I think the bad economy has had a big effect. I'm sure a lot of agencies and working girls are really struggling to bring in the bucks. I'm lucky my income hasn't been affected too much, but still I'm a lot more weary of my spending than I was.

But besides that a lot of it is because I think the quality of sex workers has decline a bit. I browse the directory listings and agency rosters and theirs nothing really that stands out or looks particularly appealing. Nothing particularly unique or interesting. And most of them all provide the exact same kind of white bread, by the book, boring service. It's as if they are different robots with the exact same programing routine.

At the moment there's really only a few working girls I actually want to see and am excited to see. And they all happen to be the ones that are either hard to book or work infrequently, or both. If I see any others its really only to scratch that itch until I can get a booking with one of the exciting girls.

Well said! I'm in the same boat though unlike your lucky self my income has been impacted, sadly.

Is it a case of girls being photographed in very similar ways? Advertisement images looking flat, boring and a little copy paste? Or something else that just doesn’t appeal enough?
 
It's an interesting one.
If I want to punt, I do find a way, but the amount I am able to spend has been significantly reduced.
I have investment properties, with the interest rates like they are payments are well up. Business turnover is similar but costs have risen sharply so there's little profit.
I have kids at a private school, the fee's are a killer.

Re quality of the girls working, I book different girls to most of you guys (milfs, older girls, non-hotties lol), but I have noticed the absence of girls with personality. I used to have regulars that I would see that were fun, interesting, had a media personality and a personable charm. Maybe it's me and they're still out there, but I don't see it like I used to.
I had a crush on SL for a bit, thinking they attracted interesting girls, but after a string of poor service i have had enough. The 'robots' analogy is a good one.

That is partly the case.
Maybe AI-generated descriptions too?
And the girls are often disinterested, not keen to engage, very scripted, you get the feeling you are just being processed and no investment is being made to make you feel valued, a potential return customer

For me all the agencies have similar photos. It’s almost an identity for them. The bio helps. If you read SL and SC and some of the Asian agencies it’s copy and paste from profile to profile. I’ve found Some of the best profiles have actually been written by the workers themselves.
I also started punting when kissing, Daty , DFK, as examples were included. Extras were items like COF. So it’s shrinkflation happening in a GFE booking. I’m not impressed when they do it to a packet of biscuits. Even less so when it happens in punting.

Gotta agree. Similar position except for the multitude of investment properties. A sw who is not a drop dead stunner but has a personality makes me return. An absolute stunner with the personality below that of a fu.k doll. One and done. And I’ve done too many of those to waste more money. Hence I appreciate punters posting bad reviews.
 
I've got a few favourites who are still in the industry, depending on the ethnicity I'm looking for.
I usually switch and try different people. ( which i've seen before)

To be honest I've been browsing profiles every week lately, but nothing has really caught my eye.
There are also quite a few newcomers now and some only choose to work Monday to Friday between 9 and 5, so timing is a big factor as well.
 
If the hot young girls suck less figuratively, and suck more literally, I don’t think there would be a problem. The guys, like OrgyDomes said, will always find a way to get money for punt. A crack addict will always be able to find money to smoke crack.

I agree with this. Some girls who do a great job, such as Ari, are still getting consistently booked out.

I have less disposable income this year than last year but I am still very happy to do a punt when I know I am definitely going to get a good service. In the current climate I am less inclined to take a risk on the unknown. I assume other punters are in this category too so if a girl builds a reputation for great service she is more likely to get constant work. I am also more inclined to make repeat bookings with a good girl than risk the unknown too.

Bring back the old days when price was 240 for 1 hour and girls would do everything. Without extra charges

Yes I loved Sl exactly for that but but not anymore, they don’t think how hard it is nowadays to spend 300-400$ when economy is shot.
Katie was the only girl who told me that 220$ for 30 mins is a lot of money and I think sex should be great
 
I’ve always been a big rub n tug guy. But sadly that space has transformed.

Thai massage with a happy was my go to. There used to be lots of options around, for 70$ you get your rub, an extra 30-50 would get you a tug, top off, titty pinching and sucking, sometimes bottoms off and a finger in the cunt, even sumata if you were lucky.

Now these money grubbing little Thai sluts with their labubus and iPhones are charging 50hj +50 nude + 50 touching.
And sometimes that won’t even include panties off, sumata or a finger in the cunt. For 240 all up.

I’ve responded to market conditions by changing my habits. These days I am exclusively treasure hunting in the Chinese RnT market. Plenty of aunties, but some gems to be found. @ 1/2 the price!

I don’t understand how prices for Thai sluts have shot up so much given current market conditions. I run my own business, it was a huge party up until 2022. Healthy profits, tons of work, little price sensitivity. The market slowed and I started having to watch my prices and get competitive especially into 2024. Since 2024 is when Thai handy prices really started to climb. It’s a complete inverse to the rest of the economy

I was thinking bring back $180 an hour or $140 at Chinese places. It absolutely blows my mind to think in 2010 at Tawera Road I was only paying $140 an hour to plough some absolutely stunning 20 year old happy Chinese girl. I licked so many lovely girls' anuses at that place.

I stopped going to the Thai massage places for the same reason. They are all gold diggers, only want your money but don't want to provide good service. I also noticed they don't get many bookings. On the other hand, Chinese RnT seem to have much more business. If you look at Fresha, the booking schedules for many Thai massage places are often almost empty. Lol.
 
Bro I was doing 180 for 30 mins but the girls were really beautiful and they wouldn’t charge extra for anything, dfk and other stuff was pretty normal.
I used to go secret companions old times when they only used to book through nz girls and had no website.
Sapphire blue was the where I started paying 200$ but the girl was ohhh.
Back when they started
 
I only book Asian girls so I can't comment on the non-asian market. But the quality and consistency has definitely gone down a bit, and the prices have gone up. Economy is shit too, but luckily it hasn't affected my income too much other than having to prop up one of my properties that went untenanted for a while.

I mostly just stick to regulars now and the agencies near me that are generally good to me (I rotate between DBVIP, Christina's and Vixens) and sift through 108 to see who they're giving good reviews.

I also moved I to a place that is 3 minute walk from vixens and 5 minutes from DBVIP, and I went a bit nuts for a couple months there. Was dropping easily $1000 a week for a couple of months so have slowed down a bit recently. One day I walked into DBVIP for an hour session, and walked straight from there into Vixens and picked a girl from the lineup for another hour lol.

Not really. Tried one and it was average tbh, so don't wanna waste that much money again on a gamble.

I really only fuck Icy from there now since as a regular she takes care of me real good.

I exclusively only fuck Icy at DB as well. People said LanLan is good but I don’t think they’re even in the same league.

Yeah I need to throw some cock into Lanlan at some point for comparisons sake, but it's hard when I get consistently great service from Icy.

The only thing Icy could do better in my books is rimming since she is not great at it.

Well if you read my review for Eva she does a decent job haha.

My absolute recent go to for that was Victoria from Christina's, but she has gone now. She was a great fuck, on par with Icy in my opinion but was great at rimming and would let me rim and finger fuck her arse while I ate her out, fingered or fucked her.

JoJo from there does a good job of it though there too but not as good as Victoria. If you hit Christina's management up for who does a good rimjob they'll steer you straight.
 
I wante to see may a but they would always move towards someone else despite the fact that she has some spots
