Observations

As many others have noted, the hobby has been declining in recent years. It just isn't as much fun as it used to be. Prices are generally through the roof. Of note among all that stuff, however, is Tryst. This is a site supposedly owned by providers. For many people who don't subscribe to a paying service, such as P411, it is the only one trustworthy in this biz. They should still be cautious.

First, the site's layout just encourages overcharging. The asking price is prominently displayed up front on every profile. This obviously encourages competition to charge more, not less, under the old adage of "if that bitch charges 4, I'll charge 5."

Many providers that advertise on Tryst also advertise on STG or other sites, often offering services at half the quoted prices on Tryst. Recently, there's been sort of a flood of really pretty girls advertising for services at around 2 bills. This is way under the standard, under which even the bottom of the barrel, fat ugly old hags ask for 300 or more. Not surprisingly, all those pretty girls require a deposit. They are all a scam. I will stay away from anyone that asks for a deposit, and actually, trying to connect with anyone from Tryst.

Are the deposit girls the ones with no phone number and just OF for contact info. I’ve never reached out, but they are becoming quite annoying when trying to find legit providers.

This is perhaps the most capitalist occupation: supply and demand.
If a person doesn't like the services provided they can shop elsewhere.
The only option is shop elsewhere. That's what you are doing.
Each provider knows their market and what is best for them in relation to supply and demand. There are Walmart providers and there are Saks Fifth Ave. providers. Same for clients. Shop accordingly.

not ALL girls on here and Tryst are over-proced..you gotta do hard research

But I do see what youre saying..I think alot of girls raised rates cause prices in everyday life has skyrocketed and theyre just trying to survive.

To go along with this threadand the comments that have been made i am doing some very serious refecting on this very topic and plan on changing some things once i logically decide on the options i will not tolerate some of the attitudes out there

It is getting harder and harder to do participate in the hobby. between price upgrades and just getting someone to call/text you back. Dallas is the best.

Most these girls on all platforms dont give 2 shits what people think here.
Most dont even know what eccie is or care.
This community is so small to the overall hobby.
What we say here will never impact anything.
Guys bitch about deposits ...yet more and more girls do it and continue to do it.
Guys bitch about attitudes, they dont care...someone will pay if you dont.
Guys bitch about rates and have for years yet pricing has continued to go up.
Nothing will change.
As long as there is vagina to sell, men will pay to get it.
Its too powerful and stronger than we are!

How does having a rate right where you can find it have to do with the site having provider's over charging? TRYST does not have a price set what we can charge. If don't like the rate that's right in your face then you can just move on to a rate that works for you with out having to search for a long time..

Most bitch about are no rates listed!

As touring provder as You & myself and we both have seen how the cost of hotels has gone up so much and the cost of supplies.

Women have half of the money and all of the pussy.
Hardly a level playing field.

I can't agree with the OP that the hobby is 'declining' but I will acknowledge that it is changing. But, that has been true since ancient times. Life changes, everything changes. We just can't let that rob us of the fun.

So far, I haven't. In fact, I'm finding just the opposite. I've always preferred older companions and as I age myself, I tend to relate to them more. I'm finding funnier, wittier, and more eloquent and elegant women that I never did before. Does it cost more? Yes, of course. So does dining out and dry cleaning. We pay what is required for what we really want. But we age quickly in this present world and, as always, can't take money with us when we leave. So, I've resolved to spend it on what makes me (really) happy.

All the best everyone.

I havent raised my rates and still am surviving lol
i just have learned how to travel cheaply


but a gal can charge what she wants and a guy can pay what he wants

its all about what makes ya happy

gina yre lookin hot hot hot!!!

I understand the rise in prices. Unfortunately, now I can only play a handful of times a year. Anybody that has sent a deposit and has been stood up good luck getting your deposit back. Won't ever do that again.
