Hagglers-- Seriously

Randall Creed's Avatar
M-my name is Rambro, and....I'm, I'm a haggler.

It started out all fun and games. I said to myself, 'I could quit any time', you know. It all started with kids' lemonade stands. They'd want a quarter for a cup, but I would talk them down to 20 cents. Next thing you know, I'm in department stores, looking for every discount possible. Then I'd seek freebies from hot chicks on the internet. On and on until one day I realized what a madman it turned me into. It made me feel powerful, like I was in control. But I wasn't in control. The addiction to saving money was. Now I know. But with you guys' help, I can get through this.

If I could just get a hit (a freebie), everything will be OK.
I find it incredibly cute when there is a thread about haggling, and guys who have attempted to haggle with me (of all people, I'm extremely reasonably priced) are always up in the thread apologizing for all those "nasty hagglers".

Hey-- if you're a haggler, its ok. Just own what you are. That's all I'm sayin' Originally Posted by GracePreston

Lmao amen grace. There are def a couple of hagglers who commented & even a guy who literally "checked me" after I told him a certain service was not available when he asked (which was pictures).. It's something I only do if I am totally comfortable w the client, and without him asking me for it. Lo and behold, when a review was posted the next day with (OMG!) pictures, he got all over my ass about it. Thank god I never saw that guy. IMO that's not really haggling but he was def bitching about not getting his way. Boo freakin hoo. LOL

I could point em out but I'll just let that marinate

I do not recall in all of my years of hobbying ever asking for a discount. In fact, I have a bad habit of rounding up, mostly because I hate counting. That being said just because a provider is offended because someone has the gall to ask for a lesser rate does not make it wrong. There is a good chance that the posted ad directly above or below yours says "make me an offer". Almost anything in this world is open to negotiation. Just as he has the right to ask you have the right to say no. Everything is worth what someone is willing to pay.
That does make sense. I was getting a lot of hagglers at my previous 325/hr but now that it's changed I've not had many complaints. I had to bit the bullet this time but I don't think specials should be offered normally when a new provider comes to town.

I'll have to put something in my ad or profile. Like I said this isn't the normal for Denver guys so that would be why it's not on my website.

I think men see you are visiting and they know you already shelled out money for a hotel, airfare etc and so getting appointments is important. They figure that's a weakness. I don't think it's "Dallas" that is the problem... I think it's that you are a traveling lady. I travel everywhere - NYC, Miami, LA, Seattle and Dallas guys are actually pretty cool..the best around in my opinion. (Though I've never been to Denver and it's now on my "to do" list!)
Also, just my 2 cents.. Your photos are so so beautiful. Only show what feels right in your soul and never ever show your full face. No matter what. A little nipple action never hurt anyone but keep your best self sacred.
Olivia, your rates aren't bad at all...

How long will you be in Dallas?

Supply and Demand... This market is flooded and this city has tons of talent... Ladies have the right to chose their prices and guys have the right to try to negotiate... I'm in the business world, commercial sales, and it's stupid to not try to negotiate the best rate possible... If neither of you agree then both parties can just move on with no hard feelings..
First of all I'm not a haggler by any means I pay what's expected everytime. With that being said some of you women that have commented do not have luxury quality pussy there are only a few providers in this area with luxury quality pussy for example taitlyn would be considered luxury pistol marks, Melannie Star, Ariel Assault, that's luxury there are more names but I don't have time to name them all don't take it personal if I haven't named u and u should be on here it's just I don't have the time . I think pricing is fair in this market there are some that are overpriced but hey it's your pussy price it as high as you want. There is also some underpriced luxury is based on looks and services provides

You need to head to Fort Worth. Us Westerners are much more reasonable.

I am not a haggler and I always pay the posted rate. That being said, let's look at the other side of the coin. If your posted rate is what you expect then why do some of you ask for a tip at the end of or even during the session. If you ask me, asking for a tip and haggling are both unacceptable. Tips are to be given at the clients discretion and the same holds true for the provider offering discounts.

Providers are trying to get the most and give the least... Hobbyists are trying to get the most and give the least... If you don't like it and you think your pussy is so golden and you "command" a higher rate, then more power to you... Personally I have yet to meet ANYONE who is worth more than $250 an hour... Hell those are attorney/doctor prices...

Sorry OP but this is Dallas... Plenty of talent here and because of that we can afford to negotiate... My advice would be to stay on the west coast... Suckers are a dime a dozen over there and it's probably more to your liking..

Good points.

I do not tip in addition to the donation because IMO, the best tip a provider can get is a repeat visit.
