I don't think its got to do with performance. Not sure if quality either. There are premiums that people are willing to pay....
This is how I see it:
- On the lower end of things... the SP (and the jones) just want to get it on... Volume drives the market. You just want to get it done... Here you will find the most people who just needs your money and perhaps the jones that are hardest to deal with.
- On the mid tier, perhaps most of the market. You will get people who have fun and you will get people who perhaps not so much... they both charge the same. This is where MERB excels at... it helps us find out who has fun doing what they do...
- On the upper side... you pay for speciality. Some guys think that upper tier means that the SP works less - is more exclusive, is not about the FS only. That there is more to it. Here I think its more about the experience.
Hello all,
There's been a lot of discussion on this before, notably in a contentious thread two or three years ago. Should the rates for an escort indicate what to expect regarding the quality of the escort, performance and satisfaction? Of course, that's a no-brainer. Are the chances good that you will get what you pay for, meaning the quality level of the encounter overall matches the rate level? Frequently not, though on the average it's usually true.
If you don't do your review homework, and/or seek out trusted members for advice who have dealt with the agency or escort, your chance of dissatisfaction will be 50/50 and maybe worse...unless all you want is to "get off". Research is the most important part of insuring that rates will match quality expectations because only you knows what really pleases you and makes you feel satisfied. When you are seeking out this information the raw details of options are important, but not as much as the feeling of the spirit of the information. Options lists and ratings numbers don't tell you nearly enough as finding out what the spirit of the experience was really like and learning how that will match up to your preferences and expectations.
The biggest point of arguments has been between the reality of what is different between mid-level and high level rates, and whether or not the higher costs are really consistent with higher reasonable quality expectations. Again, variations at both levels can be wide even if the expectations are rational and fair. It's just that one is wasting more money for disappointment at the higher rate level. Overall, without doing the work to have a much better insurance of what kind of quality you will get at any level you could easily be wasting your time and money.
As for the definition of "quality", sometimes the usual snobs try to pooh pooh (dismiss) any discussion about the quality one receives based on rates with the usual pompous claim that...oh, you just don't bring the culturally and intellectually sensitive palette refinement required to appreciate the finer qualities. It's a cheap, phoney, ego-serving tactic. Well, the same person would claim that if he brought a 24 carat gold spoon with inlaid pearls that a bowl of chicken soup will taste like caviar. Oy vey! For the purpose of the thread, let's just say quality equals satisfaction. True "high quality" is something different and while that obviously usually requires greater appreciation, time, and usually rate investment, high quality can be present at any rate.
Now - what I think in reality happens (a lot) is that most of us can't affort/justify the 5 grand... get curious as to what this' all about... pay $500 for ONE HOUR because that is all they had in their (now broken) piggy banks... call it a "birthday present to themselfs" and POW... disapointmet hits you in the forehead after you realize that the $500/h mish was almost the same as the $160/h mish you had last week... that is when men goes... "was it really worth it?"
Is there really a perceptible quality difference between mid and high level escorts. Probably not unless you enter into the more exclusive "call-girl" level of time and financial investment well over $500/hour. In what we call mid and high level escorting few great ladies start at the top. Great gems can be found at either level. I've met quite a number of ladies at the mid level who went on years later to charge double or more for their services. The higher rates didn't change their quality, their experience in the business did that, and that's IF their quality improved. I met one who was touted by many as truly magnificent in every aspect of her encounters, only to experience what was a costly dud. Was it complacency? Was it getting burned out (her)? Was it just a mismatch of personalities...a misunderstanding of reviews...a habit of reviewer exaggerations? It could have been been any of those...but it was a costly failure.
I have found that meeting gems on the way up has been a more satisfying experience than meeting the same gems once they've been well established and then charge higher rates. Maybe that's because there's more likely to be more joi de vive in newer experiences for both of us.
But talking about high-end girls, which is my expertise although I myself started at $170.00/hour many moons ago, I would say our clients are willing to pay a higher rate so they spend time with a woman who usually has a higher education level, many interests, good etiquette and manners in public/private, is somewhat wordly and sophisticated, a good conversationalist, with above average looks and is comfortable in her sensuality.

Yes, and to note, Giselle made a higher rate than 90% of beginners because she brought innate high quality, as well as real beauty, from the start.
Although one particular lady (an exception) in the past was a failure at manners, being quite conniving and dishonest, FKS was always one of the best agencies for successfully providing the quality you describe, and fulfilling high expectations. But it is difficult to appreciate these qualities in a short meeting, certainly not one hour. I invested in 3-hour meetings a few times and those were satisfying. But with a lady who brings all the qualities you describe there is a possible trap of attachment, at least for those who can appreciate something better than...cum and done. One must not forget that when you seek out someone who has all of the best qualities you risk having your feelings engaged to the point where you cannot withdraw them except very painfully no matter if one is consciously trying to prevent it. This never happened to me with an FKS lady, but it has happened with the FKS-model type as described. Finding ladies like this is wonderful, but as much as anyone knows what they are doing and tries to keep the boundaries, there are no off switches for feelings in this business.
They pay higher rates so they can enjoy the experience without feeling any guilt in that they partook in the "exploitation" of a girl/woman in any way, shape or form.
Giselle.
Frankly, thinking about it, I've never felt this way. I have felt appreciative when the ladies have given me more satisfying experiences and typically gave them bigger tips. When I had these meetings it was because the lady was able to demonstrate the same enjoyment as I, so I never felt exploitation either way. But..."exploitation"...it just as often happens that the "girl/woman" was exploiting the clients. Some ladies have specifically elaborated on that and some proved it by their actions.
BTW Giselle. "Cheers"...is copyrighted. You owe me sweetie.
the real...CHEERS,
Merlot
