Ok, I admit that I have not hired a lot even before the pandemic started. Just every 2/3 months.
Nonetheless, I used to pay (and I am not talking about 2010..) usually 200 and for some special worthy ones 250. Of course even a couple of years ago there were escorts who asked 300 and above, but I never spent that for anybody.
Getting post vaccine itches I have been contacting some guys (and I am not talking about famous ones) and all of them ask for 300 at least, some for 400 and even 500.
I am not judging, good for them if they can get that money in an hour and if there are clients who want to spend that money, but personally I prefer to stick with the (VERY!) few who kept their original rates 😬
