FYI, and Note the Hourly Rate!

[orbital sander]

I can see how an escort of truly exceptional beauty might be able to get a few clients to pay that amount, but any client who would pay that amount would have to be truly obsessed with his beauty, and I really can't even imagining that happening. I think he has to have a screw loose if he thinks anyone's going to pay that fee. Or, put another way, any client who's willing to fork out that amount of cash for him probably has a screw loose himself.

 

Gee...I have met people who spend that much on a bottle of wine with dinner (not me), and think nothing of it. I would bet that he has clients that pay his fee without blinking an eye, just probably not guys like us.

[JoeyBryant]

I almost can't believe (well, that's a lie) how some of you are tearing this guy up over his rates. Because the person has an exorbitant fee, people feel the need to nit pick on every little detail about the guy. Yet he looks about the same as all the photos in the 'gallery' that are posted up all day everyday.

 

We don't know why someone is charging what they do. You know that the main reason why it's generally recommended by top tier providers to charge more is to command better, safer clients? Not saying that $200 an hour clients aren't safe...but it's less risky than $50 an hour. Hell, women have done it for years...but when a guy does it all of a sudden it's forsaken.

 

Me personally, I can't ask for certain amounts because I would rather spend more time with someone for the same amount or less. It'd be way too damn easy for me and I'd be begging them to stay (it happens). There's a difference between being upscale and simply being expensive.

 

I like to use this quote from Amanda Brooks: The difference between expensive and high-end is: the $1,000 omlet at Le Parker Meridien in New York City is expensive. A meal at Alain Ducasse in NYC is high-end. A Nevada brothel worker charging $1500/hr is expensive. An independent escort charging $2000 for three or four hours is considered high-end.

A few things here, : 1) the price you pay does Nothing to guarantee your saftey 2) whetehr you pay $1000 for an omelet or $5, its still just eggs... What you are paying for is the window dressing, and some of us dont need alot of "fluff", just the meat and potatoes. 3) labels dont impress me. whether an escort is considered high-end or basic, what matters is your experience, and you can have a great experience for $200 hr. Some of us dont care about bragging rights to say we paid $1000. Thats pretentious, not SMART....

JJK, I agree with most of what you said here - but I would note that what you might regard as 'fluff' might add to the experience for someone else - for many people, presentation can enhance a dining experience, for example. And there is a difference between a omelet made with the standard 'processed American cheese food' vs an omlete made with, say, sharp Cheddar, fresh asparagus and smoked ham.

All True, but it ALL comes out in the end... and my bank acct stays nice and hefty

As the poster who initiated this thread, I should admit to a curiosity about this Brodie Sinclair fellow. Although he is not ageing perfectly well and has way too many tattos for my taste, I do find him very attractive. If he were a kisser (which he may or may not be), I'd love to see him, though not at $2800 per hour.

 

By the way, Brodie is "versatile" in one sense: he goes every which way on the rate. A few days ago, I saw his ad for DC, where he wanted $1500 an hour (hey, coming down!), but with a three-hour minimum time (oops, rate goes right back up). The most recent version of the ad (below) still says $1500 but has dropped the three-day minimum. Still not reasonable enough to tempt me, but perhaps Brodie is responding to the market.

When he hits the clearance rack for around $100 hr, ill give it a try.

Not the price you pay, the price we charge.

 

Trust me, it's true. There are more lunatics paying $50-$100 an hour than there is paying $300 an hour. Why do you think craigslist and backpage gets such bad rep?

[rocky]

Well he obviously has balls. $700 per hour, has anyone, and mind you I'm a frequent flyer of escorts and have been known to be very generous, paid this much. Let me see, who would I pay that much, well not that has been that's for sure but maybe Oliver Hudson...or some of the hot guys on CSI, but this guy, nope. Hope he has great success and hope he realizes he will get old soon.

[LouieD]

This Brodie guy must be nuts. He must be in another world. His prices are so far out of the realm of reality it's laughable.

 

I think he's rather ordinary looking and needs to spend more time in the gym.

 

I have a feeling he would be a dud in the sack, just going through the motions, anxious to get it over with, collect the dollars and hit the road.

[BewareofNick]

If Brodie wasn't getting that price, he wouldn't keep posting it. If he can get it, more power to him. He's not obligated to lower his prices just because someone can't afford him.

 

He's attractive enough, but no escort is worth $700 to me.

[healthguy]

I remember posting a thread a couple of months ago about the same issue with Mr. Sinclair. Many of you posted responses similar to these at the time.

I also believe that I saw $4,000 at one time when he was going through Doubai??? He also claims Chicago as home, "port of entry" lately. There are so many fine fellows in Chicago that I would see first, and much more affordable and seemingly more fun. I think this escort gets way to much free air time?

[jimboivyo]

his huge choppers are enough to nix him from my list.

 

if he can get it, good on him. free market economy.

I'm not so sure BON. Perhaps in advertising he wants us to THINK he is getting those prices, hence he keeps advertising them. I dont doubt there is someone out there that would pay it, just to be able to say they did, but to me, the guys' looks dont command that pricepoint.

[+ Gar1eth]

I would never hire him, but I think he is just as good looking as a lot of escorts. I get the feeling some people are letting his fees interfere in what they think of his looks. I wonder what his day job is though. Because I wonder if he truly has enough clients to support him through the no hire times.

I dont think anyone is disputing he is a goodlooking man, but there are tons of Gorgeous escorts that charge considerably less, and have been well reviewed as well.

 

For him to charge tHOSE kinds of rates, he would be expected (at least by ME) to bring something different and special to the table and i just am not getting a sense of wHAT that is.

Everything is fairly ordinary.... But as I said before, there is always a client out there that is willing to PAY the asked amount, just so can can say he did. And his perception would be that he got something SPECIAL, which he didnt !

I'll go one further on you JJK. He could be Apollo the Greek Sun God, and I wouldn't pay those rates. But unless I'm mistaken, and I might be, I think you are. If you go back and reread the comments the last time Brodie was discussed, and the comments this time,you will see that a lot of Forum readers don't think he is attractive or in good shape the least little bit.

I think its all perception Gar. I understood the comments to mean they didnt feel he was that attractive enough to warrant him charging his rate, but it didnt discount the fact that he was nice looking. I think theres a borderline difference here? Dont get me wrong, I wouldnt hire him either, but when I use the word unnattractive, I wouldnt be describing HIM.
