Sauna One issue and resolution
Stopped by Sauna One recently. Escorted to a room, 80 for the house, very cute girl came in, Kenya, Keanna. Something like that. Said she was from Dallas and had arrived recently. Table shower was ok, got to the room and after a 2 min rub was asked "what do you want" I said everything, and she said put the money on the table I'll be right back. I put 120 on the table and was a bit concerned because we never discussed price, but I pay what I pay so I put it on the table.
She came back, counted it and said she needed 140. I said 120 is all I have. She countered with a lower level service for 120, I countered with a lower price for that service. She declined. I asked her again if she'd accept that amount, she said no, so I got up and got dressed. On the way out mamasan met me in the hall and I explained what happened and that I'd need half the house fee back as I'd only been there 20 min. She was very nice about it and had someone else take care of everything.
The next girl was super nice and things went well. The moral of the story is set your price and walk if they don't want to accept it.
I'm posting this because I've been doing this a long time and never got caught with the "put it on the table" until now. Usually if price isn't discussed the provider accepts what tip is given but by playing my hand service wise she was able to negotiate down based off the situation. Know what you want and what you will pay for it.
