Boston rates

[socurious]

What do you guys think is the rate for an overnight in Boston or Chicago ? We all know it depends on the provider. But an estimation would be very interesting to see. Thanks un advance.

Do providers really change their rates based on the city they are in? I could see them charging a bit less if they really want a client that day but otherwise I would think they ask the same no matter where they are.

I can see an out-of-town escort inquiring about rates to determine whether his rates are in line with others in the market.

My approach is to charge the same no matter the city. Some cities are too expensive for me to make a decent profit after accommodations overhead, so I don’t visit them 🤷‍♂️ 

Clients don’t like different prices for one city vs another.

In Canada when I went, I charged less because escorts there don't charge as high as here. Clients are likely to spend less. It was Toronto.

I do think different markets have slightly different rate structures, for example NYC I think has a higher rate structure than Boston (for local talent).  If a provider is traveling from city to city, then I agree it does not make sense for them to be changing their rates for every city.   Each market has local economics including cost of living, housing, etc.

It's not overnight, but a frame of reference since I was just there this weekend - each was scheduled for 2 hours:

Appointment 1:   Left Boston and went to NYC without communicating with me until I went to confirm our Saturday time on Friday night.   He was $350/hr, so $700 for 2 hours but left town without telling me

Appointment 2:  After getting dis'd by Appt 1 on Friday night, I arranged another for Saturday - no show.   He didn't reach out to me until 10 hours after our scheduled time - and then wanted to get together on Sunday.   He was $350/1st hour and $300/2nd hour, so $650 for two hours but didn't show.

Appointment 3:  After Appt 2 no show, I reached out to an "Available Now" who was $450/hr or $2,000 overnight.   I paid the $900 for two hours and he far exceeded my expectations, and I left him some favorable comments in a thread about him here.   I will note that I would not have paid the overnight price since I've paid that much or less for weekends with others who have been great times.

In NYC, I've paid 600 up to 1200. No correlation in service quality with price.

In Chicago, I've been quoted between 1000 and 1500 for an overnight by established providers.

A warning - this sample includes a 1.5K guy who thinks an overnight is 6 hours.

600 is very low for an overnight. The guy was either desperate, naive or too nice. Perhaps you are just hot or he met you before (and even if he knew you is still low). And NYC? Lmao.

In Vienna last year, I hired a guy whose rate was 150 Euros for an hour or 200 Euros for overnight (late night through early morning, about 8 hours).  I hired him for the overnight.   As discussed in previous threads, escorts will structure their rates to steer clients towards the type of session the escort prefers, and to discourage clients from booking sessions the escort doesn't enjoy as much. 

I have never been to Boston, so I can't contribute to the original question.

[+ ThroatCummer]

I've born and raised and live (part time now) in Boston. $300 to $350 is standard nowadays.  $2,000 for an overnight. 

Some will be higher based on their "status" if they're well known etc. I have found one or two lower around $200-$250 but they're locals who are a little hard up for work.

Yea, I have noticed and seen that European prices in general are fractions of what they charge here in the USA.  Very good looking, very well established escorts, all for $150 to $200 per hour (USD) and sub-$1,000 overnights.  

Capitalism. Supply and demand. That's basically it.

He's a Yale student I met up there. Hot and atheltic. He just enjoys doing it and welcomes the weekend visits to NYC where he is wined and dined.

Dude you got it backwards.

Europe is less capitalist than the U.S. Providers there have free health care, a social safety net, etc. High taxes prevent the emergence of a wealthy professional class (by American standards).

That's why European escorts are cheaper.

No, that's backwards.  In Europe, the industry has no barriers, not criminalized, not regulated, and rates are freely published.  It's a win for the provider and the consumer. 

In America, the industry is criminalized, rates are forbidden to be published, and a high barrier to entry since there are so few places to advertise.  That's not capitalism.  It's government interference "for your own good", whatever you want to call that.

That’s what it is here in San Diego. It’s really not that much different across the continental USA. Maybe slightly less in some markets, more in the $250 range. The biggest variability is in large, high cost of living metro areas. Boston is pricey. Not NYC pricey, but it’s not Omaha either.

$350/hr (or more) is the nearby LA market right now. $350 is on the steeper side for SD. Some of my peers command that price and get it, but we do more work at the $300/hr range. There are always exceptions charging $400+ but those are mostly travelers from other high price markets and I question how much business they are doing at that range - at least here in SD.

I asked a local escort buddy recently what he charges for overnights. He just did one in Long Beach for his standard ON rate: $2k. I was surprised because I thought I was overcharging at $2k thinking $1k-$1.5k was closer to standard for ON services, with $1k being quite low. I guess a lot more of my peers are charging $2k than I thought. My definition of an overnight, by the way, is baseline 12 hours, with plenty of room to negotiate longer or shorter depending on the client’s needs. 6hrs is hardly an overnight, IMHO, but that’s a discussion to continue on the thread already dedicated to the topic of overnights.

^This. US rates would be way lower if we had similar laws and cultural norms as Europe. But we don’t. We’re a bunch of horny puritans  🤷‍♂️

^ Quick note here: he’s doing it for the $, not the stuff or experiences you buy during your time together. Those things are ultimately for the CLIENT’S benefit because they facilitate a better experience for the client. Wining and dining can be enjoyable for sure, but make no mistake: Food, beverages, entertainment, clothes, fancy hotels, or any client expense for that matter - does NOT factor into your hired man’s compensation. We don’t charge less because you bought us a nice jacket or a steak. $ is what we need to pay our bills. That’s why we do the work. Steak won’t pay for our car insurance. Having a good connection with the client or genuinely enjoying a nice cocktail with him is just a nice bonus. There, I’ve said my peace. Until the next time this particular point comes up in a thread.

I didn't say it the right way, you're correct. At least I think we're talking about the same thing.  My point was that the supply and ease of doing this work in europe (and south america, asia, etc.) makes those rates much lower than the USA.  You know how much fun you can have with the hottest guys in Rio for pennies on the dollar?

It says you think culture is more important than economics.

 Boston's hotels are expensive and demand for escorts is higher, keeping prices high.

Boston also suffers from a lack of providers in general. Not may visit for work (as escorts) and there isn't much variety, especially for the size of the metro area, you would think it is more like New York or Miami but it really is not.  

I speak from someone who hired when I lived in Boston and could never find the right ones and also as someone who has a partner now who is an escort, so.   He frequently will travel to Boston because the work there is good for him (very jacked late 30's latino) and he can make a lot in a short amount of time.  So to any escorts reading this, go. The only issue is hotels tend to be crazy expensive so that will eat into profits a lot if you don't have a regular client base or pre-planned meetings.
