Let's see if am comprehending you right, in this post you say that you have never paid in US Dollars anywhere:

I have never paid in dollars anywhere!

However in your previous post from Yesterday you stated that you recommend "going back to the USD" in other words, paying in dollars.

I recommend going back to USD, until the exchange rate goes back up.

So you are recommending to people who read ISG that they should do something that you claim that you yourself have never done?

How is this not giving bad advice? You should atleast have experience with something before you recommend others to do it. Paying for anything in Colombia with USD is not going to save anyone any money and it is not cheaper than using COP.

First of all I've been going to Colombia longer than you have been alive, so I believe you have a lot of posts with limited knowledge. I have never paid in dollars anywhere! Or 400 600 cop. I have a list of favorites, non pros who until this year never even mentioned the high prices YOU Medellin squarters brought to Bogota. I only mentioned the cost of changing dollars to cop and the exchange rate they rip you off for. You really need to brush up on you reading comprehension, I said I have always paid in local currencies for the last 30 years. So if the knuckle heads who pay these girls 400 k and you Medellin guys continue doing it then AND ONLY THEN is it better to pay 100 USD than go through the exchange bull shit and pay 100 USD which after all the exchange bullshit shakes out to be around 3500 to a dollar for the guys like you who are paying hard core prepagos 400 and 500 in Medellin and bringing that shit here to Bogota. Pay attention now, stay with me on this. I SAID THEY PAY THESES GIRLS 400/500 cop not me, never have and never will. And I don't fuck hard core pros either like you and some others feed on. Now go get your shine box.

No need to be defensive. You pay too much and you know it. I remind you that the min legal wage in CO is 1 160 000 cop. That means that at the rate you pay, 2 sessions covers 1 month of basic salary. In no other country I visited, the ratio rato out of basic salary is so unfavorable. Bottom line, the usual 100 k cop 250 k cop remain largely well paid. Ideally price being below 100 k. There is a reason why locals pays low prices. You, you just contribute to messing up the market for local people and mindful foreigners. Rest assured that you are not the only culprit, others gringos have done that in MDE and Cartagena and then complaint endlessly on this same board. After the market is ruined, they move to another country. Thanks very much.

What noone seems to be mentioning here is you can still negotiate the price you want to pay in pesos then proceed to pay in the equivalent dollars. Don't bring only 100 dollar bills. Bring a bunch of 50 dollar bills and some 20's. Let the girls go exchange it. If a Casa girl quotes 120 k plus 80 k adicional for BBBJ. Give her a 50 dollar bill. Not rocket science.

If a centro girl quotes 80 k give her a 20 dollar bill. Lose way less money that way.

Alot of bad advice being given here on ISG. First of all if you are paying 500 k or 600 k then you are part of the problem.

These girls are only getting away with this shit because there are guys like you who are paying it. If you go back in time just a few years ago before the pandemic and before all the YouTube videos and subsequent passport bros and Makin' it rain motherfuxkers started showing up, (see recent video posted in Cartagena thread) none of these women were charging more than 200 k.

You coming down here paying 500 k or 600 k or even a "crisp $100 usd note" you are just enabling these women to rip you off. If we all got on the same page and all agreed to only pay 150 mil, then they would have to accept that price or they would starve. And I guarantee you that the local rolos are not paying these outrageous prices. $150 mil Is a generous amount for outcall and in the barrios with the locals that is more in line with the real prices, not your inflated gringo prices you quote that are fucking up the market.

But with the exception of SF I think its best to use USD. This year I only had 5 trips to Colombia, all to Bog. The last 2 trips were is Sept. And Dec. Due to the many rookie guys going to Bogota this year I have seen a marked increase the amount the girls are asking of 500,600 cop and higher and I've seen an increase of them mentioning time limits too, something I never ran into before in Bog.

So by the time you change USD at the current exchange rate of 3,900 and you add in the vig of some 2000 per dollar your accepting 3700. And less if you add in the ATM charge so do the math how much your paying in cop 400,000 500,000 and even 600,000 and up, a crisp $100 bill is cheaper than pesos and some of these girls are not rocket scientist so, a US bill impressed them more that pesos. As stated above this is not recommended for SF and other casas but for chippers and non pros I recommend going back to USD, until the exchange rate goes back up.

Thanks for all the tips. I've been a few places around the globe that prefer US dollars so I wanted to check.

They may prefer the US dollar where there are restrictions on currency exchange and they get more with US dollars than the official exchange rate indicates. But that is not the case in Colombia. So no, there is no advantage to taking foreign currency and having to get it exchanged versus just getting paid in your own currency. Colombia's currency trades freely on the world market so anyone taking dollars is either trying to beat you on the exchange rate and take advantage of your ignorance, or perhaps just trying to make it easier for you to pay them to get the money if you don't have pesos. But you're not likely to get any deals.

So there is a guy who came down here on the 20th and has been banging girls from Escort sites every night-- Celestina I think he has been using-- he had a threesome last night.

He has been here before and made some arrangements before his arrival.

I walked around Santa Fe yesterday and it was not bad-- I myself have been with some of my steady girls.

[JohnnyWishBone]

Absolutely this. I only ever charge anything in USD in Colombia if I'm trying to make myself seem important / highball them.

Only pay in pesos. Don't flash dollars around because the price is getting driven up; Cartagena has been ruined because of this. And punters need to remember that girls will always high-ball you at the start of negotiations.

Colombian Pesos. Colombia is far enough from the USA and doesn't have the USA presence like a Tijuana or Costa Rica so everything is in local Pesos. If you see someone trying to quote you in US dollars in Colombia you're probably about to get ripped off paying a super high gringo rates.

In your varied experiences, do Colombian pesos or US dollars work better when seeking out entertainment and ladies?

Use your foreign ATM at the airport in Bogota and you can withdraw up to 2 million pesos (just under $500 at today's exchange rate).

The benefits of this are 1) the banks give you the best exchange rate and 2) you don't have to do conversions in your head while trying to work out the dollar price vs. Pesos, when the girl tells you pesos and you're trying to get the right dollars.

Bottom line. Pesos - you'll save more in every aspect.
