Yeah, I notice this a lot on PA threads, and higher mileage clients sort of act like they were duped into going there. Like you said, spas are not good value proposition for anyone that is displeased with basic services. PA (and their sister spas), Seduction/Elevate, and Blondie Spa, are the only places that offer basic HH’s at 140 nowadays. Everywhere else that is non-holistic, is $10-$20 higher than that.
There are still escorts that charge $150hh/250h, or somewhere around this, but acting like there’s an endless supply of good ones at these rates, is disingenuous. I think it was in this thread, or another one complaining about PA costs, where someone was saying that they were getting pretty extreme PSE services, including greek (everything aside from BBFS) from a hottie in Durham, that was charging peanuts more than what they would pay at PA, and I find this very hard to believe. At best, maybe 1 or 2 girls. But this is definitely not the norm, and girls offering that at those rates, would be busy and up them in no time. Or, they burnout in a few months and vanish.
