Yes, always pay after. I have only had 1 good experience (over 4 visits to CR and paying first 5 times) when I paid first. The chica's incentive goes away the moment the dinero is in hand, and the power balance shifts.

We must remember that negotiation is a balance of power/energy. When we feel the energy is working against us, we cannot be timid about walking away from the situation with minimal damage done. There will always be another girl around the corner hotter than the last one. Pura Vida!

I think this is the only part that I don't quite understand correctly. The girl will want cien and if I like her I'll pay them, and I assume cien is $100 dollars, not colones. So what if I only have colones? Pull out my phone and do the exchange rate and give her that? 100 colones is like $190 bucks so no way I'm paying that much.


Actually 100 colones is like 20 cents, I'd do a fat ugly one for that... :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
