Forum - Guys, Don't Haggle over donation rates

This is for everyone!

Recently I have been reading a lot of blogs from companions who have problems with haggling clients. Some of the women say that they have clients who complain about their rates being too high or try to squeeze out extra time during their sessions. It made me wonder about my rates. At first, I thought I was charging too much, but then I realized that Im not. Time is valuable and this is a working business in mind. If you or the client are unsure about the donation rates, keep these few things in mind:

1. The Companion has to stay beautiful for you which requires Maintaining: Hair, Skin, Nails, Body, Nutrtion, everyday living.

2. We have to travel to see you or pay for Room lodgings for Incall/Outcall. Gas, Car repairs and hotels are not free.

3. We are working. You have a job and you expect to get paid the best for the job well done that you do. We expect the same.

4. We are real people just like you. It takes money and resources to live. We have bills, and responsibilities just like you. NEWS FLASH!!! The cost of living is always going up, not down!

Bottom line is we are all in this to give and recieve. Treat your companion well and she will treat you even better for it!

When you want your house painted, or you buy a car or whatever service you like to be provided to you, do you immediatly pay the asked price? You never negotiate? And, for example, when you agreed on the price of a car, you never try to get extra items for free, or at a lower price?

You also try to suggest there is a link between the price asked by an escort and the expenses of an escort. If so, you must be able to explain me why you, living in a country with a GDP per capita of 44.000 USD, ask 850 for overnight and the escorts in the country where I live at the moment, Turkey (GDP per capita 9000 USD), ask a minimum of 500 USD for overnight.

When there are a lot of customers and just a few escorts, the price is high. When there are a few customers and a lot of escorts the prices are low. A simple economic law and that law doesn't forbid negotiations between the provider and the customer. So try to live with it.

I like your points of view. I agree, But some people simply dont understand or refuse to become educated on such points that you brought up.

And yes, some services you must pay for before they are done. Now when one is operating business alone or with few employees, its even more important to be compensated up front. This will help minimize being cheated too often.

Oh and good point. This is why people bulk up their prices like you said. Because sometimes people know that people will try to get extras so they bulk up the prices on other things so they dont loose money.

ME for example I take into consideration all the money that I put up to maintain my business.

Before haggling price with an escort, ask yourself if you would like your boss or customers haggling to lower your salary. It's insulting. As someone said earlier, we (mainly westernerns) don't haggle with lawyers, doctors or other professional services, so why haggle with escorts?

Yes, supply and demand does play a big part in the rate structure, but so does the risk factor. This is a risky game we play here and thus should be compensated accordingly. This risk varies in degree from one place to another and factors in to the rate structure.

Were that we lived in a sexually UNrepressed country and everyone was cool with escorting. Perhaps then we'd have educational degrees in escorting. Imagine a Masters in Escorting. M. ES or Courtesan University. (I just saw a Bollywood type movie called, KAMA SUTRA, where classes were held to teach women the Kama Sutra and the art of being a Courtesan. ) Then, maybe training and skill level would factor into the price. Alas, we are not that evolved yet. ;-}

We are not a piece of meat or an object on which to get a good deal. We are people providing a valuable and seemingly needed service (or else we wouldn't be dealin with that supply/demand issue, would we?). So please be respectful and honor our rates.

Take care,
Leslie

Thank you Leslie.
This guy says he "currently lives in Turkey", if that is the case and he owns a house which he can afford to have painted and buy a new car what in the hell is he complaining about. I have to paint my house with the help of freinds and my son and his friends. I can't afford to pay some one to paint my house.
A new car. I drove the same truck from 1979 until 2001. Yeah, it took me that long to save the money to buy one. Did I haggle about that, of course, it's part of the process. But I let the dealers know that they are not the only one I am going to see.
I am a licensed, professional firearms instructor. If you want a permit to own a gun you come to see me or someone like me to take a safety class and pass a preformance class and if you don't pass it I don't care what you paid you failed the test. You think I am going to haggle with some one over the cost of my safety and life? Get out of here, you want a professional lesson you pay my price. Do not insult me.
The same goes for the ladies on this site.
What type of job do you have bbb? Like Leslie said, are you going to haggle with me if I want to hire you? I doubt it.
As well as the supply and demand question arise I want to ask the question, which all commerce is based on: What will the market bear? You forgot about that.
In America you work 40 hrs a week at an $8.00 hr job. It cost $4.00 for a gallon of milk. $3.00 a gallon of gas. $4-5.00 for a loaf of bread ( if you can find it) and on and on.
bbb's statement of cost and location is like comparing apples to oranges. And why is he picking on ladies in America?
I know that people, from Eastren Europe, flood Turkey for holidays and have seen their ads when I worked in the Ukraine. bbb complains about the difference in rates that escorts provide. Well, every ad I've seen from Turkey is based on Euros not USDs and the Euro is at a higher rate than the USD.
So tell me bbb, what's really bothering you. Oh, yeah, GDP means gross domestic product, what a country manufactures and makes. Not how much a person earns. Your 44,000 satement is off by at least 24,000.

Right On guys! I love the break down. It is so true that a lot of Americans work 40 or more hours per a week and still can't afford living.

Had a guy today want to haggle.Claimed when he first contacted me a couple of months ago,my rate was 100 less than stated in my listing.I dont think so.My rate has been same since I put my listing online.Said he couldnt do that.I politely said Goodbye and Good Luck finding some one cheaper and hung up,then blocked his number on my Ring Central account.

Hey Sierra,

Way to stick to your guns. I wrote a list of potential replys to haggling and out of control clients. It is as simple as that. i dont have time to play games. My goal is Quality not Quantity! I am not going to haggle, argue, or give out sensitive information to just anyone!!!! Besides, a respectable and mature man has no reason to cause troubles.

I think that the hobbyist shouldn'y haggle or try to nocotiate with the rates....I mean like the woman said before we need gas, car matianance, skin care, pedies, manies, clothes, seXXXY clothes, and other misc. .,... We have to take care of ourselves so hat the hobbyist will want us.

haggling is very classless and rude...you are basically telling the provider that you do not believe she is worth the rate she requests, a complete slap in the face. it is not like purchasing a car or a piece of furniture at an auction, this is a HUMAN BEING you are talking about, who is providing a very intimate, emotionally, mentally and physically demanding service for you. please, please have the common decency not to haggle, barter (had one optometrist offer free exams and glasses/contacts in exchange for my services...ugh!), or attempt to obtain restricted services. treat us with decency and respect, and you will get the same in return and then some.

I totally agree that's it's quality rather than quantity. Haggling makes the transaction cheap. Men get the service that they pay for. So if they want to pay less then they get less quality service. Make the girl happy and trust me......you will rewarded much more!

I agree, haggling is pathetic. If you don't want to pay the rates she has, then don't waste your time or hers and move on.

I just joined today. I am, I guess an "amateur hobbyist" and have little experience with escorts. However...

I do believe it is rude to haggle with an escort. There is a difference between haggling for a non-personal service (i.e., house-painting, a car purchase, etc.) and haggling for an intimate, personal service. There are times when I have browsed CL for escorts. If I didn't like the price listed, I would move on. If there was no price listed, I would enquire. If I deemed the price too high for me, I would politely decline and wish her luck in finding someone else. Hopefully, I am handling it tastefully.

That is really sweet. Its nice to see a hobbyist with a kind side!!!!!!!
