I too am not pleased with the price hikes.

BUT, the good news is exchange rate has moved in our favor so paying for many services have not gone up when paying with Pesos.

Example: paying for the girls is constant because their peso prices have gone up 20% but the exchange rate has gone up 10% - so the net price increase is 10% in pesos.

I pay for hotel Cascadas in pesos and the gals in pesos.

If the prices keep going up I am sure they will start loosing business. Example: I may reduce my frequency or length of hotel stays.

Considering the exchange rate being in favor of USD. What is the going rate in pesos for girls?

I'm still a newbie in Tijuana, but unlike Asia -- my impression was that everything was being paid for via USD.

Didn't seem like pesos was used much.

Like if girls are not budging on $100 usd, what is the equivalent in pesos? Obviously not an exact exchange rate otherwise no benefit.

Lengthy report on the Adelita murder written up by an accomplished writer for the New Jersey Star-Ledger (largest newspaper in New Jersey). Was just published last week. Fascinating article. Towards the end there's a fairly big surprise on the nature of the murder that even I didn't know about (and I was in Tijuana literally the day after it happened and know a couple of girls who were friends with the victim). Made what was already a sad story even sadder. Also, dude who wrote the article met up with Luke Powell, who apparently showed him around the club and Zona Norte a bit.

Is a very good read. Thank you Sir.

I don't think they are hurting for business. Every time I go down, they always have packed tables of dudes getting buckets of beers and bottle service. I don't drink in the clubs and only for touch and feel. I went to a bar / restaurant in Tijuana with other locals and the bottle service for Don Julio 70 and misc. Food came out to $220-250. We were both wasted and she couldn't remember what happened the night before. I could recall details better than when I'm on weed, but alcohol killed my performance.

This is pretty much the whole ballgame, I think. There's still plenty of people that flood down there on the weekend, who think that even the raised prices are a steal. Unless you've got serious game, there's nowhere in SoCal where you and your bros can go get blitzed and bang a stripper for about $200.

I remember going to an out of state Strip Club like 10 years ago, getting completely smashed with a few friends and buying random people drinks, and then laughing incessantly when the bar tab came back. We each dropped $100, and the next night, when we went back to get drunk again and watch naked girls dance, the waitresses got into an argument with the hostess about who's rotation it actually was to serve us. We did this trip four more times until it became a scheduling nightmare for everyone involved. Wish we had known then about what was available just south of the border.

Well HK management probably didn't think about this. But when I am in the mood for a couple of drinks, I have no money left for the chicas. And the reverse is also true. When I in the mood for sex, I have no money for drinks.

So if HK ever wonder why they are selling less drinks, someone explain it to them. Some HK fuckhead in management came up with the idea of telling girls they can get $100 to lure more girls. Well, the same fuckhead forgot to realize that it leaves us guys with less money for drinks.

Maybe they should have dynamic pricing like Uber and if it is super busy charge more for drinks. Also what the ladies charge is totally negotiable and if parties don’t come to agreement walk away. When I first went like a decade ago, I used to tell all the ladies $60 and when they didn’t bite, I sat down and watched the performers. Eventually a lady walked toward me and I said $60 and she said sure and we went arriba. I’m sure they all talk and know which marks are willing to pay for services. They all have bills at the end of the day.

They already lost my money on bar girls. When it was 60 it was doable. For the 80 to 100 it is now I'd rather keep my money.

Just what luke needs. At this point he may not even be allowed into Mexico anymore never mind Hong Kong.

Definitely! The key is paying with pesos, I pay for everything in pesos, but I live here so its as easy as withdrawing money from the ATM. I guess the only downside of using pesos is that it feels like play money and its easy to lose track of how much you can actually spend. It's not a huge difference, but it does add up over time, especially if you hit the bars often (I go once or twice a week).

Before CoVid there was always a steady stream of HK girls going to the hotel's front and back doors. In the last 3 months I noticed a serious decline of girls taken to the hotel. A few of the hottest ones like Frieda, Lydia, Sasha, Suki ect start work earlier and stay longer, but are still not doing much business. If they reduce session prices down to $60-70, they could do 3 x as much business. I know a few good-looking regulars who give me fairly good sessions at discount prices. Ask the girls you like. You'd be surprised how many would take low offers and give close to GFEs.

CPB standard procedure is to run them through secondary if they use a expired passport. I had a passport card that lost & I found later. I applied for a new passport, but did not know if had been cancelled. The CBP did not hassle me. They just checked my info. If is your first time they will simply let you go. But you can be fairly certain that it was recorded. So chances are they will hassle you if you try again Your best option is to go to a passport center. UCSD has ones and apply for passport is quite easy their. Just take your receipt of application and they will accept it with a drivers license.

No, you'd never get fined for trying to cross with an expired passport LOL. They'd just put you though additional procedures to prove you're a citizen. I've never been through it myself but have heard it can take anywhere from a few minutes to perhaps a couple of hours or more.

Yeah, my passport expired just last spring (2020) during the height of COVID which was a real pain. But I applied for renewal late last year when processing times got back closer to normal and had the renewed passport back in time for my next trip. So maybe if you don't plan on going back for a long time, try to re-apply right after you come back from this trip. Worst case, if you really want to go to Tijuana during the processing time, take your driver's license, explain that your passport is in the process of being renewed (which is actually the truth), and just pay the bribe. They'll still let you in from what I've heard.

Sunday mornings around 8, 9 am were quiet in August. But it's not reliable because it's up to the staff. Only semi reliable time is probably after 7 pm to 2 am. I would say in this time frame, 90% of the time it's under an hour. Remember if your a senior looking person you can go to the senior line 3 feet to the right and that's very quick.

What is the senior line. Is it official. I. E, recognized by US border patrol staff?

What is the age requirement for this?

I have gone through ped east many times and only know of the slow line and the sentri bypass.

[Rambo1969]

Well everything blew up price wise in Tijuana maybe 6 months before covid and has continued to increase about 15 to 30% a year, depending on what you are talking about. From VIP card, 6 month visitor pass fees into Mexico, hotel Cascadas prices, decreased discounts with VIP card, lap dance increased couple dollars, hotels on revolution increased. It's a rich mans game now. Seriously if you go every week you better be rich. I used to go with 40 bucks three years ago and get sex and hotel beers and meal.

CB Joe.

All HK girls are now asking for $100 for a covered session, including the skanky street girl Elizabeth and her twin sister. The they severely restrict access to their body, no kiss, no squeeze boobs, no suck tits, no eat or finger pussy ect. They only let you stick you dick in their loose pussies and pump until you pop. Some even try to keep as much distance from you as physically possible. I want sex with a lot stronger skin and sensory contacts with the girls, not pumping their loose pussies from a distance while looking at their ugly, angry faces. Sterile sex with HK girls is probably not better than pumping a rubber doll or jacking to porn for most guys, far worse when HK rubber dolls also show bad attitudes.

Before CoVid there was always a steady stream of HK girls going to the hotel's front and back doors. In the last 3 months I noticed a serious decline of girls taken to the hotel. A few of the hottest ones like Frieda, Lydia, Sasha, Suki ect start work earlier and stay longer, but are still not doing much business.

You'd be surprised how many would take low offers and give close to GFEs.

If you repeat with street girls, they can give sexy, friendly sessions, far more satisfying than remote fucking HK girls and fighting them at the same time. For every session with ornery HK girls, you can do 3 street girls and get 3 hot sessions. If more guys keep up the pressure top push down prices, eventually a lot more HK girls will reduce prices or move to the streets.

[Big Magick]

It is because those latinas are greedy fucking putas. Don't compare Europe to Mexico it isn't even close. That and the HK cartel indoctrinates the new girls on what they should charge. It is all an evil empire! It is all "pay to play".

A HK girl asked me for 130 $ HH lmao I didn't give it to her. Many girls say they are told to quote high prices like that. Europe sounds like a dream, so does Colombia. Price wise at least. I use to hate negotiating because it t does kill the mood but this is getting out of hand. I had a Chicago girl for 60 $ HH. 50-60 $ maybe 80 for the really hot ones is what prices should be.

Hey all, sry to sound like a broken record, but still working on getting my passport renewed.

Considering last time I might have gotten lucky and not had to pay the $20 bribe to cross by simply 'forgetting' my passport. What are the rules around trying to cross with an expired one?

Passport expired back in June. If I present the passport and say SORRY I just noticed my passport is expired. Would they still let me cross? Or is it really just better to pretend like I forgot mine?

You should be fine. They're just going to give you crap about it not being current. I know someone who regularly crosses between Tijuana and San Diego with a very expired passport, and just gets a bit of extra hassle. You'll probably be asked for extra ID, so just make sure your Driver's License is one of those that meets the Federal Requirements. Attempt to eliminate the amount of things they can give you crap about, and don't get pissy with them, and they'll let you through.

I crossed with someone who had recently bought a car, the registration had expired, and they hadn't done the transfer, because they could not get it smogged. CBP gave us a bunch of crap, and sent us to inspection, but after that, they cut us loose.
