or 30 minDon’t be shy to ask respectfully if there’s a 45 minute rate, this might also be a sweet spot for you!happy hobbying
SP under $250 in Ottawa
- Thread starter boobblaster
- Start date
I’d rather eat five times than eat once.In metropolitan cities, it may be more difficult - incalls, posting is generally more expensive. If you go into smaller towns maybe you might have more variety within your price point.
sometimes it’s worth it to expand the budget and invest in a sure thing
I love using analogies and tho I don’t hobby I love going out for dinner, but I’d rather dine out once a month at a 5 star, because all the 40$ here and 20$ there uber eats adds up and sometimes it’s like WOW what a great meal for close to nothing, or wow the driver took longer, my foods cold and now I can’t get my $$ back.
I don’t know what that’s supposed to mean.
I’m saying I’m not paying steak prices for KD I guess. $200-300 is more than reasonable for ONE hour of uh…..companionship I think it’s called.
That’s more than many people make in an entire day, or two if you factor in deductions.
The cost of everything is going up sharply again, and wages aren’t keeping up. Hobbying is disposable income, and a lot of people have less than they used to, or none at all these days.
It’s just math, you don’t have to let your feelings get hurt over it.
Agreed on this point ive learned the hard way that high cost don't always = good service.
I get very good service and food in a lits of restaurants in Ottawa for less than $15+ & meals comparable quality at other so called fancy restaurants are 30+ and not as good
But it's a free open market with lots of options and we all have choices
I agree with this being a mid range price point provider myself who I would like to think offers an exceptional service. As I’ve said in the past it really depends on what you’re looking for in a provider. Sometimes it’s strictly based off looks - especially if you like the more Barbie esque pornstar feel, those girls invested a lot in themselves to look a certain way so it would make sense that they charge more as there overhead costs might be different to someone like me who can’t afford to get Botox, filler and a personal trainer more frequently then I would like. Does it mean the service is amazing - not always. But it’s a feast for your eyes for sure!
and yes the world is getting expensive, my plumber to charge me 180$ an hour plus 1 hour for travel. He charged me for 2 hours and stayed for 1 hour and 15 minute to install my dishwasher - no pussy was eaten LOL.
Did you mention you had a leak that needed to be looked at
It’s a frustrating time. I certainly do appreciate good value providers. This “list” is a great idea since I find leolist to be virtually unusable these days with verified fakes, and onlyfans merchants everywhere.
Even on this site it’s hard to find info about who is real, etc.

Yes, I think the goal should be to make it easier for us men to find (and support!) the legit independent working women.
Not many providers respond well to price haggling, in my experience.
Please, please don't do this. It's one thing if the shortest time period she posts is an hour, and you're asking if she offers shorter time periods (she probably doesn't, otherwise she'd have them posted). But trying to negotiate rates is not cool, and not something you'd do with any other professional in your life who provides a service.
I'm sorry I didn't understand your intent (I legitimately am), but there was literally nothing in your original post that suggested that was what you were saying. And I wasn't the only one who read it that way.
that’s “literally” not what you said. Keep backpedaling.
Yawn. Can we go back to talking about beautiful women?
This isn’t true at all. People haggle in a ton of industries. Go shoot a wedding video or run a landscaping business for 5 minutes.
As someone who ran a construction business and did the sales for two years, I can tell you there is a major difference between quoting a construction job where there are a lot of fluctuating variables, especially for a job that might run over several days or weeks, and setting a fixed hourly rate as a service provider! And by the way, when you negotiate in construction, corners often get cut so that’s not always a great idea either.
Just because you can negotiate in some industries, doesn’t mean it’s acceptable to negotiate in all industries. I don’t negotiate with a restaurant when I go out for dinner, I don’t negotiate with Ticketmaster when I book a concert, I wish I could negotiate with my lawyer but unfortunately that’s a non-starter too!
Over and above that, trying to negotiate is a great way to get blocked. It's a waste of our time and offensive TBH, especially if someone tries to mansplain our business and worth to us. If you want to get the best service, put your best foot forward. A little charm goes a long way!
The one exception I'll make is when someone is asking for something I might reasonably offer such as a regular arrangement, vacation date, unique fantasy or perhaps a social only rate. I'm ok with an approach where you ask me to make a custom quote or say what your budget is so I can respond with what’s possible. Just don't write ladies who post a fixed rate asking if we can meet for less or argue that our fees are out of alignment with the market

I didn’t advocate for negotiating. I treat SP’s the same way I treat any service. Value is number 1. Am I getting what I’m paying for.
If an SP’s rates are higher than I’m willing to pay, I just don’t contact her.
I find it hard to believe that you didn’t come across hagglers, low ballers and outright deadbeats in the constitution business. As a younger man I can remember constantly fighting with bosses over hours, pay, etc. I've witnessed disputes and complaints over pricing firsthand.
Also in the service industry, you do “negotiate” somewhat by what kind of tip you leave.
The idea that SP’s are off limits is ridiculous to me, especially since most have tiers they provide, some charge more in one city than another, they have a MP persona and a SP persona, they have ads on different sites with different pricing, etc.
It’s the game. We want to pay the least and you want to make the most. There’s always middle ground to be found.
