The Art of Negotiation vs RTF?
[QUOTE=Worgent6; 1228905]Was in the area this week and dropped by OS, first time for me in quite a while due to wanting to try other area establishments. Good to see the quality of talent is still the same, long story short I had a 'mint' time with a real friendly spinner type, great personality and will be returning again soon.
Only negative was I given a hard sell on tipping more than the standard rate, from what I hear of other reviews this is becoming more and more then norm, I of course stood fast and refused her attempts as persuasive as they were, the service suffered none for this.
OS keeps the #1 spot in PVD for me now just edging out 1021, but of course żour opinion my differ.[/QUOTE]I have no current intel to speak for myself on going to OS.
I prefer not to negotiate I have done so but it's not my favorite thing.
I find rtf gives me an expected range for what I seek.
I prefer to keep tips at standard to what the Forum trend.
There is nothing wrong tipping up once in awhile if the level of service is superb, provided your level of experience can tell the actual different from such experiences. I would encourage to keep those disclosures of an up tip off forum, to not confuse the general folks w standard trends or we induce our own inflation. Certainly excellent superb / superb experiences can be discretely shared.
