"Has this ever happened to you, my fellow RB bros?"
 
   LAST EDITED ON 25-Jul-09 AT 10:42 PM (PST)
 
So about a month or two ago I saw an add for an incall nearby. I don't remember the donation but I think it was 100 for the half hr. I went to see her, everything was cool, decent incall, pics were accurate, etc.

A couple days ago I'm cruising looking for street action, but nothing caught my eye. So I decided to give this girl another call since I had her number still in my phone. I call and when she answers I say, "Hi this is XXXXXXXX. I'm not sure if you remember me but I wanted to know if you were available." She tells me "Yes I'm available but I don't provide at that rate anymore, my half is now 150." It seemed a little weird to me that she knew I just wanted half hr, and that she would discuss donation on the phone since she normally posts ads(my assumption from reading these forms is that if she posts donation info, she will not discuss over the phone). My loss since 100 is all I had to spend that night, guess I'll just go home and rub one out. All well and good until I get to the desktop. Just out of curiosity, I'm cruising the ads and what do I see? Her ad! And guess what? She is advertising at 100 for the half hour!! I send a text saying her ad says 100 but not to my surprise I don't hear back.

What did I do wrong to get upsold? Was she desperate for cash, or did I do something wrong the first time I saw her? Has this happened to any of my bros here? Should I say something about it in Neighborhood Watch?

You most likely didn't do anything wrong or out of the ordinary. She just threw that out there to see if you'd bite. You didn't. Good for you.

Things like that are irritating, but there's not really much point in trying to figure it out. There's no way to know what she was thinking, other than "Maybe this guy will bite on 150 this time". At least she didn't spring it on you after you got there.

It seems that this might meet the criteria for an NW post, but then, she may be running another ad somewhere that quotes different pricing.

If this is the worst thing that has happened to you, you're doing okay. Sounds like the problem is on her end, not yours. Keep it that way. Your time is better spent finding another one that suits you.

I agree that she might have multiple ads running on different sites. You need to mention that you saw her ad on RB or wherever you saw it and see what she says. If she upsells, pass. Seems you made the right call on this one.

   Not all providers post their own ads, sometimes there are communication break downs between the provider and the poster.

She had to do for you more than $100 worth last time, and decided that if she provides for you again she would have to charge you $150. Were you not very clean, unattractive, took too long,...?

Sima4,
Unattractive is in the eyes of the beholder but I guarantee you I arrive clean and showered to every appointment so I highly doubt that was the case. You don't know me so why would you assume that was the case? As for taking too long, I don't think I did because I'M usually the one watching the clock, afraid if I take too long I might see the end of a pimps pistol or something. But if that was the case why didn't she speak up during the session if I was running over? I've had no problems in the past when girls have told me to hurry up my time is almost over. Once I was allowed to stay one hour for a 15 min rate, maybe because I started with DATY. A couple days later I was granted a FREE session form the same girl, so going over is not always a problem.

   Wayne, I'm sorry but I have to side with the girl here. She is an independent contractor and has a right to change her rates. You should appreciate that she told you over the phone so that you can make up your own mind, rather than surprise you when you are with her or after the session. She is not a rob.

You liked her it seems...and apparently there are a lot of other guys who do too. Law of supply and demand...demand is higher, and she senses it. So good for her to raise her rates.

Girls who are truly independent post their own ads and may not be able to monitor them to maintain consistency and updated information. Too many guys get attached to what's in the ad, not realizing that pimps are mostly the authors. Of course they are going to post lower rates to get the calls. But if a few bucks here or there will kill the deal for you, then you should ask point blank when you make the call. Usually it's the girl who is paranoid about talking rates over the phone, but guys should clear that up before making the trip.

Wayne, if you really like her, give her the $150. If you think about all the bad service you've gotten from other girls, giving this girl the extra $50 for knowing that you will get good service is a good choice.

That's exactly why I am putting a new set of tires from Costco on my three cars the first of every month (unless that's a Sunday in which case I do it on the second). If you think of all the bad tires I've gotten from the other tire places, giving Costco the extra $$ for knowing that you will get good tires is a good choice.

7th,
I'm not trying to say the girl does not have the right to change her rates. Free country, free market, yada, yada, yada... I was simply trying to determine was this common practice or if I was singled out by this provider. If I was singled out I would have put her on neighborhood watch, that's why I was asking on the board to see what you guys think. To this day she still advertises the same rate so I'm sure SOMEONE is seeing her at that rate. I know I'm living in a dream world when I say this, but I think if she truly raised her rates, she would have corrected the ad to reflect that after I pointed out the discrepancy.

BTW, where in my post did I mention something about bad service from other girls? Are we reading the same post?

   Wayne, I don't know how much more clearer you want me to be? You're acting like she is legitimate business registered with the State of California and you sound like you are on the verge of suing for false advertising! You're taking it too seriously. And if she is charging someone else $100, so be it. Why do you care? If you want to see her, pay her what she asks. Otherwise just let it go and move on.

   And actually you hit it there. Free country, things change. One of my fav RAs found a girlfriend and now only does FBSM.

Recently a girl who just started out and got great reviews, decided she couldn't hack FS and cut back to FBSM.

Another new girl with great reviews got her rent paid and stopped and is now looking for a SDaddy instead.

The sad thing is, both of the girls caught a lot of shit from the idiots here on the forum. That probably had a lot to do with their leaving or cutting back.

   She had a lower price then. She has more demand. She's increasing her prices.

I wouldn't take it personally. This is a professional relationship, there are plenty of other providers.

   She's not the smartest buisness woman out there, a regular is way better than fishing for fresh meat everyday...between LE and all the dip shits...what the hell.
When she tries to up the price the only thing you can do is drop it...she is just trying to shear the sheep a little deeper this time...a 50% increase in the price of anything is a bit much and I would let her know that but I wouldn't take any deal she tried to renegotiate after I told her that her pricing sucks, (more than likely it will turn out to be a 50% drop in service).

   I have whores do this all the time and have been tripped up by it more than once. Another thing they will do is have a RB rate that is like 20/40 bucks higher than their CL rate and I forget to check CL before calling her.

What you should of said is that you only have 100 bucks and will that work.

Forget this upseller and go find another girl. Her loss.

   This happens all the time. Good that she told you before you rolled her way. Her choice to charge what she thinks the market will bear. Your choice to point out her actions to the RB community and to go to one of her competitors.

Good choice to take her information and govern yourself accordingly. Last time I checked you had hundreds of alternatives some of who have to have larger tits, firmer asses and great nookie.

   I would guess she remembered you, knew you were nice (i'm assuming),and thought she could take advantage of you. Glad you saved yourself some money for another day. Sucks that she tried to up-sell you, but ultimately it was her loss...just my thoughts!

   Maybe just maybe she advertises the 100 rate to attract new business. If you have a good time and call back she asks for the 150 because that's what she really wants. If she feels that you don't think enough of her service for an xtra 50 then she doesn't want the repeat business.
She was upfront and told you before, not after you got there. So I don't think she did anything wrong. As for her not returning your message, she told you what she wanted and there is nothing to discuss. She wants 150 to do you. So pay it or don't, it's your money, it's your choice.
