...a generalization about Phila local providers...?
- over priced?
- substandard?
- known for B&S?
I won't take it personally, just unfortunate that some might jump to the conclusion that Philly provides all fall into the above categories.
Have a great weekend!

Keep focused guys. Alot of unreviewed ladies last week, rates sneaking up. A premium for what??? The fact they didn't go on vacation?
Providers can set any rate they want. I set my own rate. If the asking rate is outside my range, I don't bother to call even if she is hot. There is no reason to pay above $250 as this is the prevailing rate for top notch ladies in our neighbors Baltimore, DC and mid Jersey. Don't let your impulse drives you to call. Wait for the right lady with the right rate to come to our town.
Actually, the rate in Philly has dropped a bit from a year ago. $$1/2 providers are still available in our town from time to time, but book early because they get all the calls and booked up quickly.
you need to know your market...
Having lived in NYC, Miki is great and worth it, a great person.
I never aim to get the cheapest.
I aim to get pleased.
BEWARE of Cash 'n Dash visitors !!
If it sounds to good.......
We ARE the market. 350 is a lot of money. If u think you can get it, more power to ya.
I for one rarely pay that much unless the girl gives me reason to really, really want the session.
Recent newbies to these parts are in the 250 range. This is not NYC or SF where every guy who lives in the downtown area makes half million a yr.
You want quality pussy but at a bargain price. No reviews, no $$$. Review ladies should be spared the whining on her prices. Just my .02
I feel you're actually saying two different things here. Ladies with very good reviews should be able to fetch higher fees. Problem is with the number of either non-reviewed ladies OR those with consistent 6's and 7's asking for $300+
I just took a family of 4 for a full day on the ski slopes for less than many of these ladies charge for an hour of service. One hour with 'quality' as you mentioned is OK, but when those fees head toward being the minumum standard - problem.
~this doesn't sound good. I've always enjoyed visiting the City of Brotherly love and was considering meeting new friends. (* This makes a girl wonder!) ..... ~Tori
Not sure I understand- a quick check on TER says you're at $250 and you have pages of 8's thru 10's. Stellar reviews at a reasonable price? Sign me up! It's the continued rise to $300+ for relative unknowns that's concerning. Not sure if Philly is the same as other cities, but we sure have our share of scams around here, hence the caution. It's not personal by any means 
Everytime somebody mentions prices, they take it the wrong way. It's the UNREVIEWED providers I'm complaining about with the higher prices. Someone like you with the reviews to back you up is obviously not the person I am complaining about. Nobody is declaring war on the established reliable ladies. In fact, please --- do visit. The locals situation, with a very few exceptions, leaves alot to be desired. In my opinion, a high-end provider like you is always welcome here. B/C me, I think you forgot one of your client's (from last January in Hotlanta) handle. [email protected]

your rates are very ok by me! the 2 hour especially!
Mostly for BigDaddy: Feel free to throw the big ones away. Last time I looked, $$$ was still a good chunk. That's reserved for ladies with reviews.

I only said why complain about the establish ladies prices. The ladies with no reviews should be handle with a long handle spoon.. Let someone else lose their money on them.

Looks like we said the same thing different ways.
I don't think anyone here is complaining about the established provider with great reviews. It is all the non reviewed and most likely B&S girls that keep coming to our fair city and are asking $$$+ That Nick is complaining about. $$$ isn't cheap but it is the going rate for a good and well reviewed provider. Just continue to do your homework and you will find great providers. Think with the big head and dont listen to the little one.
BTW ... BDJ and Cigi both have girls here this week they both are well reviewed. Lets treat them right so they can continue sending their ladies to us.
"Cigi" though?? Thanks, Chris
They get booked up pretty quick in D.C. I will see Bianca on Wednesday. Most of the girls has good reviews.
Hey, you are DC based which is flooded with providers. Going back to your 100s of threads and reviews in the DC board, you've seen only cheap providers. $$1/2 is the standard rate in DC which is cheap in Philly standard.

I don't see a lot of local ladies because of my job location. Long time since I seen a lady for $$1/2..lol
I have to agree that 300+ is high especially for an un-reviewed lady but that is the going rate. I have grown to except that a $300 incall date with a nice lady is the best you will do these days. Travelling ladies charging more or local ladies charging that plus a room simply don't get my business...but there must be plenty of guys paying it or the rates would quickly drop. I do pay more on occasion but rarely see the lady more then once when their rates go above 300. While I may choose not to see them I certainly cannot blame the ladies for charging every bit as much as the market will allow.
can and sometimes do get a tad more. I have to agree- ladies with no reviews and only a presence on one of the "malls" drive me nuts. $$$$ for an unreviewed lady AND you are out the hotel room? I recently ran into that. Told the lady that she was not going to do well - especially since I can see a porn star for less! and the PS is very nice and fun to be with! so please perspective.
With respect to other cities and Philly being considered cheap! Washington DC - last time I looked they are between $$ and $$$. less than philly. NYC - $$$1/2 Houston? Escorts are cheaper than the lapdances in Houston - so go figure -
We in philly have, in my opinion, an unfair rep. What can we do to spread the word that we are actually stand-up guys? tired of the rap that we take.... Simple truth is we have a lot of B&S types both visiting and "home grown" - do they provide the unfair view? Because most of us won't bow to their unfair practices - something to think about.
How do you go from board to board harassing people..Do you own part of TER? Are you a rogue Moderator? Who are you?? Why do you get on my nerves??
You call us cheap first when you're not even from our area. An average Philly guy probably spends more per session than an average guy from DC or Boston simply because we rely more on visiting than locals. Visiting have to charge higer rate because they have to pay for hotel and travel. Booking visiting requires a lot more home work than just pick up a phone to call a reputable local. Unfortunately, our local choices are limited, over priced, substandard or known for B&S. Your DC area is flooded with providers with abundant choices in all price ranges, so every John gets what he wants and no one complaints. I happen to know your market well because I hobby there often on biz trips.
Why are you harping on D.C rates?? I think I know D.C pretty well. Once again I don't see a lot of the local ladies in D.C. I don't drive to work so my hobby time is during the day. I metro over to D.C to play. I pay just as much as you guys do. So quit whining about "abundant choices in all price ranges" in D.C.
BTW; my original post was to Nick and I think we were trying to say the same thing.
"I only said why complain about the establish ladies prices" WITH REVIEWS. Nothing more nothing less.
Not getting into a pissing contest with you Tigerguy.
No one is whining. Tigerguy us stating the fact which I agree. It's easy for you to make cheap shot in a market you know absolutely nothing. You're from the nation's capital with the highest escort supply per capita, so choice is never an issue.
and advise providers there to raise the rate.
They'll just raise our taxes to help offset the higher rates. 
thirsty
(Sorry, bigdaddy...just doing my best to fan the flames. I'd like to think that I'm the most hated mod on TER for a reason.
You know the longer this thread stay on front page,the madder these guys get. I hope this don't go into the weekend..lol
BTW; I will stay away from the most hated mod comment..lol
Can we just have some fun man..Didn't mean to offend you guys. I think we all want the same thing quality ladies for a decent prices.

Providers can't raise rate at will or else all will be charging $$$$. If DC rates go up, so will Philly because many providers from DC tour Philly regularly. For selfish reason, I don't want to see rates in DC to go up because I hobbied in DC as much as in Phill.
To hobby..Ok; I drive to Md to see my ATF, about a four hr trip in all..lol

Sorry to bring you the bad news, but I for one will not back off my claim that the locals scene in Philly is substandard. Why do so many reputable travellers like to come here?? The number of good reliable locals is rather small. Who are they? How big of a board fight do you want to see?
-- Modified on 1/20/2006 10:26:53 AM
No one is asking you to back off of your claim. I can only comment on my own practices. I cannot answer the question about why so many girls who tour visit here either except that they travel to more places than Philly as well.
Board fight? Not my gig -- I'm all grown up. I just found it curious and a bit sad to read the "blanket" generalizations regarding Philly providers.
I hate to respond to this because I will be accused for whining. But I like to state the facts based on my hobbying experience in Philly and other cities I visited.
B&S - Yes, Isabella of Philly and Magical Encounter are known local B&S agencies and they even export scam to our neighbors. To be fair, we have a good share of visiting B&S.
Substandard - to be fair, we have high quality local providers, but they tend to be pricy. For the reasonably priced providers, few are up to my standard. You pay for what you get.
Over priced - Yes, from the client point of view, certainly providers will disagree. The current going rate of locals in Philly is 1/2$ to $ higher than in mid Jersey, Boston, Baltimore and DC but about even with NY. Visiting rates vary from time to time but tend to moderate the local rate because many came from our lower rate neighbors. This is why visiting are stealing clients from locals. Why do I have to support buying locals if the locals give us bad deal.

No guy with any brains wants to up the prices.
Wake up, we're wise to the scammers.
