I really have no idea what this thread about.

the OP and others, including myself, have indicated that the provider may be justified in requesting reimbursement for any costs she incurred preparing for the session; baby sitter, room, parking or transportation, etc. beyond that, things get murky.
this hobby is full of folks, men and ladies, of all different stripes. really, the only thing we count on is the word of the other party. and good luck with that.
fwiw, i am not sympathetic to your remark associating ncns by providers with the amount of her fee. i have experienced excellent tcb and bcd services from what i would describe as "value" providers. and I am very grateful to them personally and professionally for their generous natures.
postscript: the next time your phone rings, i think both of us realize ... it will not be me on the other end.
