Increased No Shows?

[Nadya511]

Inflation is definitely taking it's toll. On everyone. I did increase my rate by 100 since I started in 2019. But I feel it's still in tune with local talent. Also, I don't feel like I'm better than anyone else. However, I do try hard to make it a good experience for my clients. And from the reviews you guys post, that's not always the case with other providers. So I don't feel you can group us all together. There are good quality providers that take pride in what they do.

Side note: If you're someone I don't see anymore, it's not because of going over a few minutes. Going to take more than that for me not to want to see you.

You're one of my favorites, Nadya, and you're one of the few ladies in the area that hasn't drastically raised her asking price like select others.

But yeah. Inflation sucks, and it has forced me to cut back a bit and be more selective with who I see.

I don't think I've played since around March/April of this year, but I've still been lurking the forums and STG to see what's all out there.

But in keeping with the original topic of this thread, that might be another factor of why there are so few hobby/business opportunities in Pensacola now. Guys are holding on to their money a little more tightly. That's true with me, at least.

I do miss ya, Nadya. Heck, I wouldn't mind just having a coffee date sometime just to catch up. XD

Another thing is guys are less willing to take risks.

For example, would they rather drop 400 on someone they've seen a hundred times? Or drop 400 on a few face to the area, and risk getting scammed or robbed?

Exactly Bulldog 400 for basic FS is ridiculous. With inflation at a ,40 + year high. Some of these pros need to realize that most provide the same thing. But yeah you do have the scammers and robbers along with the ones that play mind games

[Nadya511]

Bulldog I am glad there are guys like you that have a good understanding of the struggles of both sides. Too many here that just want to bash us ladies. I don't really see the point in that. Why would I want to see anyone that calls us hoes or hooktards or whatever? And if you don't want to see me, that's fine as well, no hurt feelings.

I've always had the frame of mind to view things from all angles.

I'm sure this means you don't plan on seeing V31L anytime soon. lol

I always respect someone until they give me a reason not to. Even then, I still try to be civilized.

Bulldog I have no desire to see her. I am semi retired with inflation but I know this personally type

Still no reason to just be a douchebag.

I wasn't saying 400 for FS was ridiculous. But with the price hikes, guys are less willing to take risks on newcomers. And it's mostly those who are new to the area who are complaining about "not getting business".

Like, if Nadya's normal rate is 400, I'd rather see her than to see a newcomer who is also asking for 400.... because I've seen Nadya a few times. I trust her more, and I know for nearly certain I'm going to get an hour of continuous fun.

[V31L]

Ahhh I get it now I just stated I have no desire to see her and you say I am being a douchy you simps for this one are crazy I have never seen that before

[V31L]

Sorry I think 400 for an hr is crazy. But you guys continue to pay it and these woman continue to jack up the price which is causing the problem

Who do you recommend in the Panhandle? And what are their rates?

[V31L]

This one https://skipthegames.com/posts/pensa...-/969071425777 rates depends on what you are wanting but all are fair. Maui is another well reviewed one

You do you, man. No judgement on what you want, so why judge someone that wants a different experience? I've lived long enough to know the type of lady I prefer...that doesn't make me better/worse/right/wrong, I just prefer a different type of experience than you do. Some want a "visit" some want an experience, there's room for both in the world.

[V31L]

Umm not sure what you are talking about man. I am not judging anyone preferences, likes or dislikes
