I wonder if it's my sample size, but I've noticed that fair few masseurs who haven't changed their prices for years. Yet it seems that newer entrants are the ones pushing up their prices or entering at the top end of the market. Here in DC, Paul is an old favorite who charges $100 for 60 minutes or even Eli in New York seems to have charged $170 for years (maybe this went up from $160 a few years ago).
