There is an explanation for this sadly
[QUOTE=Jnpr30;2178332]To the extent there is an acceleration of price upwards in the last year (as compared to price increases that were happening anyway before 6/30/17), one could argue the registration issue had as much impact as the BBBJ ban. The former was a tangible issue for the girls; and they may feel they need to get paid a bit more in return for what they had to "invest" in terms of time, effort, money, other. The latter is just another lever they can pull in the price negotiation.
And anecdotally it makes sense. Reports between June 30 to Dec 31 were more benign than in the last few months.[/QUOTE]Reports between June 30,2017 to Dec 31,2017; were arguably more benign due to comments for reporters to edit or amend reports to remove references to no condom activities.
The trend in this case is not your friend
[QUOTE=McAdonis;2178251] Like you, I am not confident that the trend will reverse. With the previous complainers-well they always complained. I am started to hear complaints from mongers who I perceive as the easy-going type. Guys who used to be huge fans of Sharks believe Sharks is no longer the safehaven it once was. That it joins Palace, Mainhattan, and Oase.[/QUOTE]In this, sad case, the trend is not your friend.
I agree, I feel more and more, the services are no longer there for 50 bucks, let alone 100 bucks when opting for the one hour. I am finding more and more girls are insisting on 150 bucks for one hour. For certain nationalities it is 200 for the one hour even. Catastrophe.
One part of me cannot blame them. If the value of a 50 bucks in 2002 is worth 60 to 70 bucks now then you can see the resistance in the mental state of girls providing these intimate services for the money earned. So they restrict the services or the time allowed to make up for the lowered value of their 50 buck basic service.
Like Jnpr30 rightly said, I remember you got a lot for your 50 several years ago but this is less the case now.
Both Oase and Sharks are not the safe havens that were touted. I do not know much on the NRW scene so I cannot comment there. Many a Shark will not get off their ass unless there is a hundred involved (sadly, that hundred is not laying inches of schlong meat pipeline).
You must have a deep relationship or connection with the girl before the service and time allowed meets the 50 for full 30 minutes.
A sad indictment indeed.
