If every provider decided to raise their rates to $400, i would be forced to quit the hobby right now!! On the other hand also not going to go on backpage for no $60 special. Those are both extremes for me. I prefer it to be right in the middle where it is. You get what you pay for and reviews say it all. If you have good reviews i might be willing to pay a little extra. if you have bad reviews then i may not even see you depending on why you received it. I do have standards so i prefer quality. So the amount i give should be proportional to the quality i receive.
I also do like when people complain about what other people are doing, lol. you do your thing and they will do theirs. If you are worth the donation that you request then guys will be willing to pay up, thats my 2 cents. Happy hobbying to all.
There is a market for every type of provider and hobbyist
