Not knocking you KWG and stay safe in Ilak! 55555 You say 'Nice looking girl' etc and I knew it wouldn't be long before someone said that. Again, not knocking you for that. We have this invisible sliding scale of beauty creeping in again. I thought my wife was ugly but the bloke who ran off with her obviously didn't! The B'stard.
If a girl, who in your opinion is a 'stunner' (One mans beauty is another mans......etc Whatever) and she asks a potential customer for 2/3/4 or even 5K (Jeeez) for an over-nighter (or even one hour) and gets it, then job done! She's happy and I am guessing (Not all so-called stunners are the best in bed IMHO) you, the customer are too! If this thread runs, there will be many others who will say "Yeah but..........This one was a stunner!" Good for them! It's not normally too long that when walking back to your hotel with a 'stunner' that you see an even 'stunnier' stunner on another mans arm and he's going to be giving her 1K!
I am only a couple of years older than you and Peesua (Butterfly, i.e. no steady GF out here) and I pay 1K plus a little more as and when I feel the 'urge' If, I feel that maybe, after a fun time (The leather flying helmet and the two sticks of celery kind of fun time) and she deserves a little more, I will give her a couple of hundred more. BF's I pay, again, if they are not asking for silly money. (Don't forget the girl gets (or should) half of that, which is good, but I am not prepared to pay the bar owners rent because he got a crap deal on the bar and pushes his prices up) Plus.......I am velly hansuuum maaaaan so maybe get a discount here and there! 55555
I am guessing and others can put me right, that 90% of the BF prices in Patong are still 300 Baht give or take 100 Baht. It's very rare I see the same girl twice and I am not sure I have been with an ugly bird yet! Shut up Duncan. Yes, I live here now, but you don't get a discount for that with a girl who has never seen you before! Come on holiday and tell them you live here and see how much she knocks you down too!
The forum is here to give advice to people visiting Phuket, if they chose to read that advice and note that 1K +/- with a 300 Baht +/- BF is the norm or the average and when 'asked' for 5K for a ST and the 'little head' caves into that! Then what more can I say! Put your hand in your pocket and pay her or move on to the next 'stunnier' stunner.
Again, up to you, your holiday, your money, your stunner, your memories.
Just my 2 Satangs worth...........or is that now 4 Satangs worth? 5555555
Run low, stay safe out there, this isn't aimed (No pun intended) at you KWG, just my observations for everyone. Regards to Chalabi BTW! 55555
