2014 Price Creep

[Rusty Staub]

I know there are a lot of topics in prior years about this but just wanted to point out that almost every reputable outcall agency has gone up $10-$20/hr across the board this year

If not an increase at the agency level, then most of the SP's now call themselves "VIP" to get another $20 or $40

Not suggesting a boycott or any of that nonsense that leads nowhere but just putting this out there as a point of information

I'm a seasoned veteran that recalls the $140 CAD rate against a 1.6 exchange rate & That's The Way It Was And We Liked It

I have noticed the increase in Agency rates also. The norm the last couple years was $180. It seems it is $200, but there are a couple of agencies who are still $180 or $190.

If there's a cut back in volume, a large number guys decide to use agencies once a month instead of twice a month, because of the rise of fees, then I think you will see some agencies running specials and going back to the previous $180 standard.

It was 140 / 160 In 2000 ! And with cost of life going up , they're price also should go up ! If you compare to 2000 were a lap dance was 10$ and today is still 10$ you could say that price of lap dances went down ! It's not because you or I don't like it but inflation is a bitch ! The market will by itself regulate the price . More offer , price will go down and more demand price will go up. True democracy is in your wallet by buying something or a service it's a vote for them ! If you want a green planet buy green stuff or electric car ! Cheap is cheap and a bargain is hard to come by !

MSC 160
Satin Dreamz 180
Wild times 160 -190 if you quote the Merb rate on booking

Continued creep these last 30 days

Well if the anti-prostitution bill passes, then all these agencies are going to disappear. So, maybe some agency owners have started already collecting some money for retirement...

I noticed Montreal Sex City has gone to $180 now. It was a matter of time I guess. MSC is one of my favorite agencies, in reality it was the first agency for me when I got into the hobby. I must admit that that price point was a reason ive used her agency in the past along with Jessies excellent customer service skills and selection of women. She has always had quality ladies, never had one bad expierence with any of them. Not sure how this will affect my decisions in the future but likly not much.

An earlier post mentioned ladies being VIP.....I've never understood most of the VIP descriptions other than too charge a bit more.

There are many options and in my opinion if you pay the price they are asking they will hold the price and eventually move it even higher, supply and demand. On the other hand if you look for and use agencies that have a lower price and actually let them know that you have used them specifically because of their pricing they will actually hold their prices and may from time to time like Laila McCole offer specials

Just noticed now that mtlgfe has gone from $190 to $200, although they are offering specials and loyalty discount.

I did not see this thread and have been wondering myself and just posted one. Special K alerted me of this thread so I will add it here. Only other thing I can add is that I hope it is just a sign of the times and not one of collusion.

Prices moving Up?
Just curious but to me, the prices of Escort services is swinging upward again. Granted there has been a long lull after a few agencies seemed to put up a wall and keep the prices stable. Recently, Mtlgfe went up from $180 to $190 and now, in a matter of weeks, up to $200. Satin Dreams bumped up to $180 a year or so ago and now Montreal Sex City has moved up another $20 (for the ladies). Were they all just being kind while the economy was recovering?

So, I do not have an opinion yet. Prices of all things fluctuate for sure and the economy is improving. For me, my own financial situation is still waiting for recovery. Just wondering how the MERB population at large feels about this. Business as usual? Time to cut back? Maybe you are so financially secure that it doesn't matter?

I love and appreciate every single woman who has given of themselves and made my day, my week, my month and I am going to miss them, have to scale back on all things again just to have a beautiful session with one of them. Maybe it is just par for the course and that someone of meager means should not be seeking solace, sexual expression and the beauty of the feminine in this way. If I had a choice, I guess I would not but that does not mean that I do not cherish the wonderful women I have had the pleasure of knowing through this means.

Would enjoy hearing how others feel about this. Either way it will be good to hear. Thanks.

There would be demand destruction at some level. Remember oil at $140 per barrel?
One of my regular SPs jacked her price up from $80 to $100 / hh and I stopped seeing her because there are better options for me at that price.
I think $80-100 per hh will always remain a niche market for the ladies to fill.

If you noticed, staffing levels at agencies seem to be at an all time low and I am personally not seeing much new talent.

Reality is that at $160 or $180 a lot of John's were willing to take a shot with a debutante or a SP that took some recent flattering pics.

But at an $200 entry point (plus the extras such as CIM that used to be included), I know guys are more willing to go with a well reviewed veteran SP for $240.......or just not call an SP at all

Tough for a new service oriented SP to get a regular clientele unless she is a knockout 10.

I have a feeling we will see more specials, Wild Card's, etc. this summer

Either that or potential SP's will go back to stripping
