Is anyone else noticing a drop in escort pricing?

[BigK]

I primarily hire in Houston, San Francisco, and Los Angeles.  There seems to be more and more escort providers available in those cities.  I’ve noticed pricing is low as $200 with quite a few at $300 or less.  Some of these guys are newer to the scene and probably trying to build up clientele.  But it does appear to me to be a bit of a trend.

I think has a lot and a lot escorts. But has a lot weird escorts and ugly escorts. I never feel I was able to do that (I thought I wasn’t handsome enough for that) but after to see some guys I change my mind. If u are beautiful and clean you don't need to charge less. (Only if you need a lot the money)
But speaking as a guy from Brazil (where everyone is beautiful) I stay in shock how some guys make money on rm.

I got my first quote at $299 today in Ft Lauderdale.  It's not much of a a discount from the typical $300; but, it's a start!

Depending on who and where you are, the economy is contracting and unemployment is rising. While I haven’t noticed a drop in rates, I suspect some of the new talent are just trying to make ends meet, so to speak.

My range is $300, which works for my choices. Occasionally there are those who ask $400, and if they’re hot enough, I’ll bite. I haven’t noticed this downward trend, however.

I can’t comment on HOU or SFO but when “shopping” recently in Los Angeles I encountered a lot of men asking $400 an hour (oftentimes adding “+ tip“ or “+ Uber“ ). Men I recognized from porn wanted $500 an hour. {These were men found on RM.} Recently (October) in Dallas I encountered $200-$300 a hour but almost everyone wanted me to provide Uber, which easily added another $50 (or more) each way. I’ll refrain from adding my own comment(s) and simply report what I know from my experience.

Those rates are what I generally expect to pay in LA. I think Jack Valor is at least $400. Lot of money there.

Hey, man! Thanks for that follow up. I do not get to tell anyone how to run their business, but I think we can agree that four hundred an hour is a lot of money. And providers (and clients) have to take into account traffic and travel times in LA. I’ve learned that in LA you can pretty much depend on your provider running 15 mins late. Not complaining; just observing.

I am in LA right now and if I have an appointment outcall 3pm I will leave at least 20 minutes before to be on time. 
And has a few guys asking to charge less but like I said if u are good looking u don’t need to charge less. Has a lot ppl abre to pay the right price. 

[MarkBottom2025]

I am in Dallas and will charge $150 as a total bottom for an outcall to a hotel.  Fortunately I do this as a true hobby and do not need to charge high pricing.  If I am on the road for my regular work I can host at my hotel.  I have noticed pricing w some of the men I know in the industry starting to drop.   

[+ KensingtonHomo]

We were just in the Carolinas, and the prices were really uneven. Some guys charge as little as $150 for an erotic massage, and others want $400 for "full service." We ended up getting very sexy massages from two guys who work together: 90 minutes for $195 and we tipped them both because they were great.

Thank you for contributing to this thread.

If you’re an escort, it’s often a good idea to include a link to your online ads as a permanent signature footer when you post just like Brazilian cutie did above.

It might help you in picking up additional business in Dallas and certainly let me know next time you are in Houston.

by the way, is this your ad?

I am paying $300 an hour in Philly to my local versatile provider. No discounts for additional hours. 

[Chien Andalou]

Not in San Francisco. The rates keep going up for very, very unexciting guys. I hire a lot less now because I am not willing to spend that much money for guys who are plain at best. I realize life here is very expensive, but let’s be real. 

[MarkBottom2025]

It also helps that when I travel for work I am not paying for my hotel room, so I don’t have that expense.  

[Pd1_jap]

In the last two years most providers started going up to 400-500 an hour. The past six months many of those providers reached out to me offering a discount. I think the average these days is around $300 again. 

[Braziliancutee]

When the escort charge less he prob does a few guys in the same day. And of course prob will not do the best performance with you. So you guys should think that before to hire cheap guys

I can speak for my self I always try to do the best for my clients and I stay so tired after. And recently I am having a lot clients around (30-35 years) and they have a lot energy.

I've definitely seen lower prices for the newer guys (i agree, largely due to economic reasons like Nue2TheGame said), but for the more experienced guys i've seen their prices hold or a few of them I've seen list price increases for new clients.

Plenty of higher priced escorts see multiple guys in one day too. That's not exclusive to charging less.

Oh I don’t know about that. I know about me. When I am feeling so tired I ask to book for another day. I want make sure my client will be happy and pleased. But I always read the reviews on rm and has some reason to has so many bad reviews there

Lately I’ve noticed rates are all over the place, especially with newer providers. Massages can range anywhere from $160 to $350, and escort services from about $250 to $500.

@Braziliancutee In my experience, appearance only gets someone so far. It’s real skill and professionalism that justify higher prices.

I cannot emphasize this enough. Certainly there are some clients who are superficial and beguiled by physical beauty or are into muscle worship. But a provider’s ability to build rapport, find something attractive about a client, hold a decent conversation, and perform well sexually are all as important or moreso than perfect abs or 15 percent body fat. And the more mature I get, the more those qualities or lack thereof are what justifies the cost.

Exactly!! But I think 500 for just 1h very overprice already. 
If u are good looking, clean, has a good place to host and provide a real good service 350-400 is ok.
