Is the post by sexycurvesDC which i thought was very well written and deserved repost here. i'd only add that we have wonderful TJ as our option.

I agree with you this is very well written and does deserve to be re-posted. I missed the original post and want to thank you for bringing it to my attention.

Can we add a special section on the site for this category?

Come on, it is NOT that well written, and the quoted rates of 10 years ago is pure fiction, and it is written only from the point of view of one provider....

In any case, whether you disagree or not, the prices 10-12 years ago was more like $85-$150... NOT $200 (though some may have been that high)! Today, the average price is $300-$400... more than double!

I am sure you would have saved money if you would have spent a little more you get what you pay for.

dude, you can't argue averages unless there's a set to do the math on. there isn't a set, and actually, there isn't anyone to argue with, because you're just a sad, resenting smart woman guy and i like smart women so you'll need to take that gripe and air it with somebody else. compare real estate to time with women in your own thread. oh, you already did. resenting women BEFORE you even get there. (yeah, i read a bunch or your posts, you need anew hobby or a new idea,  your old ones are boring)
discussion welcome old tired arguments are for NESS.

Leave Ness alone. Ness may not be the most diplomatic poster around but his points are valid here. I have nothing to gain by posting this. Never met Ness. I think some providers and hobbyists have it out for him. It is ok to disagree. I didn't think this post of his warranted any kind of sarcastic reply.

all he wants to do is point out how wrong anyone that likes/supports gals is and he's never been positive about anything escept himself. no logic but ness logic. find a different tone to a message he's written here(i did a search) and i'll eat the keyboard. the thread i started was positive and his negative same tired old crap invaded it and stopped what might have been the start of a true discussion. the end.

I mildly disagree with Ness on prices. However, he may have had more experience in that time frame than I did. At that time, I was just starting out in the hobby and found the high to be about 175 with a low of 100. All FS of course. Anything above 300 is somewhat rare thse days. At least in san diego. I only know of a few that are over $$$. I figure the average is about 250 to 275. There are plenty of sub 300 gals out there and quite a few at 300. Just my experience though.

What was the level of the providers you cite at those prices? Was it commonplace anywhere in that town or are you only making reference to some serious babage?

In 1990, I can remember providers in SLC charging approx. $75 (closer to the national average), DC/Vegas providers around $85-$100, while decent looking girls in SD charged roughly $120 max... interestingly, SLC girls are up there at around $250-$300 these days (mostly because they say the internet gives them an idea of "market rates")....

I hate to disagree with you Spectator but 13 years ago the general rates in the SF valley and WLA were around 200 or less.  I have less experience with the Beverly Hills area but the $500 an hour seems high.  As to the Valley area during that time frame I know of one lady who charged $200 for a half and $350 an hour.  I am sure there were a few more also.  The lady I knew was a stone fox (looked like Sharon Stone in her youth only more of a hardbody) and had an advanced degree in sex.
