[QUOTE=A158;1927695]Frankly I do not get iwhy there are complaints about the $1500-$2000 range? Mind you, compared to mongering at home, this is cheap, but I should not compare because things at home are different and services as such are not legal.[/QUOTE]I hope you meant Hong Kong dollar rather than US dollar. If so, please use the internationally understandable HKD and USD abbreviations rather than "$".
Your fellow members here will thank you for it.
[QUOTE=Manfield04;1927786]If you are getting the rate as 0.1381, it means 1 Hong Kong dollar is equivalent to 0.1381 dollar in your country and not that one dollar of your country is equivalent to 0.1381 Hong Kong dollar. Got it, Sir?[/QUOTE]Hi,
No it's 0.1381 Hong Kong Dollar to 1 United States dollar. That is the conversion rate the money exchange and banks use in the United States. It does change every day but not by much. I would definitely be better of bringing USD to Hong Kong and change it in Hong Kong. I'm going to try to check out Wan Chai scene Sunday night if my fight into HKG is early or on time. I'm normally stay in Kowloon.

Let's make it the going rate!

[QUOTE=WorldHop;1926421]Thanks Christian G and AussieDoug. I most likely going to change usd to hkd here in the states. The best rate I can get is 0.135 hkd to usd. They don't use the 1 usd to 7.75 hkd here.[/QUOTE]QED. As per Tiger's comments, visitors drive up local prices. You can't help people who don't want to be helped. They are the ones who keep Tho Cook and Am ex is business.
FWIW, I think many locals hunt in Wanchai. You are 95% sure the girl you meet is available for P4 P and at much lower rates than H Clin t on. Though, think it only fair to always pay, even over protests.
Well, that's what I had told you but you denied it. 0.1381 US $ = 1 HKD. In other words, US $ 1 = HKD 7.24.

Went to Kama Spa on Wyndom (Spelling? I had read some great reports, but think my expectations were too high. Plus points, no haggling, straight flat price of 700 for 60 minutes and 900 for 90 minutes, and they did not cut time short, and no tip is expected or asked for. Another plus, you will get an amazing massage! I had a girl named Demi, and she was cute and fit, probably 30-35, but always hard to judge. She really dug in to my muscles. There was a little teasing, not much, but I knew that I was going to get more, so was really just focusing on a good massage. My impressions from others on the forum that this was a definite CFS place, but on the flip she informed me that I should try the VIP room next time where we can get totally naked. No comment about what else might happen in the VIP room, but what was clear in my current room was that he was only on the cards. It was nice as far as an he goes. She did some ridiculous fake moaning that I could have done without, but there was breast play. And, I guess if you went in thinking you were going to get a great massage and a he and were willing to pay HK 700 for that, well, it is high but it is a nice place without any dodgyness. I guess I was just hoping for more and I get good rub and tugs for less elsewhere. Hope this is helpful to others considering the place. Happy to give more details if needed. Plan to be back soon, and hoping for a more complete experience with nice sensual shower, massage and CFS.

[QUOTE=Applesauce;1927724]I used to go to Fanda in Central. I only say used to because last year I bought enough knockoff cialis to last a year. I do need a refill so I'll post about it next month. Anyways, they also have real cialis and viagra, but the knockoffs are half the price so I got Hippigra. No questions asked except the salesguy had recommended another brand as well but I ended up with Hippigra since I didn't know the difference between knockoffs.[/QUOTE]Can you tell me where is this Fanda, I have been looking for some generic Cialis for a long time. Thanks.

The small Chinese pharmacy next to Wanchai MTR Station exit see also sells Viagra and co. Without any problem.
Just ask one of the guys inside.
So you are armed before heading to the bars and clubs in Wanchai.

After viewing the website, I expected a little more upscale facility. I also didn't completely understand the difference in the pricing. I thought it was for a nicer room, didn't realize it may have been a service upgrade. Turns out I had a gal that had only been there 2 days and I was her second customer. It didn't go well. She pressed pretty hard for the room upgrade and didn't begin to listen about the style of massage I wanted. I almost walked out early.
After leaving I sent the manager / owner a message and told her of my concerns and she apologized profusely. She asked me to give them another try and promised a better outcome. It is expensive, but if it a good experience the extra money might be worth it.
I am still trying to find a little bit of an upscale location with extras. I'm getting a little tired of tiny little rooms and the smell of [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord109][CodeWord109][/url] in the corridors. I expect to pay more, which is fine if the product is worth it.

From [URL]xe.com[/URL]:
1. 00 USD = 7. 75797 HKD.
1 HKD = 0. 128900 USD.
Maybe the rates you quoted are after exchange fees.
