That is true, but even before this economic crisis got so bad, most guys are still preaching against cien... Now I'm not disagreeing with this. I just wonder if it is like the guy with his finger in the dyke... Another question: I have no doubt that a lot of savvy (sp) guys can work that deal, but do you think the average guy coming in to play does? Or is it something that is gotten by guys that are on the scene all the time and have the time and patience to stay their price?

My take, and I am not trying to corner the market, somebody else chime in!

I think there are at least three monger things that determine her willingness to negocio, discounting her issues:

- Overall appearance: Would she rather give a discount to a guy who is slovenly and overweight or someone who is well groomed and height/weight proportional? Dirty fingernails, dirty teeth and offensive odors are all major turnoffs.

- Attitude: Is the monger a sad-sack, telling the girls why they won't like him and how everybody thinks he is boring? Is he miserable or in party mode? makes a difference.

- Experience: It is very easy to spot someone who just hit the ground. If she marks you for a newbie it will be difficult to get her to act right and negocio. Why should she when the last newbie she propositioned paid $200 without batting an eye?

Just my take.

Thirdworld:

Good post and good points. It is alot like a person trying to put their finger in the dyke. This thread should be read in conjunction with many other threads on this site. Recently there was a thread in regards to what % of guys in the HDR are CRT guys. I would guess less than 20% on a weekend night. Having said that than it is logical to asume that we (CRT Guys) don't really dictate the price. Therefore the $100 that the better looking girls are asking for is getting paid to them. Because there regular rate is $100 than that is the going rate for a nice looking lady in the HDR in the evening. Daytime Chicas are $20-$40 less.

With respect to the "No Cien" crowd to each his own. I dont care what you pay and I realize you can hold out for a lesser fee if you really want to. If $$ is the most important thing than so be it. To me the experience is the most important thing. If I see something I really like, and we click a little during the interview process , then $100 is not a problem. I didn't travel from South Fla to save $20 per session on something that really appeals to me.

Part of any sucessful HDR style negotiation is to make the other side feel like they are getting what they want. The same as it is in a business or other type negotiation, For example the last two times I paid a cien , during the interview/negotiation process, it became very apparent that the girls had their heart and minds set on a $100. Both of them told me it wouldnt be a rush session, that they would take their time and I would get a BBBJ and a massage after I finished. Both were hot looking ladies to me. Maybe I could have got either one of them down to $80.00. But for $20 more I had a very happy camper in my room. The sessions were great which is what was important to me. They got the cien which what was important to them.

Just last Saturday, Valentines night, I was laying around with my fav, who some of you have meet at the HDR or a CRT function, in my room at the Prez. She gets a call from her hot looking Colombian amiga and I suggest that she come on over from the HDR for a party. My fav was absolutely adamant that I per her the cien. Would not negotiate for a second. Either I pay it or I dont. I paid. (BTW if your fav is checked in a as regular guest then you can usually get another one in the room if you bring them up seperately)

There is a ceretain amount to talk on this thread about the economy and what the prevailing wages for regular jobs in CR. This has little or no effect on what a regular dude will pay in the HDR. Keeping in mind that the regular or average HDR dude does not read this board, is there for a few days only, and if see's something he likes he is paying the $100. Particularly the dudes who have been married and out of the game for many years.

Finally with respect to the last several ticas of the week, who really hit the spot for me, I ain't arguing over $20 bucks.

I believe this clears it up for a lot of readers...well said.

Look, those of us who live here or frequent for long periods of time...have time to putz around and look for bargains and better deals...not only money deals but girl deals as well..(PS. Pamela isn't the only nymphomanic on the scene by any stretch of the imagination) and even go without some pu*sy for a day.

on the other hand...those of you who are here for a short time , a week or so probably don't want to miss a beat...and who can blame you? particularly since the few members of this board only represent a very small percentage of the demand side.

I must admit, when traveling to the DR or Columbia for a few short days, I could give a flying Phuck what the local guys think I should pay. If it works for me then I pay it....by the time I get home the thoughts of what I paid are long forgotten...

At this stage (for you older guys) it's just not worth the effort to get too upset about anything

Pura Vida

I agree Livincr, and maybe this is the attitude that would make the board a bit more friendly. We all have our different purposes and circumstances and probably no 2 mongers are exactly alike.....

Maybe just maybe (and I'm surely not mocking Brother Thirdworld in this), the Chicas were over-pricing themselves before and now at Cien or close, they're at a realistic price. You can through CL get an hour's time with a reasonable (Gringa but reasonable) woman in the Philly area for circa $200 and there's been some softening of that price (no pun intended). A poosie price war, you might call it.

You have truly not seen anything if you think these CR chicas are gold diggers.The chicas of Zona Norte (Tijuana) or the ladies of Pattaya could run ciircles around them.The biggest Colombiana con artist is merely a rank amateur in comparison.

Brother Thirdworld--I tried to put my finger in the dyke once---damn, did she pitch a fit! And her girlfriend wasn't too happy either. Just playin', Brother.

That brought me a good laugh to start the day... Good one Jazzbo....

The last two Ticas of the week have been pretty amazing looking. This last one with short hair and big tits is near perfect.

$100 would be acceptable if she gave real GFE(BBBJ, DFK, DATY) and stayed for 3 hours allowing multiple pops.

The problem is that we should not be paying these girls in US dollars. Its Costa Rica, everything should be in Colones, in case the dollar gets strong again.

Think of it this way. The hot Colombian girls were getting 1,830 Colombian pesos to 1US around a year ago. Now they are getting 2,570 to 1. They are getting a huge windfall by using dollars.

If these girls want to charge in US dollars, then they should try selling their ass in the USA.

It seems to me that negotiating in colones is simple enough. When she quotes her opening bid in dollars, respond with your counter in colones. Just don't fall into the "I paid her $60...yeah, $60,000c" trap.

Say she started at $100 and you countered with $30,000c and you agreed on $40,000c. In today's dollars, that equals $71.58. Very doable.

When the colon was 500 to the dollar the girls asked for $100.00 or 50,000 colones. Now the exchange is 560 to the dollar so they ask for $100.00 or 56,000 colones.




Most will accept either dollars or colones. They are very aware of the current exchange rate and adjust accordingly.

ID, that has not been my experience. Granted, I never spend a lot of time on the actual dollars/colones negotiations. In my experience, as soon as I counter in colones we stay in colones and in denominations of ten, $30,000c, $40,000c, etc.. Since we are already talking colones there is no reason to convert currencies.

If she seems more like an economics major than a tryst partner then I probably wouldn't be with her long enough to get to the money part, anyway.

Amigo, never slam he door on someone because they have some modicum of intellect. They can be a totally different animal in the cama.

Very true, ID, and it was not the intellect I was objecting to. I want a girl who would rather party than work. If money is her only motivation then she is not the girl for me.
