Venezuelans Undercutting Venezuelans
[QUOTE=Frogg;2393163]There must be more Venezuelans showing up than Americans. I've noticed the prices have dropped from when I first visited Medelland almost three years ago (early 2017). Back then, I was being quoted 50K-60K, now the highest I've heard is 40 K. The other day, a smokin hot Vene asked me 35 K, and we're talking pornstar quality, not over the hill. I was glad to help her with pay some bills.[/QUOTE]More Venezuelans showing up than Americans, not sure what you mean here, are you saying there are more American Mongers showing up than Venezuelans? As far as customers for all of the SW's in El Centro, it's my guess that over 98% of the customers are locals, versus foreigners.
As far as pricing, were those prices for SW's you were getting up to almost three years ago? I have never gotten quotes from any of the SW's in EL Centro in the 50 to 60 K range for a rato. I have been quoted as low as 15 K up to 35 K by the Colombians within the last three years. Pricing does fluctuate with the SW's as you know, especially when they quote foreigners, thinking that the foreigner might not have a clue as to what the going rates are, and I believe there are a lot of clueless mongers in El Centro. I experience the inflated price quoting from time to time, and can't fault the SW's for trying, but when I call them on it, they don't like it, and I typically don't go with them, unless they can convince me otherwise.
I believe it was a good market for the Venezuelans up until about a year and a half ago, as they would undercut the Colombians and steal their customers away from them. Now the Venezuelans are having to undercut one another, in addition to the Colombians, and because of the sheer numbers of Venezuelans showing up at ground zero, the prices are going down further as you experienced. As I stated in my post, a Venezuelan told me the other day that there were Venezuelans quoting as low as 10-15 K, not the cream of the crop of course, but the Fuglies.
So just imagine what a bonanza it is for guys that will go with anything that moves and pays 15 K for a fuglie, plus 5 K for a room, there at 20 K or about $ 6 USD.
Strict policy with prostitution
I'm travelling to MDE tomorrow and just saw the Airbnb house rule "strict prostitution policy". I'm sure that I can handle it. This is Latin America after all. Has anyone had similar experience?. Or any advice how to deal with it.
That chance that what she said was true
[QUOTE=Turgid;2393089]There is always that chance (it may be remote) that what she said was true.[/QUOTE]Yeah maybe except, don't they have socialized medicine in Romania? I'm about 90% sure that they do, as well as in Germany.
