Good Ideas. Now If We Can Only Do Them
[QUOTE=Junior23;6979498]First, I like both of your ideas. Effective and simple. Maybe someone can get a thread going of who they've seen, price they paid, services offered, and and we can build off that.
Here's a handful more that require some coordination. A group of probably 10 could make this effective.
1. Start a "provider interest" thread. Get PM's of other folks who are interested. Enough line up, OP messages provider, says "hey what kind of group discount can you run, there's ten of us interested at 'X' price?
2. This one's more to weed out the bad seeds. Anyone who posts about an "I got robbed" post, flood that provider with messages. Set up appt's, flake on them, whatever it takes. Get the bad actors out of town. Course, this relies on us being stand up, and not just posting that shit willy nilly. Know that (may have?) happened a few years back with one provider who did call her DB, but ol' boy was tryin for some backdoor play in the act or something? I dunno, just throwing ideas out there.
Not sure if this is against rules or anything, just figure we could actually do something with the "strength in #'s" thing I keep reading about.[/QUOTE]All ideas help, even ones that do not work.
A thread of posts about rates paid is cool, although I hope all posted reviews going forward include a comment of the coins paid. I think that should be a keep point of every review. But, that is just an idea. If mongers universally do it and if it works, that remains to be seen.
Vigilante approach has many issues, and I personally would not like to fill a provider with appointments and then flake, even if she is crap. But that is just me personally. My goal is to lower the insane rates charged by providers, not actively weed out the bad ones.

Mongers Add A Line In Reviwes Saying You Paid How Much $
[QUOTE=Rich980;6979659]This is how it's accomplished. Never ask, tell. "I will give you $200 for the hour. " In my case I typically include "minus half the transportation cost" because I only host. There are too many out there making demands. Demands for extravagant donations, demands for pictures, demands for condom use, demands for party favors and demands for respect. We, as their clients / customers, need not give in to any of these demands. We pay, they do. Simple as that. If they don't want to do, they can be as dope sick as they need to be until the demands stop..[/QUOTE]I know many guys pay a girl's MSRP, but I always first tell her an amount less than her posted price or if none is posted, then I less than the typical rate.
Like you, I do not ask how much $ she wants – I start my text telling her I want such and such for $$. Notice, I am friendly, not confronting her or saying offer, I simply say I want to meet for such and such for $$.
Sometimes she tells me no, other times she says she needs $xx minimum, but most of the time she says ok and we have fun (at the $ I gave her).
I agree with you, she needs her candy to keep from getting sick, so she can say yes and get some $ from me to buy her candy or she can suffer dope sickness – it is her choice and she most often agrees to my $ offer!
It would help if everyone posted in their reviews a line saying how much $ they paid – that gives us all info of what she will take for a particular service. A monger can then offer her that amount or less, it is up to the monger. So, I hope mongers stat adding how much $ they paid in all their reviews.
