Also, might save my dough, but also really want to try European Massage by Cave Creek & Cactus, near me! Plus one of the girls there looked promising to me! So might be my next stop!
[/QUOTE]You should definitely try a few other spots first. Not because the Big 3 aren't great, but because it's hard to appreciate just how good they are until you've seen what the average AMP experience around Phoenix looks like.
A lot of us end up taking the good experiences for granted after a while. Then you visit a few random places and suddenly things start making a lot more sense. 😂
There's a reason certain shops keep getting mentioned over and over. Sometimes you need a couple of mediocre sessions to fully appreciate what separates the good from the average.
My Big 3 Is Red 8, Infinity, and Lucky.
[QUOTE=Rmal69;7627323]Is there more than Big 3? I know Red 8, Infinity, and Golden Panda, getting rave reviews. But also see K Spa, Lucky, Oasis, and Gem have rave reviews too.
[/QUOTE]Let's set the record straight.
I have always said the Big 3 is Red 8, Infinity, and Lucky.
Lucky has to be in the Big 3 because Dream is my baseline for all scores and rankings. Once you have a baseline, everything gets easier. YMMV, but in my view, Dream is a 10 in every category. Looks, service, attitude. The complete package for me. I know some of you guys will disagree, and that's fine.
If Dream is a 10, then I need providers at other shops who are capable of delivering a comparable experience. I've seen that consistently at Infinity and Red 8. And Cozy and Desert (but those are both sadly a thing of the past now).
I've seen it occasionally at other places, but not often enough to move them into the same tier. That's really the difference for me. Almost any shop can have a hot streak or a standout provider. What separates the tiers is whether the results keep repeating.
One great provider gets my attention. Repeated great providers earn a ranking.
That's why the power rankings are what they are today. If another shop starts producing talent of comparable quality to Dream consistently over a long period of time, I'm more than willing to adjust the rankings. But until then, the Big 3 stays the Big 3.
Also, recent reviews matter more to me than reviews from years ago. Shops change. Management changes. Lineups change. What was true three years ago may not be true today. I also tend to give more weight to reports from established members than brand-new accounts. Not because newer members can't post great information, but because context matters. If ten different experienced members arrive at the same conclusion independently over time, that's a much stronger signal than one or two new accounts posting exclusively about a single shop.
For example, compare this review from CoqueMeat, a respected senior member with 550+ posts who has reviewed a wide variety of shops and independents:
[QUOTE=CoqueMeat;7627440]I went, hoping for Fendi based on everyone's glowing reviews of her, but got typical AMP worker instead. Nice table shower, back to the room and wanted more for BBBJ vs CBJ. I told her no boom boom, so stuck to standard donation. She agreed but wasn't too happy I don't think.[/QUOTE]Now compare that to this review from a newer account with 8 posts, 7 of which are glowing reviews about the same shop:
[QUOTE=Desertmonger69;7617056]
Yooo ya'll need to try out this Eurasian queen Fendi. Super hot body, enhanced perfectly shaped tits and ass...
Literally something out of a porno and it's available here in Sun City somehow.
Fendi is open for a lot of stuff, and is also super beautiful so def come check it out.
[/QUOTE]Neither review automatically has to be right or wrong. But if you're asking why I weigh some reviews more heavily than others, this is exactly why.
When a member has hundreds of posts spanning multiple shops, providers, and years on the board, I have a much better understanding of their frame of reference. I know what they've seen, what they've liked, what they've disliked, and how their reviews compare to everyone else's.
That's not to say newer members can't provide valuable information. They absolutely can. But context matters.
Do you now see why I take some reviews more seriously than other reviews?
Every shop is going to get some promotional posts. That's just part of the game. The key is looking for repeated outcomes across different reviewers. I pay attention to what keeps repeating, not what gets said once.
Anybody can have a superstar.
Very few shops can replace one.
That's the difference between temporary hype and an established ranking in the Big 3.

I had a great experience with Linda and tried to repeat but drew Lisa instead. Lisa was fine but really hoped to see Linda again. Alas, I went again and got Gigi. She was older but with nice fake tits and could suck a golf ball through a garden hose. Her massage was terrible but her BBBJ, CG, and RCG were damn good. We finished in K9. Gigi told me girls never stay more than a week and Linda will probably never return to the AMP. I will move on and try Lucky Spa that is literally in the next parking lot.
CiCi at Spa63 - 67th ave and Olive Ave. Professional service
I came in today and met CiCi. She said she was scheduled to start Monday, but she came in over the weekend to earn some extra money. Her English is getting a little better and I didn't need to use the translator app today. CiCi has worked here before and she gives a pretty good massage to start and I normally book a full hour to enjoy her abilities. I paid 60 for the hour and was not disappointed. She does all the good things that you would expect. Great table shower fun, ass play, then back to the room for some seductive massage. On the flip we did the normal 66, BBBJ, then on to CFS. Asian cow girl to start. I didn't last long today, and blew in the bag as soon as she let me get on top. Normal tip 1. 6 - then she gave me a scalp massage and rubbed my legs a little. She said a new younger girl is starting here Monday that I've never met, so I'll definitely stop in to see who it is.
