... Why the hell aren't they online shopping for someone to hire??

 

That's what I don't get about the "wanted list." Why not just answer ads. I guess the idea is for the client to "advertise" that he is looking and then a logged-in escort can contact him, but that seems a little inefficient.

As one who has use the "wanted list" (and no.... my prices were what the average market was seeking) - the types of guys who responded came across more as the same ones who (*unfortunately) in many cities advertise on Backpage. I am not into the thug type nor underage twinks etc... and yet it was rare to find someone not of that type answering. In a larger market such as NYC you can find some interesting guys, especially guys who are also actively looking (to be hired), and it can save some time especially when you are in a new city or area. If a particular guy answers, I take time to check him out, see if he has been reviewed before, compare the photos etc... (sort of what we do often enough here).

I agree esp re NYC, I have occasionally used this feature just for the heck of it, also offering the going rates, the first time just to see what kind of replies I would get. And, yes, as Adriano said many were the same guys from BP, BUT I discovered there is a whole market of untapped hidden gems, newbie Coll students grad students guys having trouble making ends meet etc, who do NOT escort and would NEVER put themselves out there by running an Ad. But they WOULD if financially strapped, ANSWER one. I found a first-timer, cute struggling student/actor/waiter a few years ago who had never run any kind of Ad, a total non-pro who REALLY had never done this before ( yes really wasn't just a line I can tell, it took MUCH cajoling to get him to even meet me and make the appointment) and it was great. In fact I STILL see him several times a year. As far as the cheapos posting there go, IDK how they make out, but I'd be curious to know what they wind up with lol.

a little off topic but an observation.....the ### of RB ads currently for Phoenix increased a bit I assume related to Super Bowl weekend biz.....the ### of ads on men4rent, not at all.....not sure how many escorts or clients go to men4rent anymore for much of anything.....not pleased when one sometimes finds an ad on men4rent to pursue further only to often find / notice that it's an "inactive" ad anyway....a bummer of a website in a variety of ways.

More like Priceline

 

I've tried it during brief layovers in Kansas City and San Diego, and a couple of times in LA. Always a last resort where I didn't know a local or nobody I knew was available. I offered the local basic rate (not bottom fishing, but not premium) because it is a craps shoot. I'd rather give a big tip at the end of a good session (and always do), than pay too much (and no tip) for a disappointing session.

 

I disagree about it being a race to the bottom. I see it as an opportunity for escorts to fill gaps in their schedules. They decide whether to answer the ads, which in my opinion makes it fair. Also, they get to enter (and view) ratings of the customers they contact. One guy told me he'd taken a chance on me because of favorable comments left by a previous hire. (I also have a negative review.)

 

Quality of respondents was all over the place. And yes, lots of "thugs" and "twinks" -- not what I asked for and not my type. In LA I heard from a guy who has been favorably reviewed on daddy's, and has some fans in the forum. He offered to spend the night with me at LAX for a very low rate. Unfortunately, at the time he had a full beard and I have zero attraction to lumberjacks. In SD I hired a spectacular newby who only escorted for a few weeks before shipping overseas. He was so happy when I tipped $100 at the end of our session that he reciprocated by tipping me. ;)

 

So, it's a last resort that's better than going to bed horny. If I could make more specific offers and only matching escorts (as determined by what they've published in their profiles) were allowed to reply, I'd use it often.

Sounds like offering $ on grindr. I'm sure it would work well in a city with a big gay community like NYC but here in the DC area we all know each other.

 

I would leave it to professionals, not many guys who simply need money have the stomach to have sex with guys overweight are.

Many of us don't have the time for that kind of begging, besides don't ever trust what someone you are paying money to be with you tells you. Maybe he was playing the "starving" card just to get a tip.

I never SAID he was starving lol, NOR did he, he did not play that card. I grew up here and could tell the diff between a 11th ave hooker and a hotel hooker by the time I was 14 lol and by 15 I was getting into Village piano bars unchecked just by wearing a turtleneck and dress jacket. I can SMELL when I'm being played thank you. NOR did I beg btw. His reluctance came from what you yourself mentioned, a non pro first timer's fear of being able to do it with someone he may, to be frank, be totally grossed out by. (I maintain a 32inch waist by forcing myself REALLY forcing myself into the gym 5X a week, and by eating about HALF what I really WANT lol.) And after several conversations and meeting for coffee, (he bought his own) we had our first appointment. He was a fresh faced (gay) young man who also btw turned down my offers to intro him to "other" clients. He has transitioned into a bearded tie wearing professional but we still see each other, sometimes I give him $$, sometimes a gift, and sometimes I just take him to a nice dinner before. *Motto of these boards, to each his own :-)

I tried it once a couple of years ago. And had the opposite experience in that the only guys who answered it were way older than the age I requested. Maybe I should move to NY. :-)

I suppose sheer density of population is a factor re your odds of getting lucky :-) Back before they did away with their "male companions" board I also found that Craigs List was an occasional good source of un-advertised guys. (unless of course they murdered you as some did) But even now if you go to the "men seeking men" boards and search the word "generous" lol they'll still pop up :-)

When I hear about an actor prostituting himself I just think he's not making enough on his own, my mistake.

 

You should write a book about your amazing life.

If you're in such a great shape why do you pay for sex, you should be able to get it for free.

Please don't take this site too personal.

 

Everyone who responded to my offers had an ad on the website.

I assume that's a requirement for participation.

 

Yes, unless they have a membership (email and password to log in) and check that list.

LOL my BOD? I can work my ass off on that. But FACE? (my prof says 40's don't know WHY I still lie lol) but I'm in my 50's now and there's NOOOOO hiding it. AND I refuse to have "work" like many of my buds who look ridiculous (and asian) now, MEN should stay away from surgery. And I DON'T have to tell anyone here HOW invisible this age bracket is in any cruise bar setting. We blend into the walls. I like younger guys and NONE of the ones I look at look back. (unless I happen to look like a friend of their Dad's they know) THAT'S why I pay :-)

 

Please don't take this site too personal.

 

Good advice and I will take it thanks :-) *sorry I tried to throw up my pic here but it says I don't permission to post attachments :-)?? http://postimg.org/image/8srrz0795/

I've actually been with two escorts who ended up in jail for murder. And that was in the days before CL. One advertised in the Wash Blade and the other worked for a popular agency in Philly. So you can meet murderers anywhere!

That's true yes. I only said that because (here NYC) we've had many murders publicized involving men they met on CL. From a well know radio host to a wealthy young Wall St. guy etc. (and in most cases it WASN'T a first time stranger meet-up, it was a REPEAT, so there was that false sense of security thru history that we all feel) You just never know.

I've used wanted list postings a few times. I generally use it in 2 situations.

 

1. I'll post a few days before I travel to a new city, especially if it's a smaller city with fewer escort options because (as others noted) sometimes you get responses from guys who don't have ads up. In fact, I've had some excellent sessions like this.

 

2. When an escort cancels on me and I'm trying to find a replacement. This is especially helpful when there's a large escort selection (like in NYC), and I'm trying to narrow my choices. I put up a "right now" post while I'm browsing the many escort ads and trying to make a decision. Sometimes a guy who I'm interested in will respond before I choose someone else. I met one former EOTY the first time like this.

Nothing wrong with this marketplace allowing guys to meet up and make whatever exchange is beneficial to the both of them. If both parties agree and get something out of it, does it really matter that it isn't the model you personally prefer to use? I definitely wouldn't designate someone a loser just because the Escort E-Bay Model works for them.
