Bartering is just a woman's way of haggling.

Oh, you don't want to pay $1,200 for car repairs, huh??

Don't wanna spend $600 for a new A/C??

But when a guy wants a special or whatever, he's a sleaze bag or, or, or...cheap bastard, for trying to negotiate??

Come on, ladies. When you want to 'barter', you're just admitting that spending a lot of money for something sucks.

Well, how do you think WE feel spending money in the hobby???

Just saying.

I have bartered furniture an mattress with about 6 gals. I'm a wholesaler an when they come to my place an see what they can save and not have to put up any money just make x amount of visits its a good deal for both parties.

I have bartered a few times for car stuff and it worked out okay. I have learned that if I do not get my part up front it normally does not happen. Live and learn. Though I did have a girl leave town and had another provider pay the debt. I was impressed. I now have a place to take care of the "deal" on site so I wont be writing any off again.

Exactly but it works ok for me, I can also inflate my hourly labor rate along with charging flag hours and don't forget travel fees.

How about bartering for (edit by Namssa, please read the forum guidelines.)

[~Ze~]

I have VERY specific tastes. My wants and needs aren't just taking some freebee ya got from a work party raffle. If you do happen to have something on my wishlist, I may be willing to work out a plush time for trade with you. Most of the time however, I will just earn up to what I want and buy it for myself. Ugh, sometimes a gal just wants a good ole fashioned gift.


An idea of what I might consider a plush time...

My eye is on a Tom Bihn Tri Star. They retail for about 330.

Spend an hour with me for cash, get the second hour for the bag... and probably plus another hour or so for dinner etc afterwards.

It has to be an arrangement BOTH parties are ok with.

Edit: ^ that dinner home made?

Expected some posh/$3k ikea bag-esque thing... That tri star things looks damn nifty. Would make a good work/tech travel bag! PAX is around the corner...

Sadly you're probably getting more replies than anyone. I think you're a scum bag peddling that crap.

Sweater Puppies had a sweet offer for some pizza and chicken a few years back.

Coming up with a lot of cash quick for a car repair can be difficult and being without a car means being out of work.

Very smart Ang

Wow love it , but watch RC the response you get form some providers here. You just spoke the God truth, and From my experience just like you said RW, women most definitely don't like to spend a lot of her money on something she rather it be her S/O or somebody else money. If she just had to shell the coins out, but she saw she has the opportunity to take the advantage of the situation by offering a sexual favor I'm sure most will, especially an escort.

I agree it's the exact same thing when a man try to negotiate her rate and her ass get mad and say get your cheap ass out of here lol, but if a woman do this and ask for a trade of service by giving a sexual favor for something she needs or really wants then it's ok.

Smh!!!
