All anything is worth on any given day is what one person is willing to pay that another is willing to accept........ I would rationalize that the OP's justification for a high rate was rejected by the folks in Austin....

Some Possible Lessons learned:
1. Under 25 compared to over 45--makes a difference
2. Nice ass on a proportioned body compared to large ass and belly on a not so well proportioned body--hit the gym and fitness center, that can be fixed
3. $250/hr compared with $300/hr. Anything above $260/hr in ATX must better be star quality, since $225-250 is the norm for most of our local high-quality ladies. Adjust your rates down for next trip, should you come back.
4. Recent reviews compared with old reviews--run a review special to get some local guys to step up when you first arrive--fresh reviews in IP will always light a fire in ATX. Some of our best local Austin providers are mid-40s, provide great service at reasonable rates, and have a line of guys waiting for an opportunity to schedule.
5. Hot, fresh young look compared with a not so young look--work on your positive thinking and mental attitude--it will show in your posts and writing. Less than positive attitude--ATX guys remember those who do nothing but whine.
6. Keeping Austin Weird means ATX guys tend to support local ladies and frequent travelers who have established followings in ATX. You need to do more that just show up and post an add in ATX.
7. Finally, Economics is a dismal science and the marketplace may be a cruel mistress at times; however, positive attitude and timely action to address today's issue may change the day for your next trip, to whatever city you choose.
