AMP Tips and Guidelines

[Member #3918]

12) The "Tip" - The girl will usually ask if there is anything else she can do for you or if you are "OK". This is where you say what you want (HJ, BJ, FS) or make the HJ, BJ, FS "motions". She'll either say how much or just ask you for money. This is where knowing the going rate is handy. It's usually $40-$60 for HJ, $80-$100 for BJ, and $100-$140 for FS. Keep in mind that you can always negotiate and it may vary depending on where in the USA, or world, you are. She may leave for a minute or two or she may just start right there. The key to negotiating is getting a fair value. If you offer $20 for FS and she accepts, it will probably be the worst FS ever. If you overpay, then you ruin the great value of the AMP. So try not to stray too far above or below the going rate. I usually offer at the low end (i.e. $100 for FS) and say that's what I'm used to paying. Tell her what you want and a price you want to pay. She'll most likely be reluctant to give you pricing.

The ones in SC are $180 for FS and thats after you pay the $60 to begin with.

I maintain this is often not about being a neat experience for us but a way for the MP to determine if we are clean and on the level. They can inspect the client and also insure that areas they'll be visiting later are not funky.

I don't know that LE can legally do a Table Shower. It requires them getting naked, even though its never asked of the client. The awkwardness of being partially clothed in the shower would raise a warning flag. If they strip they are negating the legal protection they hide behind. Doesn't mean that they won't try it, though. I could be very wrong, of course!

If that theory has any legitimacy, though, by getting you to the table naked for a shower the MP can also determine your comfort level with the experience to follow and whether you are "on the level".

Just my .02.

7) Shower Etiquette - Some places offer a shower where you go in yourself and wash. If they don't offer, ask if there is one. Some places take you to a table-shower where they put you on a table and wash you. Some places, the girl will wash everything including your genitals. This is a good thing. Some places may ask you to wash your own genitals and I would advise you to do so if you want them to do anything later. It is not generally appropriate to ask for extras at this time. It also helps if you know where the shower is and lead her there instead of her leading you.

This is good advice if it's your first time at a particular place. I've found some places in South Florida will test you when you say you've been there before by asking if you want a table shower, then let you out of the massage room first and they say "Go ahead, you know where the shower room is, you've been here before". And when it comes to extras. They will tell you what is available, but won't give a price, they'll just tell you that you should know the pricing from your previous visit. It took me by surprise the first time but I answered that it had been about 6-8 months since my last visit and I didn't get the TS that time. And when they did the pricing test I told them I was a little tipsy my last time and I forget the prices. Seemed to work each time. Just my. 02.

As far as a refund, the only way that is going to happen is if you threaten to call the better business bureau saying that you came in for a legit massage and got hanky-panky. That's risky. I look at this as a type of gambling--the return on my investment will vary based on variables largely beyond my control.

I hate the little dance when both you and the MT are worried about the othe being LE. I sometimes ask, "do you accept tips for good service?" at the outset if things seem uneasy. Its a perfectly legit question, I'm fully clothed, no touching has occured, etc. It allows them to send a signal to you are to ask you if you are LE. I always answer, "no, are you LE?" In a joking voice, but with enough seriousness to get the point across. I realize that if push came to shove, their answer to my question wouldn't get my arse out of hock with the LE downtown, but it might slow them down. Can anyone else speak on that situation?

I've also had different tip expectations for the same services from the same MT, all within a few days of a recent visit. Is this something anyone else has experienced? I began to think that my larger, initial tip was more than expected. I dismissed that the tip was smaller because they "enjoyed" my session or I had "earned" the right to a smaller tip. Thoughts?

BTW, I have found that the worst time to visit a MP is late, right before closing. My worst service, by far, occured this way.

I normally go in the late morning to early afternoon; has any one found time of day to be a factor in enjoying a spa trip?

I have found (IMHO) that mornings 8:00-11:00 are best during the week unless it's raining at which time it fills up with guys that work outdoors(landscapers,etc.) Weekends around Dinner time 5-5:30 till maybe 7:00 and for places that are open 24 about 4:30am is best.Only been there twice that late but both times it seems the girl's don't won't you to leave and will stay & play as long as you want even if you fall asleep YMMV.Also as others have said that being polite,
clean and not too drunk goes a long-long way as does after going to the same place a few times to bring a small gift for the girls of flowers,candy,lingerie,etc.sounds corney I know but women are women what ever they do........Doc

Ive found that the mid to late 30's girls like us guys in our 50's cause we like them have been around the block a time or two and its not our first rodeo , but treat them with utmost respect and they in turn treat u like a king, this has happened to me recently as one lady even baked me a birthday cake and is just good to sit drink green tea with and havea great conversation and she also will cook lunch for me every now and then, she tickles me saying she wears protection ring , like shes married, anyway good luck and be carefull.

I find the girls in their 30's more attractive than a lot of the younger ones. Also, I find the technique of the girls in their 30's a LOT better than the ones right off the boat.

USTraveller, I wholeheartedly agree with you. My most pleasurable and memorable experiences in MPs is with the older women that have been working a while.

While it is true that the younger ones can be better looking, I find them quite lacking in the service department. The older girls will put more effort into the massage. They know if they get you completely and totally relaxed then when it is time for the extras, you probably won't last as long, therefore they make more of a profit, so to speak, because they won't have as much time invested in you.

On a related topic, I have found that usually if you go to an AMP as soon as it opens for the day, you are usually not as rushed. I would avoid prime time 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. I don't ever remember being in an AMP during that timeframe that I wasn't rushed to get finished. They are usually polite about it, tell you that other customers are waiting and that they will make it up to you next time, but they never do! lol.

The name of the group WAS Sensual Massage 65. Yahoo deleted it about a month ago for "Terms of Service" violations.

Gents,

Up until recently, I was a member of a yahoo group that had reviews and listings for sensual massage places and providers from around the US. I deleted the group by accident and of course, cannot find it doing a search in yahoo groups. You had to post a mini review to gain membership. There was a database section with a "what you liked" section, listings by location, etc... Strike any belss with anyone? If so, I could use the link to get my membership back on line.

Thanks!

Jackson,

Is it possible to start a new thread concerning the history of the AMP?

That Thread already exists , Schwanger

It's called " The History of an Illegal Monopoly " =

I never really thought about time of day when giving advice for a good AMP visit. I'd say as a general guideline, go at the time it's the least busy. That way you don't feel rushed or have to wait in line for a girl.

I like weekdays in the early to late afternoon. If they have late hours, about 1 to 2 hours before closing works good on weeknights too. Not too many guys going on Wednesday around midnight (assuming a 2am closing time). I've gone on weekend afternoons too which worked out.

Once I went on a Friday night fairly late and it was too crowded for my taste. I've also tried to avoid all evening hours since I think that's when they'd be most busy. I haven't actually witnessed this though.

Great advice. Once I get established at an AMP (rates and service), I simply provide the set amount plus previously negotiated extra rates in cash when asked to provide the initial fee. This has worked very well, especially when getting a new girl..I mention the other girls name and say something like "I usually do this with her". It also avoids a bunch of anxiety on my part during the massage as there is some agreement at the onset of the session.

[Third Eye]

It strikes me as ironic and not a little hilarious that Warren/Yotown has such a reputation for AMPs. I'm from the Pittsburgh area which is close to there and had no idea all that was available.

But then if you think about James Traficant (gotta love the guy) with his leisure suits and that, it all makes sense.
