Typical

Seems like BradleyKingXXX and LAGuy69XXX may be having some kind of personal tiff!

Age goes down as price goes up! The fundamental laws of physics.

Definitely some over promising and under delivering within the advertising hype regarding Kevin. (He is a hottie, though.)

I believe the varying experiences related to whether the masseur had a sexual attraction to the writer or did not. That dynamic can and often will change everything during an appointment.

He was ostensibly (okay, obviously) promoting himself on this site about a week ago as an over the moon “client”, got called out, and pulled down the post. His RM “reviews” indicate fantasy rates of $1k per hour or more. I would proceed with great caution.

I never met him, but he sounds like the kind of person of which the world needs more. Anyone who loves and supports animals is a gift to humanity. Will make a donation to the rescue organization.

Hmmm. Was the massage at least competent? I’d travel to him here during his NYC visit on the subway, so south Florida traffic won’t be an issue. 🙂

It’s not “gone”. It’s hidden when he isn’t working and doesn’t want inquires cluttering his phone and bothering him. More masseurs should use that function in my opinion.

I take many fewer fliers on new people than I did at $120-140. I stick to known quantities. If new guys want to build a business they need to provide a “soft opening” rate to build a business and not start at full (high) prices. I have 4-5 regulars that I know and trust who charge $180-$200 for excellent service without tip expectations. I see them regularly without any drama or disappointment on either side. They appreciate the consistent business and respectful encounters and I appreciate the good and reliable service sans ridiculous cash grabs. We all win over and over and over.

You do not owe this person a single word of explanation. Your reasons for not hiring him when he, evidently, needs money, are absolutely none of his business. Just tell him firmly that when you wish to hire him again he will be the first to know, that you have his contact, and you have don’t need reminders. I would be concerned about this relationship. There may be unfortunate reasons he seems to need money. Desperate people can do bad things. It may be best to pause and not engage in his life for some time. This is one reason why I rarely do appointments at my home. I do not want to bring people I do not know well that close to my life.

I’ve never been, but their motto is “come hairy and leave happy”. That’s a very specific word choice in my opinion.

Yes. These are old threads on Jason/Wolf. We miss him in NYC.

Independent service providers set the price they require for their services. This is completely different from waiters in a restaurant who are generally paid a below minimum wage because customer tips are assumed. The comparison is completely absurd. I pay the exact asked price if the service is as advertised. If the service is more than advertised, and I actually wanted the enhanced service, I will pay extra (call it a tip if you must). This policy has worked very well for me for many years.

This looks and sounds like our friend Wolf/ Jason previously from NYC and Dallas and perhaps Las Vegas, who is wonderful.

I don’t know about the tattoo question, but you are mixing up a whole different Eli. Your provided links are to a completely different person from South African Eli Noah, about whom this thread was started. I never saw any tattoo on Eli Noah, and I believe I have seen every inch of him dozens of times. 🙂 This isn’t him. No similarity at all except the name.
