amount.  My ATF was 220/hr when she was working.  My second favorite (also in the same city) was 400.

How are her reviews?

I mean i've read reviews of girls who are lower priced with from the looks of their reviews were warm, friendly and into what they were doing BUT I've seen the same with more expensive ladies. I've seen reviews of lower priced which with overwhelmingly bad reviews, same with females charged 300 or 400+ an hour and they barely do anything. "Getting what you pay for" can really depend on the girl. 400hr doesn't mean a thing if she will barely touch you.

No, seriously. There are provider that market themselves for the affluent man, and price themselves as such.

What exactly would greater security and discretion be?  I have no idea on what to think on that.

What is more luxury or glamour mean? They wear more expensive clothing? What??? At those prices they most certainly are SHOWN more luxury by theri clients who can afford such.

What is 'this or that' ?  Well certainly they think they are worth more. That's obvious.

But I will tell you what you do get in quality for those super-elite girls. Hairsylist, makeup artists and photographers. Maybe a web designer too. You may also get to talk to a booker.Or be a client of an agency. Money well spent! ha!

Look this is pussy and fucking. What you get from a lady and how good it is will be largely detemined by you. Are you really clean, and are you a true gentleman. Do you genuinely treat her well.

Certainly there are differences in the ladies, but by and large, you can have a fantastic experience with any of the well reviewed ladies, regardless of their price.

I don't know about your area but where I am at there are plenty of absolutely gorgeous women avaiable at standard rates. There is only one woman on my bucket list that is $400 hr.

Here's what a very high-priced NY escort said about her pricing---When someone pays her $1,250 an hour, he gets exactly what he would for $200, her rate when she started out. The difference is psychological.

Well there have it! Right there in front of you.

When I spend $250, it sure feels like $1000
