I remember a time when the going rate was $.5.  Seems the going rate now for non agency top ladies is $$$$ or $$$$$.  I'm not complaining and encourage the ladies to do what works for them.

I would like to ask why more ladies don't offer discounts to regulars.  Maybe they do and I just don't know about it.  I know one of my ATF's does and it's great.

I would think the familiarity of the gent ect... would certainly be worth it to the lady.

So if you do this, please PM me, I'd love to get to know you and of course earn this special benefit.

Again, this isn't complaining, just generating discussion.

like I said I have gotten upwards of 50% off the list prices... you just got to ask

the prices for most of the ladies are not inline with what is going on with economy, however if the ladies can get some stupid guys to pay full price + tip and cut them short on their time while doing it.. more power to them!.. I get that same action at 50%

Grandfathered Rate Counts.  

But I'm also asking about frequent flyer miles LOL.  I once went to a massage parlour that gave me a card where I received a free massage after my 5th visit.  It was the only dang spa I ever visited 5 times.

Never see anything like that with ladies.  I'm guessing they don't need too and it's just simple supply and demand.  Risk is in the new client.  So if a lady can reduce the need to see new clients, even if she does have to slightly increase volume to do the same amount, it would seem it's safer.

I haven't walked in their shoes and certainly have no idea of their troubles though.  It's probably easier said than done.

Some ladies will post different prices on different sites. Also check all the major sites, ter, eros, cityvibe, adultsearch,  and backpage. Some have pretty good prices with GFE services (bbbj, daty, dfk) [sometimes greek] between $150/hour-$200/hour. Many don't have reviews but there are some with review ratings in the 8-10 range.

.........I never raise it on gentlemen I have visited with before.  That is just wrong.  I do offer "discounts", but it is not on a date by date basis.

You say you member a time when the going rate was 150 and now the average is 4 or 5. But you didn't say what you would be happy to pay? 150. 2. 3? What are you comfortable with paying?

Agencies like the guys want the ladies to see new people all the time. They want new reviews instead of repeat business. The more reviews the more popular the lady resulting in the higher than average rate. The people/schedulers that run the agencies have a tendency to increase their intake. That is why many are charging $350/hour or more. If you look at this board there have been posts about a lot of bad agencies over working the ladies etc.

Do you expect the gentlemen that saw you at the discount/special price to pay the regular price for future visits ?

Let suppose the session was hot/intense and you really like the guy. Does he get a different treatment and be allowed to pay at the discount/special price ?

3 to 3.5 to for top ladies

A provider told the price that was quoted in the ad was wrong. I said ok no deal. Then said "on no no ,lets make a deal". I told her about my requirements and she agreed to come over and we had a good time.

I see very few ads these days with no negotiation. The ones that have no negotiation have had some recent corrections to adjust the price down to the local market rates. They have also opened up who they will see because they realize you can't discriminate too much in our region to survive.

There are many good choices out there in that price range.

I believe many who ask 4 or more do so to see a select few who have the extra $ and don't ask for discounts or deals.

They are out of my range and yet I have no problem finding incredible talent in my range.

I don’t see how your post has anything to do with discounts. If you don’t like agencies that’s fine, whatever works for you. I have not seen any major increase in agency rates for ladies with reviews around here. Actually, I haven’t seen any major increase in agency rates lately, period. And I’ve yet to find any business that doesn’t want repeat customers.

When I first began entertaining part time (many, many years ago), my gift was X per hour.  A few of my gentlemen callers have known me since the beginning, and their gift has not, and will not increase.  

   I really like all the gentlemen I visit with (if I don't, I just won't see them again), and some always get a special price, because they always reserve multi hour, overnight, and travel dates.  I rarely visit with any gentleman for an hour.  I also offer "packages", which gives the gentleman a special price.  Also offer on going arrangements, which gives the gentleman a special price, as well.

   I do not, and never have run "specials".  Why should I give new friends a break?  I am not sure if all this makes sense, but it works for me.

You sound like a very smart lady. It is good that you don't give those discounts/special prices. It can cause a lot of drama.

........drama is the last thing I need or want.  Life is too short!

The discount thing works only if the girl is looking for business.  Some of the ladies I know are definitely NOT hurting even in this economy.  In fact, some are almost always booked days out, even 2~3 weeks out, and overwhelmed even with their existing volume already.

I tend to treat the discount thing from the perspective of the provider, and IMHO, how a hobbyist handles it depends on what the hobbyist is looking for. If the girl performs well, looks fantastic, and treats me like a king, on subsequent visits I usually offer to pay full price even when the girl offers me a discount.  (I don't do this for every girl, just the ones that I sense chemistry/ connection with)  There is a reason behind this. Not because I am loaded and filthy rich but because the lady in question could be someone I'd like to keep a long term provider-client relationship with and want to give her incentive not to de-prioritize me.  Notice that I'm not aiming to be treated with special privileges but rather aiming to not get bumped and to be given the appointment slot of my choice. I almost always get the time I want as a result and I never get last minute cancellations.

Ever run into a situation where the lady cancels on you at the last minute or offers you unfavorable times of the day? Yes, providers do that to folks who constantly ask for discounts. I almost always get the time I want as a result and I never get last minute cancellations. The discount you get might come back to bite you...  

To be clear, I'm not against discounts in anyway, (obvious) I'd be sadistic if I was.  I try to enjoy the given discount a few months but monitor how the girl is doing. if she's getting popular then she will only give a discount if she likes me personally, sacrificing her potential income from other clients. i think that makes me a bit uncomfortable to sustain too long. on the other hand if the girl is looking for business, well i will most definitely honor the discount. strangely though, none of the girls I'm interested in seeing are really hurting. Just giving a different perspective to keep in mind if one day a hobbyist wonders why his appointments are getting bumped and the lady starts answering less promptly, etc.

I've been enjoying this "job" for about 9months now.  I would still consider myself a newbie.  Here is my take on negotiating, or offering discount.  

A 1 hour date for you, is essentially a 4 hour date for me - 1hour to get ready for you - 1 to drive to you, 1 to spend together, and 1 to drive home.  Break down that hourly rate....

Now say you get a guy who wants to negotiate - first thing I am thinking is HE called me.  You (men) looked at my site, got interested, and contacted me.  Don't attempt to negotiate.  Its very disrespectful.  Personally it pisses me off.  Rates are almost always posted on every girls site - open your eyes, get past the pics, and make sure you can afford her.  If not, move on to another gal.  There will ALWAYS be one in your price range.  

Repeat friends - repeat friends are friends that have been seen 4 or 5 times.  I personally have told a few friends to knock off some much off the price because I am seeing him so much.  One friend I saw once a week for 5 weeks in a row.  He does not pay full price even though we do not see each other every week now.  Once a discount is offered you (men) will never pay the posted rate again.

I get frustrated when we have seen each other once and on the second visit you assume we can go overtime.  I can get past the negotiating, and request for discounts, but the assumption that my time is yours angers me.  If I run us overtime that's one thing, but if your intention is to drink wine, talk, and play in 3 different role play scenarios - we aren't going to get that done in an hour.

Every now and then I will post a discount offering.  If/when I do, it's because I need the business; or I've got a free weekend and nothing booked and need to have some fun!

I'll get off my soapbox novel now!

Personally, I don't get "negotiating".

I'm not saying I can afford a $1,000/HR girl...but I do believe in getting what you pay for.

Frankly, the lower the price the more skeptical I am.  Any girl under $250....I chalk it up as either a handjob or someone who just wants to talk.

I think a woman is WAAAAAAY above some old rug that you haggle over at a yard sale.

I don't need to get laid...I want to get laid right.  And on that note I will go for the best and pay accordingly.

First, thanks to all who participated.  Much appreciated.

The conversation didn't seem to get at what I was asking, and went more towards wanting something for nothing, which was not my intent at all.

I was really asking, for a lady, what makes a guy want to see her more than once?  Let's be real, there is plenty of talent in the DC area, so a guy has many options.  My thoughts were if a lady created more return clients, she inturn reduces her risk by not having to see as many new clients who could possibly be trouble.

Maybe there isn't a benefit to this, maybe there are so many regular clients at the listed rate, it's not necessary.

For me, I like variety, so there are very few I repeat with.  The one thing that might change that is if there was a benefit to it.
