In Pattaya you can get an undesirable girl for 500 baht.

If you want a desirable girl then you will pay more than that.

End of story.

No, I do often get desirable girls for 500 baht - to specify by 'desirable' I mean cute and under 25 (trying to use a more universal definition here - I certainly find many 30-40 year olds doable, but I wouldn't really call them 'desirable').

Not yet a buyers market. Wait another 2-3 months for that.

On soi 6, it's fair to say that most gals will prob go for 500. Pattaya is a big place with lot's of venues including all of walking street, but to say that 500 is the going rate for ST in Pattaya is a bit misleading. Getting a hot freelancer on walking for 500 during this time of year would be pretty difficult for the average monger. Or a gogo girl from walking for 500? I doubt it

Soi 6, small beer bars away from the main action, and beach girls - 500 ST all day.

Oh, and you think it's exploitation! What about all the times Thais have tried to exploit you? Nothing wrong with being shrewd in LOS!

I just said that taking advantage of a situation that "squeezed bargirls out of work" is closer to exploitation than to buyer market.

Nothing more and nothing less than this.

Regarding being exploited by Thais: I have a company that deals with 7 countries (Italy, Germany, Brazil, Thailand, Vietnam, Singapore and Malaysia) and Thais didn't exploit me more than people of any of the 6 nations I mentioned above.

Nevertheless even if I would have been exploited by a thai businessman (or taxi driver or whatever you want) this does not entitle myself to exploit someone else just because she/he shares the same passport.

Regarding what you wrote about the "terrible worldwide deflation and depression" that in some ways "squeezed more and more Thai women out of work" and made the pay-for-pussy scene "something of a buyers market", I think that taking advantage of this is something closer to exploitation than to free market.

I am not questioning what you wrote but I can tell you that the vast majority of farangs pays 700 baht for short time in soi 6.

It would be interesting to take a poll here about this issue, but I do think that far more sex-sessions are charged at 500 baht plus barfine than 700 baht plus barfine in Soi Six or at beer bars.

I wonder if any mongers would care to comment. I don't think we have the ability to create a poll on this forum.

Seriously, apart from a Perfect Body (means less than 19% Body fat), a very handsome face and a dick that can go on a very long time? your biggest hurdle will be to get a work permit.

Well, the bargirls already tell me I'm very handsome, so I'll just need some liposuction, viagra, and a work permit?

The price they request does not have to be the price they receive, Italy1974. I always pay 500 baht plus barfine on Soi Six, and while I don't often go to regular beer bars to barfine girls, when I do I always pay 500. Sure, once in a while one will ask for 700 but I just say 'no thanks'. Nearly always they come down to 500 quite readily. In the few cases when they haven't I consider myself lucky, as girls who try to overcharge generally offer very poor service.

Keep in mind the economy, Italy1974. We are in a terrible worldwide deflation and depression. Fewer and fewer people can afford to travel to Pattaya, and more and more Thai women are being squeezed out of work. It is in fact something of a buyers market right now. If a girl asks for 700, and you say 'no thanks I'll only give 500', she knows there are dozens of other girls right outside ready to go, while the chance of another walking wallet coming in and picking her out is really not all that great. In any case if she goes with you for 500, it will all be over soon and she'll be on display again for the next customer, so she looses very little by accepting the market price.

Opebo,

I am not questioning what you wrote but I can tell you that the vast majority of farangs pays 700 baht for short time in soi 6.

Therefore, as we are talking about going prices for short time in Pattaya I think I am not wrong writing that 700 baht is the ongoing price.

Regarding what you wrote about the "terrible worldwide deflation and depression" that in some ways "squeezed more and more Thai women out of work" and made the pay-for-pussy scene "something of a buyers market", I think that taking advantage of this is something closer to exploitation than to free market.

I don't think my life would be any better if I save 200 baht for each short time in soi 6 so I will keep paying 700 hundreds and giving the girls (if they deserved) a tip.

Yes, however very small market for the ladies. You'd make more money selling your ass to the Faggots.

Ah. Well, I'm pretty damn straight and will never be that flexible.

Is it really that difficult to get a work permit in Thailand?

Thanks in advance,

500 baht is absolutely not the going rate for short time in Pattaya.

It may be that some street walkers on the beach road would oblige for that amount (I don't know as it is not my cup of tea) but, for example, in soi 6 bars and at Welkom Inn the going rate is currently 700 baht plus the short-time room fee (300 baht).

Similar prices are requested by girls in beer bars.

At Dao Cafe, Kinnaree Club, Jade House, Far East a gogo and TQ (I have been recently in all those places) the going rate for short time is 1000 baht.

500 baht is the going rate for short time in Pattaya,

Although a good amount of girls will go for 500 ST, I don't think it's fair to say it is the going rate. One should always aim for this price, but be prepared to fork out up to 1000 ST. Super sexy girls won't go for 500 ST as they don't need to.

I made this post only to prevent possible frustration when negotiating for fellow mongers when visiting pattaya.

I wonder what your source is. Although I haven't followed the Cambodia threads at ISG for about 6 months, prior to that it seemed that 5 dollar sex was easy to get in PP. Maybe things have changed of late.

Personal experience, PP.

I recall a comment in the PP section that Khmer ladies were of a kinder disposition than TGs. Even should that be so, it is concievable that TGs have the overall better service, as you claim.

I don't know about 'kinder', but I've always had far more fun with Thai girls than Kmer. The only good prostitutes in Cambodia are the Vietnamese - in my opinion sexier than the Kmer and very good but rather mercenary service. Alas it always seems like there are fewer and fewer Viets around and more and more Kmer in the business on each successive visit.

As for Pattaya, I wonder what one can get for only 500 baht. If it is the type of TG we see in the photos here at ISG, I can only say that prior to seeing them I did not believe in extra terrestrials.
What is it that makes you feel Pattaya is more pleasant than Bangkok. Isn't it the former that has a reputation for criminal elements?

500 baht is the going rate for short time in Pattaya, PP. This includes freelancers and beer bar girls. I like Pattaya better than Bangkok for the obvious reason that it is a pleasant beach resort - fresh air, not too much traffic, and not as hectic as Bangkok. Cooler too. Bangkok is a hot, dirty, polluted, workaday city full of ordinary people. Pattaya is a town made up mostly of prostitutes and johns - a paradise.
