What's your price range?

[Guest040210]

Sofia, I think you and Carkido45 might have more in common than you may think.

Victoria, I'd love to continue this flirtatious conversation but I'll be damned if I'm going to be accused of posting a threAD before Sofia.

Oh, did I mention that I have an amazing resemblance to Heath Ledger!!!!

I think price point is subjective regardless of the “purchase”. The price paid is matter of the perceived value. I would never pay $300 for a designer dress just because it is a garden-variety, designer dress. I would consider paying and have paid $300 for a dress if it is cashmere or beyond fabulous on me or whatever. But of course, I get more than one wear out of an amazing dress.

Some gentlemen really do want the entire courtesan experience, but there are many more that do not. It depends on what service a gentleman wants and the service the lady is capable of or willing to provide. I see absolutely no reason why a lady should only provide one or the other experience nor do I see any reason why a gentleman wouldn’t want a variation in services at one time or another. But pay more just to pay more – no. I don’t do it; why should I expect anyone else to.

So to answer the question, I’d have to say kinda. Do I sound like a politician?

With Lydia your going to need more than Cialias too keep up.
Redbull and a B-12 shot might help.
DON'T LET HER CUTENESS FOOL YOU.

I couldn't agree more ... I have paid for the $$$ + sessions, and have been very disappointed (hell I was expecting a great experince for that kind of money ... excuse me for the high expectations).

Now, I will generally not pay over $$ for a visit, unless she knocked my socks off on a previous visit. The last girl I was willing pay + $$ for was Amanda aka Mandy Candy (I notice someone on eccie has her picture as their avatar as a tribute to her).

Let's face it ... in Houston ... with a little research and some testing ... you can find some very nice girls in the $ to $$ range where the "experience" is much better then the many of the $$$+ girls. (LB4U had some great girls at $.2 to $.6, etc.).

Also my attitude about the price range was ruined when I was overseas and got some prime tail for $20 (that's twenty dollars total). Makes a person want to retire overseas.

As I've gotten older, the "experience" has become more important then the "act".

btw ... the best session with greek I had was at a Dallas AMP for $.2 ... so you can never tell the value of a session for the $ range.

It's a myth!

I'm sorry ... I have to disagree with you ... my experience is that more often then not the $$$+ encounters are far less satisfying then some of the $ to $$ sesions I have had.

When I first moved to Houston and started spending money at SC, then on the hobby ... I was spending money like it was going out of style ... but I wised up and realized that most "girls" are more interested in separating you from your money. Thanks to some sage advise on the ASPD board ... slowly I learned.

I understand your attitude and your promotion of that idea ... be my guest at going after the higher-end market (of course the real high-end is measured in K's), but I choose not to go there anymore. The phrase "...you get what you pay for ..." does not strictly apply in the "hobby".

In my mind ... that is why sites like eccie are so valuable ... if you are willing to research and learn you can get satisfying experiences without getting taken to the cleaners ... guys don't be fooled ... for the girls it is all about taking us to the cleaners.

Miss Sofia you seem to have this kind of haughty attitude and it's really a turn-off.
I think you hurt your ladies chances of seeing a lot guys by being this way.
I wouldn't want too see one your girls simply because they may be just like you snobbish and that would be a big time waste of money.
I am a blue collar worker who works hard for his money give me a blue collar provider who works hard for her money and I'm a happy camper.
I don't want too show at up someone's incall and the provider take a look at me and think she's doing me favor.
I get enough of that in the real world.
Yeah I know sofia your going to insult me but I knew you would before I started wrinting this... you see that's the problem.

AMEN ... the proverbial upturned nose is a turn off ... however there is nothing more sentual then a 10 with a sweet girl next door personality ... especially if she is only $.5.

When you're a Professional In a Management Position, you have to make sure the girls in your "co-op" keep the rates high, otherwise you won't make your nut either.

[carkido45]

Look at it this way when an agency provider charges 300 and she has to say give her agency let's say 100 then your really getting the provider at 200.
The same rate as a very good Indy.

Very well said, good analogy, the thing about the houston hobby market is that you can get "cashmere or beyond fabulous" for under $$ if you do your research, know where to look. I hobby 2-4 times month and could easily afford $$ or more, but "cashmere or beyond fabulous" is available under $$, why would I pay more?

Yup. True, so very true.
