You guys have saved me a bunch of money and disappointment.
 

Yes, I can confirm this is Eason who works out of G Man spa. I've only seen him once but I will repeat. 

It would probably be even easier if there were a sub-category for the NYC spas and then all of threads would be easier to find (maybe...). There are already multiple threads about individual NYC spas here but they get lost among the other misc. threads and then people start new ones.

The original 27 Men was previously Sunny Boy on 27th closer to 7th Ave. Ben left SuperMen Spa to go there and eventually take over. Ben’s an upstanding manager, though I miss him as a masseur.

@ziggyyy1994, In replying to your questions: keep in mind that some activities are illegal in NY and we don’t want to post anything that could possibly jeopardize the licenses of the Spa or Masseur. 

Uhm, $30 on a $65 "thera-sensual" massage is not that great... A $65 massage is pretty cheap in and of itself so I would consider a 100% tip more appropriate if it's "thera-sensual." If I were going to a more traditional spa, then 45% would be a decent tip but not here. JMHO.

I have used this website a couple of times. https://utatane-gm.com/english/ 
It's basically a way for independent masseurs to advertise their availability to a wider audience. That said, YMMV from one experience to another. For example, I hired one guy who gave a very light massage and was otherwise just a "cuddle buddy" and the session ended with a HE. The second guy gave a great massage and we ended up having sex. I wouldn't necessarily expect sex each time though.
The one thing that is pretty consistent is the massage is given with both parties nude and you will start off by taking a shower together. Payment is handled at the beginning of the session. Some of the masseurs speak English (various levels). I'd recommend using Google Translate to view their profiles.

Update:
I moved my appointment to 730pm for 70 min.  Made quite a few changes and they were pretty accommodating. I was meeting up with family so my time was limited, hence me wanting to get the massage right after the flight. 
Had some trouble locating the exact shinjuku location but eventually got there around 10 minutes late. I booked Shogo, whose pictures were accurate, and turned out to be a cute bottom boy. Limited but adequate english. Paid up front 
I was sweating when I got there because of the rushing so i took a quick rinse. When I got back to the room, he was naked waiting for me. 
Overall, massage was decent but the time went by quick, especially since i got there a bit late. He was a bottom and definitely made it a point to compliment me as much a possible, with subtle teasing here and there. 
Left pretty satisfied but wish i had more time to enjoy it. Mostly my fault with my schedule but would book again for sure. 
Now i need some suggestions for Hong Kong

While it's true that tipping basically doesn't exist in Japan, my experience with Redline was an exception to that rule. The guy I had at Redline had lived overseas and had definitely picked up some more "western philosophies" like pushing for tips, giving the sad story of talking about all of his bills, etc. I think I gave him an extra ¥2000 or so and said "sorry, that's all I have on me." I did not have this experience with other providers.

You communicate directly with the masseur(s). Start off by translating your emails into Japanese before sending them. If they speak English, they can respond accordingly, but I think it's a nice touch, if not respectful considering you are (will be) in their country. Book a few days in advance if possible, or at least a day in advance. I probably tried a couple of guys before having success, but that's normal even in my home city. I met both of the guys I hired at my hotel. It was very convenient and saved me from having to travel. Either way, they charge a fee - a travel fee for them to come to you or a fee to use their room. If you are not comfortable finding your way around in Japan, hosting in your room is probably a better choice. The Japanese address is very different than western address system. Google Maps is pretty good but even that isn't perfect in Japan. lol

Wonder what’s up with his “Go to hell!“ comment on the third 5 star review.

Thanks good to know! It was $40 tip, $60 massage - sorry for not clarifying. I'll keep the 100% standard in mind if its more than therapeutic, I don't go often as my salary isn't very high, but I like to enjoy massages every now and then.

Did you give a $100 tip or was the total you gave $100 ($65 for the massage and $35 for the tip)? A $100 tip is great, but $35 on a $65 massage (or $30 on a $70 massage, however the math works out to be $100 total) is not good unless it's a strictly therapeutic massage at a "regular" spa.
Yes, a 100% tip is normal for anything more than therapeutic. That would be my starting point, depending on the experience.

If you got anything more than therapeutic, 50% on their prices is not an adequate tip, dude. 

Not so new. I saw him a few years ago. I think I contacted him via mintboys or friendboy? Something like that. He had a few ads with different pics actually. His massage was very basic, no skills to speak of. I think he said he's bi but it felt more like just gay for pay. (I had to provide my own ending.) He kept bugging me to meet again too. I did not repeat the experience...

Check this thread where @urbanfetish posts how to stop the emails:
 

I would never discuss it with a masseur in a spa. A private masseur, sure, but not in a spa. I use body language to convey my interests - lifting my ass when he's massaging it (or nearby), spreading my legs wider, again when he's in that area. And I will "let" my hand graze his groin or inner thigh to let him know I'm interested in more than a regular massage.  If he doesn't respond, I don't pursue any further.
