Hong Kong Club Reports

[Sol12]

The downside of higher pricing at HK is that it precipitates a death spiral: the prices tend to reduce the number of customers. Some regulars stop coming so much, the guys who come once a month now come 3 times as much, and when they come, they don't buy so many drinks. The top tier ladies are unaffected, but the other ladies struggle, and do they fade away. And so their customers.

Eventually, it becomes a ghost town, with a handful of ladies and customers.

I think most upset on the rising price from this board are living to much in the past. Especially considering what has happened with the worlds economy due to poor leadership and most economies are still adjusting but it could be another year or so before prices began to stabilize. On top of that HK has to deal with the higher than average price to live in Tijuana compared to other parts of Mexico so the incentive to get quality girls to work there is higher not to mention the new competition of girls just doing things online.

In regards to regulars stop coming so much I think it's very rare that guys consistently visit the Zona more than 5 years, they get bored like a kid gets bored with a new toy. I agree with your point on guys maybe cutting back on trips but I don't think they buy less drinks, for myself and others that have posted here when the trips get cut back it allows us to spend more freely when we come because we aren't concerned about maybe saving money that can be used on the next trip that's only a month away. If my next possible visit is in six months I'm not worried about buying an extra drink here or there.

Unfortunately the Zona is not kind to the old, new talent is consistently arriving which is what also continues to bring new customers, any successful business has to develop new ways to attract new customers so they can continue to grow. Same way countries have to have a certain number of babies born each year or they will dissolve as the older generations die off.

Last year HK launched an online site to meet girls in the club and watch them in videos. I'm not sure how much business they get off it but it's a good and new way to reach out to young clients that will feel more comfortable coming to HK and already have a girl that they know instead of being nervous to talk to a stranger.

The problem is CC wants to match pricing with that of HK. This is there issue.

I disagree with CC wanting to match pricing with HK. For example my drink in HK is $10, in TB which is the same company it's $7, the cheapest place is CC that is $6. So if CC wanted to charge more to be like HK they could but they know that the best way to compete with HK or even TB is to have a lower price.

Unfortunately this only works with customer drinks, if HK charges $11 for a girls drink and they are paying the girls more in that cost no quality girl is going to work in CC unless they match that. So CC is forced to raise ficha prices as well. I like to read about some f the other border bars like LOS Algodones and it's a much smaller town with basically two bars and the prices from the posters is basically the same as Tijuana. All the girls know what they can make at different places so the market gets adjusted.

Yea I have not been able to figure that one out. When we get in the car she has to give the driver a 4 digit code. He then enters the code in his phone and it seems to unlock the ride and we are ready to go. If he puts the code in wrong we aint going anywhere. The strange thing is if she orders an uber / didi for me, I get worried and ask her am I going to need a code? And the answer is no. I just get in and go.

Yeah. Definitely doesn't make since.

Nothing compares to HK, forget Mexico, even around the world in my view.

Have you been to Jakarta Indonesia? This is where it's at 'right now' in 2024. HK is high energy and I like that but it is psychotically high prices with super high mileage ladies who no longer get me excited. Asia is great but Angeles City and Pattaya are past their prime. Jakarta is in full swing! But that's just me...

Can you imagine going into a bar or restaurant in America and 80% of the waiters don't bring correct change, steal your change from the cover charge, steal your change from drinks, Bring the most expensive drink they have without asking, constantly ask you for tips at every corner and then after everyone says " they are just trying to run a business " not only that, they call you a racist for pointing it out. LOL.

To be fair, you criticized HK waiters. Therefore you should be lucky as to not be banned by the HK police.

A couple ballers will celebrate a special occasion in HK Sunday afternoon, starting 2 PM until midnight.

Come by and say Hi. Will buy you a drink.

So long as there are no alternatives, a bit cheaper but with women with acceptable looks, like Adelita used to be, HK prices could skyrocket and it still will be extremely popular specially in the weekends.

There is just no other alternative currently. Even BT is going down the drain which used to be an option before the pandemic. Nothing compares to HK, forget Mexico, even around the world in my view.

Follows is a quick and crude analysis of the cost of sex compared to basic meals using most likely costs:

In Tijuana Mexico, a basic meal costs 75 pesos. Lots of street girls will do half hour sessions for 500 pesos, HK bar girls, 2400 pesos, so 6 meals for street pussies and 45 meals for clubs'.

Mexican club pussies are way inflated to ridiculous levels. You don't want to have to skip 45 meals in 30 days just to poke a club girl. How the hell can average locals skips 45 meals just to poke a HK pussy? HK keeps raising prices for pussies, drinks, hotels, tips ect. I get very offended when HK girls demand $30 fake wine fichas. That's the equivalent wage of 3 work days for unskilled people like those HK putas, $6 per minute or $360 per hour. Even Mexican brain surgeons don't make that extremely high wages. I know a few Mexican MDs with their own successful practices, but even they cannot afford these ridiculous HK girls. Every visit they would sample 1 or 2 HK girls and do mostly street girls.

We should be smart to minimize spending in HK and not help fake, rotten HK putas to keep jacking prices on their stinking pussies. Fortunately I know a few nice, clean, hot and sweet HK girls who would do me for 1,000- 1,200 pesos. I always plead poverty to them and it works, but the $40 Cascada ST rooms with early knocking just pisses me off. I get disgusted thinking of too many stinky HK pussies blew up in my face.

Stick with street pussies. There are many spinners on the streets, most are very nice, sweet, looking good, smelling good, feeling good. A few would do full BBBJ and BBFS if you get to know them. Street girls are humble and honest, work hard to raise bastard children and help their families. I have never gotten a stinky pussy on the street of Tijuana.

Try in every way not to destroy the markets for locals.

I think these clubs should take notes on the glitzy nature of HK, and make some effort to do the same.

I'm guessing it would be very difficult to build multiple levels. If you're a single level club, that's out of the question, but just try to get closer to what they do.

I mean you have to have the financial resources for that kind of effort though. I'm no Zona Norte historian and certainly wasn't around back then but my understanding is HK started out as a small club just like these other clubs before gradually expanding over the years as they accumulated "resources". Assuming it's true that HK is cartel-backed, it's maybe not too difficult to understand how HK was able to expand and rise in prominence over the years. A lot of these smaller clubs maybe don't have the benefit of those same resources.

Totally agree! And don't let anyone tell you that they are "just trying to run a business at HK. " Time to start supporting the other bars Turn HK into Chicago where it went from the best bar in the Coahuila to walking in and seeing only one or two women. That will surely result in a changed business model.

I think many on this board have advocated to visit the smaller bars but most put up with HK because it has the largest selection of attractive ladies.

The funny thing about your idea to have what happened to CC happen to HK is that HK used a better business model than CC and AB thus bringing more ladies that in turn brought more guys. CC has come back more but they still don't have the ability to compete with HK on a large scale so most girls stay at HK. HK made everything better in the Zona, remember before guys wouldn't even stay overnight. Most guys would go party all night and have a cheap room at one of the motels on the US side. Now HK has sold guys on coming to stay for multiple nights and between the hotel, Azul and the club guys could stay in that one place and never have the need to do anything away from them.

You may not like HK for personal reasons but they are very good at business.

I have never heard about having to read some code to the driver.

Yea I have not been able to figure that one out. When we get in the car she has to give the driver a 4 digit code. He then enters the code in his phone and it seems to unlock the ride and we are ready to go. If he puts the code in wrong we aint going anywhere.

One thing that would help solidify Chicago Club as a true alternative to HK would for them to bring back the ability to book a hotel room online.

Seems I might have seen they have suites rooms now. How much is a suite hotel room? Regular hotel room?

The Chicago Club group also owns 2 other hotels in Zona Norte. Above la Gloria & la Carreta.

With Adelita still being closed, Chicago Club talents should be good.

Chicago club talent is still quite bad. You can sit there for hours and not see a super hot girl the whole time. When Adelitas was close to being closed, the talent at Adelitas was already very bad (all the hot girls had long since left already) so adelits closure didn't really do much for Chicago. Chicago club also had some good talent but almost all of them left for HK because they weren't making any money at CC.

CC has the right prices, it just needs hotter women.
