Ads on LL without prices

[Lefty]

I just dont get this. Why so many ads do not include rates. At least rates for basic 45/60 sessions.

For me, if no rate is posted I just skip it. Not worth the effort to make contact and inquire.

What do you guys think?

Of course the SP can charge whatever they want. It's an open market. But dont they waste a lot of their own time dealing with the basic price question.

What's wrong with asking, politely in your first contact, something like "... can you please tell me your rates for service and your restrictions ...?" I have never had a problem with that, and never had an issue with whatever comes back. It's a business arrangement and if either party don't like the terms, just move on.

It’s a filtering mechanism - if you have to ask, you can’t afford it - it is also a red flag for the provider - here is someone who is tight with his money. Me, I can’t afford it, so I also don’t bother with any ads that don’t give any indication of rates.

me too, no rates ,no visit

So you just show up without knowing the cost?
And you think asking someone how much? is a red flag?
Wow!

I've also seen many reviews that avoid mentioning rates, even when asked. Never understand why it has to be kept secret.

I love those one sentence reviews “I saw ********, she’s nice go see her” no links or phone numbers or basically no information whatsoever.

My rates are on my web site which is linked from my ad. The character count for LL ads is incredibly low so it’s difficult to fit rates in there 🤷🏼‍♀️

because half the time they won't respond unless you mention a time..... and if you do that just to get a response for rates you're already on the backfoot lol. see the same girls who post no price also say "dont waste time just come over, txt with booking time etc, time wasters will be blocked..." THEN POST YOUR RATES LOL

I don’t mind the inquiry to find out rates. The reply tells a great deal. If you get a standard reply you will probably get standard service. If the lady responds individually then you know that you will likely get a more tailored experience.
Even better if the ad requested an email only inquiry first. The A for Attitude part of our rating system here will almost always tell you everything you need to know with just a paragraph.
Pleasant reply with the answers to your questions? No dodging “certain“ areas of your inquiry? Genuinely seems interested in booking with you? Cool, book her.
Shitty attitude? Frustrated with your inquiry? Pushy? No reply? File and forget.
Ive taken to being very upfront. This is a two way street and I’m the customer. Bullshit and games don’t fly anymore for me. I tell them from them get go, if those aren’t your real photos I’m walking. I will ask for a real photo with a current time stamp on it, that cuts the crap right there. Now, that’s if they fail the sniff test (tineye). If I get a current real photo, game on. If not, NEXT.
I look at this the same way as any other purchase I’m going to make. Don’t care what everyone else can afford. Sometimes I don’t even care what I can afford. I’m spending a good chunk of coin. I don’t have to justify my curiosity. My stiff dick has got me into some less than happy situations that cost my ego and my wallet. Not no more, if I can help it.
Yes, there are some unscrupulous providers out there but there are what I would say are the better side of the equal opposite. Nice ladies that provide a great service with a pleasant/ sexy attitude. Basically, if like anything else, trust your gut, if it don’t feel right don’t do it.

If no rates are posted, a call/text has to be put in to determine whether her rates are within your budget. No value is gained from not posting rates. The SP will not know if you are a cheap bastard or an unlimited budget money guru if she receives a polite text. Just post the rates and make it easy to contact or move on if its not affordable.

Consider it like this:
Every ad gets a number of chances to either convince the potential clients they are legit, or convince them they are sketchy / untrustworthy.

The context matters; the rep of the advertiser matters (if they have a rep at all). It is maybe not a total deal-breaker by itself, but combined with any other warning signs, it can be the thing that puts an ad into the "don't bother" bin.

Seeing an escort is a YMMV kind of thing.
1. Deciding to see an escort; you start checking off your list (body shape, size, boobs and ass, hair colour, etc)(pics of full body shots-standing from front and back can give aproximation of body type and size);
2. Can you afford to see the escort (ahh.. the money), at the base rate of money/hr;
3. Any extras that might cost you more (ahh... money again) if its your fetish (bbbj, anal, strapon, toys etc);
4. Provider's restrictions.

So an ad for me should provide some pics, base rate; extras prices, and an way to contact the provider.

Also pls note any reference by the Provider to "see her website" for instructions or restrictions.

Also pooners have a bad habit of not "reading full ad" or "website instructions". I don't know how many times I have seen providers comment (on Twit ter) about how "stupid" potential client fuck up, just by not reading or following their printed rules...

The one item I do have to say I really don't understand is why domination services are much more expensive then normal escort services. The way I see it is the guy penetrates the normal escort, which I would see as a more personal concern then having a dom spank, tie you down or fuck you (and hence the more money is involved). I thought maybe its the cost of the equipment, but if they been at it for 2 years or more, most of the equipment is paid for. Then maybe it was cleaning equipment after, but a good(smart) dom always makes the slave clean up.... yup I still think dom pricing is backwards... doesn't make sense to my male head......And yes my ass always has to pay.....in more ways then one......

I skip over 95% of ads without rates.
A lady really has to really grab my attention to get me to search for her rates.

Not enough room for "$XXX/HR" ?

Not enough room for "$XXX/HR" ?

this is what my ad says:

"No calls please, unless you're disabled in a way that renders you unable to fill in my booking form.

Go to my web site experiencecharlee.com for more info!

If you’re looking for an authentic experience, you’ve found it. As a well-reviewed and established provider, I have the privilege to only select suiters I’m genuinely intrigued by. That means I’m excited for each and every appointment!

I’m outspoken, silly, sweet, sensual, kind, and honest. I don’t discriminate based on ethnic or cultural background, weight, gender, age (18+ only), or physical or mental ability. I’m over 3 years sober and I expect you abstain from recreational dr*g or alcoh*l use before and during our session.

The majority of my bookings are from repeat customers, but I am always looking to add quality clientele to my list of lovers. Please reach out by filling in my booking form on my web site experiencecharlee.com

Cheerfully goofy and sexually confident, you can’t go wrong when you Experience Charlee."

If you read that and you're not interested enough in me to go to my web site (which, as you'll note, is linked twice and people STILL don't go there), I am not interested enough in you to have you over to my house for shenanigans.

I feel that the information in my ad is more important to get across than my rates. If my rates fit as well as what I’ve written, I would add them. But, I literally have 2 characters left 🤷🏼‍♀️ So no, they don’t fit.

Mine has 0 characters left. I feel you, sis. If I could fit it all in there I would - it'd certainly save me the hassle of texting it to each potential client!

Always entertaining to hear guys telling women how to run their business.
Amazingly many very successful women do not post rates and do well.
