Medellin Reports

[QUOTE=Wolf662;2171074]I was amused by this part: "and a quantity of methaqualone not exceeding two (2) grams".

LOL, I didn't even know Quaalude's were still even a thing! For you youngsters Quaalude's are a sedative and hypnotic medication, popular as a recreational drug and club drug in the late 1960's and 1970's.

The standard one tablet adult dose of Quaalude was 300 MG and a dose of 8000 MG is lethal and a dose as little as 2000 MG could induce a coma if taken with an alcoholic beverage, the drug was discontinued in the United States in 1985, mainly due to its psychological addictiveness and recreational use.[/QUOTE]I was there in the 70's and Quaaludes (synthetic barbiturate) were the best high of the times. Before Quaaludes barbiturates were used but were too powerful and really drugged people out. Quaaludes came a long and was the equivalent of say 3 martinis, a very positive high. I don't recall anyone becoming addicted to them but they became very popular and the government stopped their production. No more Quaaludes. There was a bootlegged version that wasn't bad but they went bye bye as well.

Are there Quaaludes in Medellin? That would be shocking.

I wouldn't listen to the pundits. Give them whatever the hell amount you want!

My first casa of Medellin. Went at around 2 pm and just casually went in. A lot of chicas but mainly 5's-7's. Picked up another skinny petite (Allyson 22 yrs) that seemed quite doable. Payed the fee of 78 K COP for the hour and off to the room. Had a pleasant time. But. No fan and no air conditioner in rooms. It was very hot in there. Had a shower so that was good for me. Once we finished our session, I left her a 30 K COP tip. This casa is more of a, I would go if there is nothing else casa. This was my first casa so I'm pretty sure they saw the money sign above my head. I would like to dabble more in the Medellin casas as I want to try a little bit of everything. LOL.[/QUOTE]

The real point here is ISG is a group of men who share info, and try to help one another.

This whole mongering business in MDE is out of control. Years ago you could go to many places, and find good value. Now social media is jacking up prices. I see guys hooking up, and paying 200 K to 300 K for girls you could of got in Mayorista or the Centro strip clubs for a decent price. A lot of these girls are not stupid. They sit by their PC and pick, and choose who they want to go with. Then they want taxi money when in the past they would go to their work area using the Metro.

Speaking of tips I remember picking a real 9 in New Life. I asked for a BBBJ, and after thinking for a while she said no. OK we did the deed, and after as I was getting dressed she asked me for a tip. I said to her No BBBJ no tip. She looked at me then, and said ok.

[QUOTE=Surfer500;2170141]Good advice to always carry a photocopy of your Passport and a copy of the entry stamp. I got stopped once at a checkpoint at 2 in the morning on Calle 10 in front of EXITO. When asked where was my original Passport, the answer I gave them was that it was locked up in my security box where I was staying and if they wanted to go with me to see the original they were welcome to come with me and than they just let me go.[/QUOTE]Agreed. I keep my passport in the safe at the hotel or apartment (since it is the one thing I don't want to lose) along with a credit card and enough cash to get to the airport. I have a photocopy of my passport on me as well as pictures of my passport on my phone.

[QUOTE=Bill;2171744]The price of casas and street girls is inching up because of gringo mongering style and the locals are taking notice.[/QUOTE]Somehow I doubt some gringo overpaying a street girl is going to drive up the prices for the locals, the Vera Cruz and Raudal girls don't see enough tourists to do that and there are too many girls still offering it for 30 k in the Vera Cruz block. Mayorista I don't know about, maybe they get more gringos but not the 2 times I was there. I've been through Vera Cruz and Raudal over 50 times in the last year and never see any tourists (and I don't blame them, it is a risky area for newbies) and have always been quoted 30 k by the VeraCruz and 50+- by the Raudal chicks.

[QUOTE=Judd;2171799]I wouldn't listen to the pundits. Give them whatever the hell amount you want![/QUOTE]Great advice Judd, Not!

No reason to be a moron, Lol

[QUOTE=Judd;2171799]I wouldn't listen to the pundits. Give them whatever the hell amount you want![/QUOTE]Well, now we have more confirmation why prices are getting out of hand. And we can blame my fellow Americans for that. Europeans don't get out of hand with their money. And it shows in practice / Let's look across the Caribbean for an interesting scenario.

Things were cheap in Boca Chica when I was there last year, while people on the Sosua and Santo Domingo forums were complaining about prices getting out of hand in Sosua. Why is that? Well, Boca Chica is dominated by European tourists, who are cheapskates in comparison to Americans. Contrary to what the media would like you to believe, Americans can be very well liked abroad because they tip and Europeans don't (I won't even bring up Chinese tourists into the conversation). Part of it is our generosity and our tendency to tip. But, Europeans don't believe in tipping and they don't worry about looking cheap even if they are well off. Who would they be trying to impress? Someone they would never see again? Americans sometimes don't seem to get that.

Same situation seems to apply on Bali. As I recently posted on that forum, Kuta is a shithole populated by hustlers preying on the dominate Australian tourist element, who also seem to have a problem with loose wallets. Some tossers on these forums, typically Americans, like to take jabs at the Australians, without realizing there isn't that much difference between us and them (except Americans are fatter). But, I digress. After trying to get laid in Kuta I only came across ripoffs like 1. 5 Mil Rupiahs for a handjob in a vacant office space. After two nights of that bullshit, I made it over to Sanur, a quieter beach resort town known to favored by Europeans. Now, the X-houses of Sanur cater to the locals but some of the girls will service the "bule" tourists. I do know there is a different level of pricing exists for the locals and the bule, and you have to haggle to get a fair price. But, in the end I got a pretty, slim, young Asian girl give me excellent service (better than anything I got in Medellin) for 300 k. Europeans who spend their holiday there in Sanur, aren't throwing money around recklessly and as a result not one girl asked for a tip. Though I did give a very modest tip to two of them for service above and beyond, better than any I had in Thailand or Colombia, and certainly better than the DR. I also wanted to see them again. They were both surprised and delighted at the gratuity, you'd think it was their birthday.

What a difference 5 miles can make, but then again the you have a different set of "bule" in Sanur and Kuta. And as a result the markup for the foreigner and the service level is completely different. Is Medellin at that point, now? How long til the scammers and the real criminals take total advantage of this, and ruin it for everyone? Americans need to tighten up their wallets!

[/QUOTE]True, but it could create a dual pricing structure where it is more expensive for foreigners than locals.

[/QUOTE]Guys sit by their PC s and pick and choose who they want to go with. And pay some chicks less and other chicks more.

Some girls charge certain guys more and other guys less. No where is this more apparent then at the Mansion these days.

[QUOTE=MedellinGringo;2172250]Some girls charge certain guys more and other guys less.[/QUOTE]It has never been what a girl charges, but what a guy negotiates.

People have some nerve going into foreign countries and acting the way they do.

Mongering is a luxury not a need whereas on the other end of it the girl is probably in desperate need.

Do you realize we are the vulnerable ones in another country.

Colombia is not like DR or other poor countries that welcome people like us. As soon as we get off the airplane they know we came to fuck their women and they don't welcome that.

My point is spending a little extra can only help but being too frugal and cheap can cause problems at the wrong place.

Come on guys,

Things were cheap in Boca Chica when I was there last year, while people on the Sosua and Santo Domingo forums were complaining about prices getting out of hand in Sosua. Why is that? Well, Boca Chica is dominated by European tourists, who are cheapskates in comparison to Americans. Contrary to what the media would like you to believe, Americans can be very well liked abroad because they tip and Europeans don't (I won't even bring up Chinese tourists into the conversation).

Someone they would never see again? Americans sometimes don't seem to get that.

Same situation seems to apply on Bali.[/QUOTE]Come on guys. How did we get here? Going abroad to begin penny pinching? How about giving out some usual advice to the board about how to make you money go further. Take wolf for example, my first time in Medellin, I learned a lot from Wolf. I watched how he moved, how he interacted with people and how people responded. I notice that whenever we went out, he kept a wad of 2 mil pesos. When we were in the clubs he kept a wad of 2 mil pesos, everywhere we went, he kept a wad of 2 mil pesos. I noticed how grateful the streetwalkers, bums, door attendants were when he passed out these 2 mil pesos. Went back and did my math, yep, he was giving out about $0. 70 cents. Now we are on the board talking about how Americans drive up the price of everything.

The average Colombian monthly salary in Medellin is $350 US and they are living quite well off of that. No need in being a scrooge because you can. $300 k-$500 K will get nearly anything done in Medellin from what I have seen. If a $100 US a day to bang 2 to 3 dime pieces is too much, honestly you shouldn't be mongering. Each man has his own method of spending money. From my travels to Europe, the Brits and others are not as well liked as you make them to be, plus they have a crappy "You need Us" attitude. I wouldn't be following a European way of life in least bit, but to each his or her own. Safety first, use this board and find people with reliable contacts. In my history, you get what you pay for, PolloNegro is out!

[QUOTE=MrEnternational;2172149]True, but it could create a dual pricing structure where it is more expensive for foreigners than locals.[/QUOTE]I'm in El Centro frequently and what I have experienced is that there are some girls that will ask for double what a local would pay. Not so much a dual pricing structure all the girls would adopt but what some girls will try to get out of the foreigners. When I'm given a price of 50 K I just kind of laugh and politely tell the girls it's way to much as I have been quoted as low as 15 K. Additionally when the high quoting Chicas find out that I know they are asking for more than double and insist on going to the room I say no thanks as a session with them would probably not be any good. My guess is that probably 99% or more of these street girls customers are locals hence a dual pricing structure such as in other places of the world I believe will not develop there except for the few Chicas smart enough to solicit for more money. I also observed a Chica the other day on the backside of the church who was an overweight fugly barking out the words translated from Spanish to English "Love 15 thousand" this was the first time I had heard a Chica shouting out a price to get fucked.

Unless in the tourist area, NEVER EVER feel obliged to TIP. Locals don't, it is not expected. Only do so if you think there is a chance you will repeat the service and you want to cement some good will.

[QUOTE=MrEnternational;2172149]True, but it could create a dual pricing structure where it is more expensive for foreigners than locals.[/QUOTE]That is the case in most places. The girls will almost always quote a foreigner a higher offer than a local. Especially in places where the locals are known to be cheap (like Buenos Aires) and the foreigners are getting great exchange rates (so a few extra bucks doesn't make much of a difference to them).

Let's face it, if you've got the money to fly to a far off location and stay in a nice hotel, and you see a beautiful woman you want to be with, you aren't as inclined to negotiate her down to rock bottom, when the little head starts to do the thinking.
