just a quick reply to Doombringer's post
[QUOTE=Doombringer321]Member 3354, I read your report earlier however I'm astounded by certain things like why did you decide to pay that much money in the first place and second of all could it be possible that you got hussled out of some dough. Those prices seem offly outreageous to me most woment from any newspaper could be had for $40 and hour and they are FINE the prices you are disscussing are almost ridiculous unless you are going through [url]http://www.firstclass.com.ec/[/url] whose main purpose seems to be to take foreigners money just because they have.[/QUOTE]Doombringer,
I agree that prices are high when compared to newspapers, or even to some of the smaller houses in the South(?) of the City. But these clubs -515, Doll House, etc - are for gringos who have limited ability to negotiate in Spanish. I did go with a business friend who speaks Spanish, but again, we;re obviously foreigners, these are obviously top price tourist clubs and you take your licks.
Compared with prices in Seattle/SF or in some of the other places I do business, if this is price gouging, well, it's what I have to live with. 48 hours in a country and you have two heads arguing.
