[QUOTE=Kamsamida;5396412]With 85 reviews on TER and average scores of close to 9 for looks and more than 8 for service, sounds like bank to me. The only question I'd have before forking out 5 benjis is how much has she changed in the last 3 years that she was off the grid.[/QUOTE]She was only away for a year and a half, which was before TER became available for the States again. I was her last appointment of 2019, around mid / late December.
"Sexy Shannon and several other legends deserve $400 to $500 per hour. I suspect that if the providers who are old, out of shape or give bad service try to get $400 to $500 they will lose their customer base".
[QUOTE=AlexisDavis;5396377]What makes her so much better than everyone else? Any detailed reviews on her? Looks and service are top notch?[/QUOTE]She looks like a Baywatch babe.
[QUOTE=FiatVoluptas;5395930]What a terrible precedent being set with this. Indy girls charging 500, OK, that's not uncommon. But girls with mainstream bookers doing so? It's only a matter of time before other girls figure if Shannon can charge 500, they can, too.[/QUOTE]It's not because Shannon can command $500/ hr that the whole market will bear that price point.
With SAG only posting a single picture, Shannon seems to be marketing to her loyal customers. I expected her to get booked up quickly upon her return but who knows how many weeks that will last. When Rebecca upped her fee to $350/ hr she told me she attracted fewer customers per day but was ok with the trade off. Personally I stopped seeing her despite our history because she just wasn't worth that price to me anymore. I would have kept seeing Chloe for $350 though and will definitely revisit Shannon at $500/ hr at least once and take it from there.
[QUOTE=AlexisDavis;5396377]What makes her so much better than everyone else? Any detailed reviews on her? Looks and service are top notch?[/QUOTE]Shannon is not better at all, I had seen her years ago and her service sucks she has GPS, but her looks are a solid 8 but in my honest opinion she is worth 250 an hour tops.
[QUOTE=Irresponsible;5395315]Holy crap, Shannon is going to be back. Contacted booker, said it'll be $5 xx.
Killed my boner a bit.
[URL]https://www.sweetasiangem.com/sexyshannon[/URL][/QUOTE]Her profile has been taken down from the main page but the direct link still works. Either she reconsidered her come back date or there's some internal rumblings in the kgirl world. You're rocking the boat big time if you introduce such a large donation increase. While we may bicker, criticize, or support price increases, at the end of the day price segmentation of kgirls and other groups in the sex work industry is well delineated. There's definitely overlap and outliers but you don't expect to be paying kgirl prices for SWs or AMPs prices for published porn stars, etc.
Now, Shannon can set any price she wants as its her choice but whether she'll have a sustained and reliable following is another matter. I have no doubt that there will be people paying $500 to see her, whether they were former clients, new clients, or just don't care or know better. Personally, I did a double take at the price and will not be seeing her. I did see her at $280 and $300 and while it was good, it's not $500 good. If she had reemerged in another space that was more commensurate to the price, say PD, and shed her kgirl past and focused more as an Asian courtesan I think she would have been better received. IMO, I believe she is just capitalizing on the current lack of quality kgirl inventory before travel restrictions ease.
[QUOTE=AnthonyPat11;5396309]If this is her and still looks as good as she did last time I saw her she would be worth it. And I write that reluctantly as I thought her jump to $300 was a hard pill to swallow back int he day. She said it was to weed out the less desirables. Would be interested to know what she looks like and what happened with her 'retirement'. She had a pretty good setup for what I understand.
All hail the Queen. She is definitely special in the game.[/QUOTE]Weeding out less desirables at a $20 difference is just a silly excuse for her. For one, it's a petty amount. In addition, she can easily just let the booker know to BL them (and she has) from seeing her. She was just pushing the envelope to see how much more she can charge. It's GPS, pure and simple. Now she has wised up incorporating both weeding out and maximizing what she can earn at the $500 price point. Given her track record, it'll give her a better chance at finding the next suitable sugar daddy.

She's all booked up for the days she's working and will be leaving again. A quick cash grab.
[QUOTE=AlexisDavis;5396377]What makes her so much better than everyone else? Any detailed reviews on her? Looks and service are top notch?[/QUOTE]It's not so much that she was better than anyone else, but that she can hold her own when compared to heavy hitters at the time (Chloe, Reah, Megan, Stella, Rebecca, Gi-L, etc.). As such she garnered a good following and can afford to command a higher price. Contemporaneous legends did that too but (speculating here) I think the agencies reigned in how much to not alienate and antagonize the rest of their roster. But now with crazy a la carte pricing being what they are, I think it's become more of a free for all. Bottom line: it's your money, see her if you like what you saw and got from her previously and consider $500 to be worth it. Personally, I don't.
[QUOTE=ID2468;5396738]It was scheduled to be a short comeback tour. She's all booked up for the days she's working and will be leaving again. A quick cash grab.[/QUOTE]If that's the case, she's a shrewd and capitalist businesswoman to the end. I can appreciate and not fault her from capitalizing on her past reputation but I will blame her for the ripple effects this may potentially cause in the kgirl scene when all is said and done.

Sweetasiangem is known to play b&s games so their credibility is well known in the trickery department.
[QUOTE=PlutoKiller;5397109]Is one of her signature moves to suck her clients toes?[/QUOTE]Only saw her once and believe so.
Had a great body but face wasn't for me.
High tier pornstar body. Very toned and athletic, fake tits from what I can remember. Face had too much work done for my taste. Service was okay. I could see paying 300 but not close to 500 when I can see two BBFS girls for almost the same price. Stella and Cari are worth the extra for GFE.
Just my opinion.
Hope it doesn't become a new standard. If not I might be priced out or move on to another scene.
