Massage Parlor Reports (Formerly Pine)

What did you get for $2? At Pine once you get past the second door there is a hallway. Massage rooms on right, Sauna and TS on left...

I've been hitting Cozy quite a bit lately, been in the area a lot.

Alternated between Sue and the newer girl Hannah. Standard stuff with Sue, Hannah does an automatic finger in the ass.

Usual rates. Nothing spectacular.

Been going to Sue forever, it seems like. I want more from her but seems unwilling to provide.

BTW - been having a craving for a good chinese apartment. Before I start combing the CAD numbers in 847, if anyone has a good one they frequent I'd appreciate the PM. Thanks.

I have been interested to see the recent posts on Cozy.

It has been about 4 yrs since I have been to Cozy, and I would appreciate an update on the range of services.

They used to be good for a guaranteed low priced ($20 tip) hj, but not much more.

The owner back then was Kim, a very pretty, but older (late 40s) woman. I got to know her a bit, and we even dated a little (dinner and some light make out).

However, as I got to know her better, she started to restrict what the girls would do for me--and would not put out enough herself.

Does any one know if she is still there?

Also, how is the quality of the girls?

Since then, I have been a Chinese apt. regular.

They are a sure thing at a fixed price with pretty consistent quality.

However, I miss the glory days of Jessica and the lake county amps. As indicated on other posts, I have found an amp heaven in Warren, OH. It would be great to see that kind of service again in the far north burbs.

P

This all takes place on early afternoon last week.

I went to Cozy for the first and last time. I get there and ask to see Hannah. "You been here before?" "Sure, but I don't live in the area so its been awhile." Then mamasan speaks korean to another lady (mid 40s?) and she says that Hannah just left. Then they talk a little more and then she tells me that no one named Hannah works here. A red flag went up in the back of my head telling me to take it as a loss and try elsewhere. Always listen to that voice. The TS was ok, with a little attention to the back door area, but on the flip she steered clear of the area in need of thorough cleaning. Red flag #2. During the massage she kept a sheet over me (red flag #3), and when she said she was all done I told her and showed her that she had forgotten one spot. She said they changed and don't do that anymore. She gave a good massage, but I left unsatisfied so I got dressed and grabbed my tip and left.

Decided to recoup my loss at OK. Another waste of time. I get there and one of you mongers was already there so another lady I've never seen before gave me a proper TS. I sat in the sauna for 10 minutes or so until my fellow monger left, then Suzy was there to greet me with a smile and led me into a room. Everything went fine until the flip. At that point a fellow monger comes in. Then a few minutes later a second one comes in. I typically go to OK in the early afternoon and I can probably count on one hand the number of times someone else was there getting a massage at the same time. So now Suzy has 2 guys queued up and she wants me to pop like right now. No access to the enhanced funbags, no possibility of the elusive russian finish, and her looking pissed at me because I don't pop in under a minute. When we are finished she says thank you, grabs the tip and goes off to the next guy.

And I wonder why I don't venture to this area much.

I hear you, not too long after I started this thread I came to the same conclusion and stopped patronizing these places too...

Went to Pine on Fri and saw Jenny (it was hard to understand). I normally see Sunny, but she only works Mon and Tues. Anyhow the TS was very good, she cleaned the boys up nice. The massage was even better. For. 6 tip she was naked with me and she spoke some good french and finished me off with a nice lesson in russian. Also, my hands were allowed to roam the entire frontier. A good way to start my weekend.

Stopped at Pine tonight for my first AMP experience, after reading about the great TS in this forum. I think they were nervous to see a new face. Or I look like LE? She asked a lot of questions. Where do I work? Why do I come there? And said "You no make trouble" several times.

Anyway, paid the standard $. 8 door fee, and immediately felt rushed. There were a couple younger girls there, but somehow I got Anna, an older lady. Maybe in her 40s, average looks. The TS consisted of a few quick swipes with the loufa, after which she handed it to me and asked me to wash the rest myself! A quick rinse and off to the sauna. Where I barely picked up a magazine when she asked me to move to the massage room. I figured my chances at extras was getting slimmer by the minute.

Here at least, she seemed to slow down and take her time. The massage was about average. This part lasted 30-40 minutes. She threw the towel aside after the first few minutes. On the flip, she immediately offered HR to my surprise! But made me promise "no make trouble" first. I offered $. 3 and she laughed, and wanted $. 5 but refused to pay more than $. 4 and had no trouble roaming.

Question for you mongers. When you pay for an hour, do you get an hour massage, or just an hour total in & out, including TS, sauna, and extras?

I typically am shorted a little bit. You always get shorted if its croweded. On your first time at any new AMP go to this board and get a couple of names. The answer is always yes when they ask you if you been there before no matter what.

The hour starts when you say hello and the ending just depends on how busy they are. If they've got guys waiting, mamasan will always short you to keep the turnstiles turning and the cash flowing. It does mean that you'll have a shorter wait if you're the later one walking in and it gives the girls a little time to clean up between sessions which is important to me. I don't think that I've ever had the main event rushed, but sometimes the cooldown and relaxation get shorten some. Just the cost of doing business with a busy spa.

She asked if I'd been there before, and I said yes, but I think she saw through it. I had some names prepared if she asked for my usual girl, but she never asked. I just wanted to go with the flow on my first visit. Next time will be different.

Great post, Rockets. Enjoyed reading it. Thanks for the info.

I hear this a lot on the board, but getting service on the first visit has rarely been a problem for me. I have been to dozens of AMPs in several different states across the southeast and midwest and have always told the truth if asked whether I have been there before. I am a horrible liar and have no doubt most mamasans would see right through me. Instead I put them at ease by casually working previous visits at other AMPs into the conversation. In going on three years I have only been denied extras twice. One was a legitimate shop I wandered into by mistake and the other is infamous for being hit or miss.

yeah, i'm getting kind of tired with Libertyville over the past few months. OK was dead to me several months ago when i got bored with the same old finish with Suzy. Rotated on to Cozy, but flipped the bit with them last visit when i really pushed for her to give me oral and she denied me. And i've been going there for months.

Think it's time to hit the apartments again for a while. Where's my copy of CAD?

Mt Prospect board shows Singapore bust, hinted that they got the inside info from this website....

I know this is my first post in this forum, I've got a few on the MP board if you want to check me out first.

I decided to give Pine one more chance. Although I have been there, I got the "first time" treatment even when saying the other people I saw prior. Another dud in the water. Not sure if it was the one that I got, or if they are getting scared of the news of the recent busts else where. I need to find other places that are worth the drive. Only wish I had another chance to go to Sing. I might have to even think of taking the train to Chicago. If anyone knows a place pretty close to a one of the metra train stops. PM me.

Stopped by pine again last night. Despite mamasan recognizing me and obviously knowing my way around, I was disappointed. The massage was more thorough and longer than last time, so I was happy about that. But at the 45 minute mark, she suddenly says "okay, we're done" and is out the door before I can say a word. Very cold treatment. Maybe spooked by Singapore as others have suggested? If anybody has had better luck lately, I'd love to hear about it.

Has anyone seen the new girl named Julie at Cozy yet? Is she any good? Sue has been really conservative lately.

I saw the new girl at Cozy this weekend and had a nice time. She is younger and pretty good looking.

I will say it's very odd for me at Cozy cause the last two times Sue thinks I'm some guy that posts bad things on a website or something. Funny thing is I never posted anything about Cozy and hardly ever go. I must look like one of you guys who she had trouble with or something. She gave me a two minute lecture before my session with the new girl but all was forgivin I guess.

Pine seems fine to me. They bumped their hourly up to $80... or I just don't remember it being that high last time.

Usual suspects were present and a good time was had.

I have never been shot down at any AMP. The keys are to be totally naked with no towel when they come back in, and to pretip at least $30 if you expect HS. Never say its your first time... When they ask, kind of look at them like in the universal "are you crazy" look, pause, then answer with one word "yes" or "no" (depending if they ask "you bin here befo?" or "fis time here?")

I don't recall ever being turned down either, been asked the usual questions before, but never not left a tip.

OK - so I dropped by Cozy tonight for the first time. I was met by an asian lady that looked to be mid-50s. She showed to a room and offered a shower. I declined. She asked for 80 so I took the advice and gave her 100. A few minutes later I was ready and another say ~50 year old lady came. She gave a great massage for a half hour and then said "all done."

I said, "hey I was expecting a finish." And she firmly said "No." That was it.

I will never go back to cozy again, and recommend others avoid it!

What a rip-off.

I had the exact same experience my first and only time there. Sad thing is I figured I would try my luck at OK since I was in the neighborhood. Suzy was with a guy so I had to wait 15-20 minutes. Then about half way though my "hour" a monger came and she gave me the rush job with none of the extras I used to get. I know some guys have great fun when they go, but I've sworn off of Libertyville spas.

I lived in Lake county for 10 years, visited pretty much all of the spas over that period of time. I started with the long gone Royal spa on Milwaukee, I was regular until they closed up and they were the best by far for that area. Cozy spa used to be good early on but the quality of talent and service dropped off dramatically. I never had a good experience at Mich's, talent old, massage not worth it. Pine spa was descent as far as talent, the massage itself was mediocre, but topless was easy to get. O.K spa up north was good as long as she was not busy. If she was busy it was rushed and mechanical, wam bam. One good thing is after she got her implants she did not mind showing them off. Too bad about her predicament, I hope they don't throw the book at her.

Bottom line, Pine spa is about the only place I would barely recommend, of course that may have changed, it has been awhile since I have been in that area. Lake county as a whole has never been that great for this type of hobby within the last several years.

Happy Holidays

Stopped at Pine a couple of days ago. Price still $80 for the hour, but actually got the whole hour! That was a surprise. Saw Tina, but I'm not sure if it was the same Tina I saw earlier in the summer. Always tried to get back to see her but they always said "she's on vacation". The old Tina was much smaller and much more energetic, gave a better massage and table shower. But, still had a good time.

Was there about a month on a Sunday night, was the only one open among the 3.

Greeted by an older lady (I believe late 50s/early 60s), if Suzy from OK was 55 (who looked younger than that to me), I can't imagine how old the lady from Michs was b/c she looked every bit 60+, plus she was a smoker.

Was looking for a good massage and opted for the hour, decent massage, and seeing her, I would decline extras (I declined her to wash near sensitive areas and did it myself).

The thing that irritated me was the amount of questions, well beyond the "have you been before?" and "what do you do"?

Those were asked...

Name (expected)
DOB
Where do I live
How much did I weigh when I was born (wtf?)
Brother or sisters?

I was getting pissed and about to walk out but the massage was decent. I didn't indicate that I would giving a tip so nothing extra was offered, thankfully.

I am never going back given her poor hygiene and interrogation skills.

I stopped by Cozy Spa the other day and did not even receive any service. Old ugly hag met me at the door and upon seeing me, just told me that they were too busy and their appts were full for the day... Yeah right!

All I can say is that it sucks to live in Lake County!

I guess OK Spa is completely gone now.

I think it is still open, I drive by there all the time and I drove by a couple of times after they were shut down and it looked like they were open again. Obviously I don't think anything that happened will happen there nor would I TOFTT.

Pine is prob. the best local place for a massage followed by Cozy, which neither are very god nor worth it.

It's bad enough to where I'm realistically considering heading to Kenosha at that place down 52nd st.

[QUOTE=Beisbolboy]It's bad enough to where I'm realistically considering heading to Kenosha at that place down 52nd st.[/QUOTE]

For the love of god, don't do it man!

It's been well over a year since my last trip there, and from recent posts nothing has changed. A 10 minute ho-hum massage followed by 5 minutes of "come on baby."

This area sucks as far as AMPs go, (some one correct me if I'm wrong) so I've been exploring EMPs. While very few have table showers, I like the fact that they actually put effort into the massages.

I've considered that as well, though I had a rush job at Lisunia and based on looks I prefer Europeans.

I don't recall any in the far N. Burbs/S WI still around.

Was thinking of going to PS in Libertyville.

Any info or hints about this place anyone can share?

RTFF. Do a search on Pine as there are plenty of postings about it. And since no one has posted anything about Pine since November just assume that its still status quo.

Charges were mysteriously dropped against Suzi (not her real name) of OK Spa on 2/26...

[QUOTE=Rub & Tugged]Charges were mysteriously dropped against Suzi (not her real name) of OK Spa on 2/26...[/QUOTE]


Interesting, wonder if it was a fine and a plea and don't come back around? I'm sure they had the evidence to press charges and go forward.

No plea or fine..... dropped....

Beisbolboy,

If you get a chance to drive by OK anytime soon please let us know if they are open. I tried to reach them by phone but it is still disconnected.

When chargers are dropped its usually because of lack of evidence. But here's the catch since it didn't go before a judge they can always bring it up again when they get more evidence. You are better off going before a judge, chances are its a weak case and you can beat it. Next time around she might not be so lucky.

No problem, I'll prob. check sometime in the near future.
