I've noticed a lot of the girls on EROs are doing that these days too.  That and there isn't an email address either which means no info unless you ask...unfortunately that just means i keep on looking...i imagine those girls must be losing out on a lot of business because of that.

I had a friend who was a provider when i lived in Boston that used to tell guys that if they had to ask or were that concerned...then they couldn't afford it.  I told her that i would just  be thinking....SET UP!

Like:

How many roses would you like for one hour?
Or
What do you expect as a gift for one hour?
Or
I am willing to stay for one hour, please let me know how many roses would you like to receive?

When the donation is not specified in the ad, the lady is prepared to these kind of questions, or she will even tell you how much is it when you make your appointment.

PH

Surely the gals must know that educated clients will not mention money during their communications, so what is she thinking?

The two obvious things I fear is that she will talk me into a date and then land the bad news of how much she costs thinking I'll be too polite to bargain or withdraw or...

She is LE and is trying to get me on tape making arrangement for pay for play.

Both scenarios obviously don't interest me.

I do understand that some gals are hesitant to post rates on their sites thinking that LE could use that as evidence against them.

In that case, assuming they have reviews, they could simply refer potential clients to those reviews for information regarding donations, and leave it at that.

If it's not in the ad, yer gonna have to ask, one way or the other.  It would be better to have a website or refer you to a review.  IMHO, NOT having a way for the gent to learn the donation rate is unprofessional.  As much as we want a GFE, amateur night really leaves a lot to be desired.

Rates are listed there, so you should have an idea about how much to bring.  As to whether these are current, ???, just bring along an extra fifty or c-note just in case...

Re: Postings with no dontation listed..

How about checking the ladies website and/or reviews?     I, personally, would rather not list my rate on certain sites.  I don't mind doing it on TER or MyFastPass but hesitate to do so on CV or BP.  There are a few sites that do not want you to list rates.   I usually refer gentleman to my website or reviews for more info, including rates.

Often, ads are stolen to fill out escort malls and other site.  Also, since there are so many places our info can be on-line you should always look for a direct link to the ladies site.

Check her website for rates.  If she has no site, look at her weekly postings and profile on the regional board here.  If she has no profile or ads here... really, your option is to simply ask her via email what her donations are.  In that case buyer be warned - and good luck with that!

I do not list my rate in any of my ads and have not in yrs. Yet there is always a link to my site. I would rather a Gentleman go to my site read my reviews see if we are a good match. The more he knows about me the better and my rates are listed on my site as well as Ter reviews. If he does his homework he will know what my rate is.

However, since I am thinking at the same time I am typing, I could see that when you are touring, posting the donation would be beneficial for me.

Otherwise, I put all that stuff in my site, and most of the time, gentlemen can find it, if not I direct them to my menu. But now I think, I'll just send them the link, to make it even easier.

When I see an ad with no rates listed, I first check for reviews.  Assuming the reviews are good, I note the rate.  Then I check her site to confirm the rate, and to see if it varies when traveling.

If there's any question about what the rate is, I move on.  I'd rather find another lady than wonder what this one will cost.

Really depends on existence of solid review history.  Generally, no rates I don't call.  No clue about her location, I don't call.  No reviews I don't call.  Questionable rate schedule, I don't call.  I'd rather find someone where I don't have those questions than take a chance on asking those sort of questions.

I don't post my donations on my ad posts, but my rates are listed on my site.

I agree about not liking to discuss $$ of any sort on the phone either...

If she does not have a site with listed rates, that means she IS probably comfortable talking about money...and then you should make a decision on if she is really what you are looking for (from a safety aspect).

Best of luck,
