I'm sure there are already many threads on this issue, but not coming up with much on searches. If someone could direct me to some threads with this info I would greatly appreciate it.
Basically what I am looking for is info on what to expect as far as services and session length for my $$. I'm sure there are many factors involved and vary greatly so any general info would help.
Also if anyone can point me to a thread on negotiating tactics and protocol that would be cool too.
Thanks in advance and I hope to get the chance to repay the help with some recon info when I return! And Yes, I do plan to purchase a memership here pretty soon.

Its a vertical learning curve, 8ball. When you first hit the ground you will spend more money for less satisfaction. As you learn the game you will get more of what you want for less money (if you are willing to learn and not turned off by the game).

Of course, there is a fine line between getting the most tail for the least money and being known as a cheapskate. Too much barter and your rep takes a hit. You want happy girls who like it when you show them attention. I've seen girls disappear when certain mongers show up just because they don't want to be low-balled, especially when said monger brags about how little he paid.

The MPs are a good option if you hate the independent game and are looking for more structure and less of a crap shoot.

Too many variables to really narrow down a time and price...

Things to keep in mind... Just about everything is negotiable. But like another poster already said, you don't want to be cheap. There really aren't universal "negotiating tactics". Everybody kinda creates their own method by trial and error. The more you practice, the better you'll be and you'll see what works for you and what doesn't.
