It sure seems to be a touchy subject, seems to get a lot of men and most of the providers all worked up when anyone discusses rates.
Take it easy, it’s just a discussion. Nobody needs to get thier panty’s in a knot. (That would be uncomfortable.)
The discussion was about why the big jump, nobody was telling anybody what to change, or what to Pay.
We each get to make our own choices on what we are comfortable with.
Having been a regular client of a few agency ladies who then went Indy, some will still charge me the old agency rate, grandfathered rate they call it. Same with a few Indy’s who increased rates, will still charge me the old rate. For that I’m grateful.
On the other hand, some lady’s I used to see regular, increased rates and told me I’d have to pay more. I said thanx but no thanks, good luck, best wishes. I hope they do well. But if its, out of my comfort range, I’ll move on. No hard feelings.
I even had one change her rates, up, in between the time I booked and the time I confirmed. So I said no thank you. She texted back that she’d do the old rate this time, so I went. She cut the hour short. Never seen her since. I still wish her well.
Another analogy;
Rather than streaming a movie online at home, I prefer to see movies in imax or in the vip theatre.
Big screen, big sound, comfy recliner seats and overpriced table service. The food isn’t that good but with all the trimmings, plus no noisey kids, I much prefer the vip, even though it’s more expensive. I’ll pay extra for good service. Even though it’s the same movie and ends the same way.
Good luck to all you Lady’s. Play safe, have fun.
