300 is the new norm

[+ Pensant]

Even in second tier markets, I’m increasingly seeing 300 as the rate, even 400! Getting to business class round trip equivalents!

Yeah I tend to agree...when I first started hiring around this time last year, virtually everyone was $200-$250 in Denver. Now there are several that are charging $300. And I've seen a couple raise their prices to that amount. Sometimes they are worth it but often they are not. Oh well..maybe if there is a recession as seems likely, prices will go down again. Just all depends on what people are willing to pay.

For me it means there are a lot of beautiful places I shall never visit, or not as often.

I don't know what airline you're flying, but J-class on most legacy carriers is a lot more than that

What's most curious is these rates being charged by guys with little-to-no reviews and a weak marketing game. As I've always said, the market will dictate if they keep their rates high... If people pay, it'll stay. If not, watch those hourly rates tumble down.

THIS guy quoted me 350 for a one-hour incall in NYC. Nice guy, attractive,he was quick in sending me face pics and some nudes but … 350?

If they are good at $250 you really don't mind $350....If they are bad at $350....they are just as bad at $250. It's the unknown that gets you....So it's the take a chance price that is up for discussion.

I was considering someone who was visiting NYC until i saw $400 . The overnight rate was $2,500. Unfortunately for me, we would not be a match with those rates.

He's fairly new to the site if I'm not mistakeb. He does have a huge IG following. ( No I'm not sending it to anyone). He really is quite beautiful

500 is the overnight rate i pay for some of my regulars... so i wouldn't even consider paying that for an hour.

[BaronArtz]

In his defense, when I objected to 350 he quickly quoted me 300 for the hour. But I feel bad about that. What if I accepted 300? It gets the 'meeting' off to an awkward start. Or am I just too sensitive?

[novaman]

You're too sensitive... When someone quotes me a rate that I feel is too high just say how much you're willing to go with. He'll either agree or not. Sometimes they'll take the lower offer but be prepared for a no reply back also. Don't make anyone a 'must have. I will tip generously if it's a great session.

[jawjateck]

At least you guys are getting actual quotes, which can be accepted or declined. My problem has not been unrealistic pricing. I can usually spot those guys and avoid wasting time. More common in recent years have been the guys who refuse to provide a number or reply "what are you offering?" It's one of the reasons I hit the pause button on the hobby.

[down_to_business]

So instead of hiring once or twice a month you start hiring once or twice a year. Works for me. Nah, who am I kidding... no way I would hire anyone at 300+ an hour.

I guess someone is hiring them.. but sure not me or anyone I know.

Yes, I was recently quoted $450 an hour too.. seems the disappearing rates on rentmen have left some escorts guessing what they should charge.

i agree! i like to have a guarantees amount and then say if you exceed expectations i am very generous. that way they work for commission.

Sometimes that fabulous steak dinner costs more because the meat is perfect...

and sometimes it’s just due to higher overhead. ?

Either way it may result in more evenings at home, re-warming my own sausage. ;-)

It's simply what the market will bear. Rates, like other rents, go by how much money the community has to spend. Like competing to rent in Manhattan., apartment or guy.

 

Rates have skyrocketed in Europe also.

Prague a couple years ago was $100-120. Now it's $160-200. Of course Czechs can't afford that so it's all tourists coming to sample famous Czech porn "stars" (everyone and their uncle).

 

Czechs go to Zurich to work because of more clients but the rate there is $150 (or $100 for a date in the sauna).

 

Surprisingly Germany is always the cheapest in Europe and now is 70E to 100E ($100 to 130). Germany has many hustler bars still and a long tradition of "bahnhofjungen", guys making extra money at the train station men's room. Mostly all online now but renting is in their genes.

 

FWIW:

Medellin, Columbia for full service at Club Tobi is $18 and dates go about that. Bogota is twice as much.

 

and even at $300 renting is still usually less expensive than buying, ie: maintainingor keeping one.

[+ ButchAtl]

I hadn't thought of it before @down to business mentioned it, but it makes sense that since rates are no longer posted on RM, providers can't easier see what their competition is charging. So some "testing" the market might be what they do.

[jawjateck]

For the guys who say "make me an offer", some are clueless about market pricing but others have a number in mind yet decline to name it, hoping the client will propose a larger number.

A cute boy in Nashville wants $300. Good luck.

That’s an incredible deal!

Yes, you'd be too sensitive not to take the deal. Do it!

1. You're too sensitive. 350 vs 300 is no big deal. Union scale is 300 for 9's and most will do 250. 350 is porn star prima donas.

2. Your problem will come in if the guy's really good and you want to repeat. Then it will be 350 vs 300 every single time.

 

It never gets cheaper.

Recently, I made an appt with my idea of the perfect escort; at least in terms of looks/body. He quoted $350 which I was more than willing to pay. However, a couple of hours prior to the appt, he texted to say that he’d need an Uber and that I would need to arrange/pay. I would have gladly paid $400 but no way in hell was I arranging transportation for his business. I canceled.
