P411 Discount Field... How do the women interpret the field?

While I totally agree that usually a mention of rates is cause for no appointment.
But,I have offered discounts as well for Date-Check Members and I had a gent who was not sure if the discount was already taken off the rates that are posted.I explained the rates that are posted does not include any discounts.I rather it be clear before meeting than be awkward in person.Every lady is different some might not respond to a question regarding a P411 or Date-check discount and some will.
I will respond if the guys are P411 or Date-Check verified with okays but I will not if the gent is not a member of either one of these sites.
So,when in doubt ask if you are not sure I agree send her message through p411 if there is indeed some doubt.

TY.

I have seen it a couple different ways.

For example: $300 Hr
P411 Discount $25 = $275 Hr.

$225 Hr $450 2 Hrs
P411 Discount $25 off 2 Hr session = $425 2 Hrs.

Whatever the discount amount is...it is off the 1 hour session rate unless otherwise noted. Originally Posted by john353

My rates posted on P411 are the same as on my website.
For my P411 discount in that box I state 50 off 3-4hrs appts and 100 off of 5+hr appts. Originally Posted by jaydalee

The problem is--as others mentioned--then it just says "$25 discount". I think the problem is most ladies assume sessions are typically 1 hr. If a session is one hr, then the discount is clear. I almost always look for 2 or 3 hr dates and then the question of 3 x (300-25) or (3 x 300) - 25 becomes relevent.

Most the time I don't consider it a big issue--I assume it is per session, and if I happen to overpay what the lady was expecting she has rarely complained. But occasionally I have looked at a lady's profile and how I interpret the discount means the difference between affording to see her and not. In those cases I think I agree with Ginger's approach:

If you're really not sure about it, send the lady a PM on P411 asking something simple like "I want to book 2 hours, with your P411 discount rate but, I just wanted to verify what it is. I have X Okays here feel free to check out my profile to learn more about me & if you need any additional information from me feel free to ask. Talk to you soon." I will respond to a $ question like this because it shows me you're putting effort into the session by being open about providing screening info & not asking "If I come see you for 2 hours whats (the price, my discount)?"

"My rates are $250 an hour"

"My Discount is $25"

Written that way is a 2 hr date $475 (2 hrs at 250 an hour = 500, minus 25) or $450 (2 hrs at (250-25))? Answer: you can't tell, and I've had ladies tell me both interpretations.

The whole point of this thread is that some P411 ads have ambiguous wording and guys are trying NOT to misread the rates.

You mean guys read ads?

And even then, not always well.

You still reading too much into the ads.

I have a slightly unusual discount for P411 and I wonder if it is unclear. $50 off each hour after the first. Seems easy for me, but I've had questions about it.

First hour=full price; $50 off each hour after the first.
Or, 1st hour =$$$; 2nd =$$.5; 3rd =$$.5 and so on.

Even I wouldn't have any questions about either one.

So, you $25 off a 1 hour session, and the same $25 off a 2 -hour session. A discount on only the first hour? The second hour is higher than the first?

I don't think it's so simple. I think it's confusing. And if I can't figure it out, I don't book. Too much chance for a misunderstanding. Originally Posted by charlestudor2005

Stop making it so difficult. It's so simple a 1st grader could figure it out.
