Spearmint Rhino Downtown L. A.
It does not seem that anybody posted about the price increase on the 15 mn VIP dances: $130 on Wed. & Sat., instead of $100.
I think that the other days became $150 and that's for the daytime. The nighttime dances might be more.
I believe they changed the prices when the dancers became employees instead of independent contractors.
At least you could bang them in VIP at SRCOI
[QUOTE=TheCamel;4230141]Excellent points made here. I assume that you went through the VIP without meeting her tip demands? I believe those with massive inherited and sometimes even earned wealth who aren't taken aback by her asking price report that she will deliver on their filthiest fantasies, but if you negotiate and bring her down to earth she'll just take your money and send you home feeling the way you did when you lost the next 3 months rent money on a few hands of Vegas blackjack. These GPS dancers have infected Synn from SRCOI which was always a club where you could find hot dancers ready to vacuum the contents of your wallet and pockets. Synn was more down to earth. A club with many hot or hot enough dancers who could cut a good deal with customers. A good deal being in my business an agreement that leaves both parties to the transaction slightly pissed off. Most of the Synn GPS crew that I know about including Suki, Alyssa and Ivanka, also work at Sahara in Anaheim. They are standouts and they do have the reps that they deliver IF you come across with the preposterous tips that they demand, and there are plenty of rich boys in SoCal who feel no pain paying the price while other less fortunate customers can't control their testicular impulses and slowly work their way toward financial ruin.
But as you said, there are still a good number of nice looking dancers at Synn who are good to their customers for a price that is fair and just even if you end up feeling a little pissed that the price wasn't just a little less. Any way you look at it this is an expensive hobby if you limit yourself to hooking up with attractive playmates.[/QUOTE]GPS is fine--as long as they deliver. I've never paid more than $$$$ for CFS at SRCOI. Many will think that's a GPS price but for a smoking hot stripper ITC-I consider that a GOOD VALUE.
You get what you pay for.
[QUOTE=TheCamel;4230153]$$$$ is low end for GPS pricing but still more than high enough. But if you have it to piss away enjoy yourself. "Value" is only as subjective as the size of one's financial portfolio. One man's good value is another's entry to big trouble down the road when it devolves from being an occasional hobby into a regular habit and addiction though even that person may describe the cost of an appetite for self-destruction as good value. I have been in this monger world for decades, and have seen it all including many friends and acquaintances falling into the trap of the sirens which along with their own weak impulse control, ultimately led them to self-destruct to the absolute max. Sometimes fall from the top to the bottom with surprising speed.[/QUOTE]I suppose there are newbies in this hobby who fall prey to their own weaknesses, etc. I've been in the hobby for decades as well and I've learned this --you get what you pay for, and never pay more than you can afford.
Observation: The Holiday; Santa Fe Springs
I was driving along Norwalk Blvd, and passed by "The Holiday". The place has been closed for months, with only ABC change of ownership notification posted on the front door. But today, I saw a 30 yd roll off trash dumpster in front. It was full of debris. There was a crew inside, and it looks like they were doing a full demo in preparation for a reconfiguration of the floor plan. The front facade of the building had been removed completely, in preparation for a new surface.
Reminder: the longtime owner wanted to retire, and sold the club to a long time employee some time ago--but retained ownership of the land and building. In late 2018, a company (that owns several strip clubs) purchased the real estate. The owner of the club sold to this same firm, perhaps fearing the new landlords could push them out. It looks like the new club owners are putting up a lot of money into this project.
