Re: Session rates are getting out of hand
IMO COVID price increases would be a separate topic, I'm not sure how many data points there would be. There was some discussion about it in the twitter thread. Two girls did say they were raising prices. One didn't have a single session since this started, and the other was cancelling parts of her tour because the guys suck (not my words), I mean she wasn't getting bookings.

Not just 'Dont have a session at all' as you put it. Why would we ignore all the other wrestlers? |

If somebody asks more than you are willing to pay, why not session with somebody else ? In case she does not get enough business anymore, may be she will lower prices again. If not, itīs still your choice if you want to pay it or not. |

Re: Session rates are getting out of hand
I continue to be intrigued by this thread, and do indeed see some recent and sometimes notable creeping of rates out there in the UK.
I'm completely fine with the 'provider can ask what they like, and people either pay or they dont" The covid supply/demand equation is funny.. Yes, less girls offering in person sessions, but i would have also thought many clients (particular older) would have stopped completely to, as really it is they who are at risk 1000x more than a 20-35yo female.. so in many economic modrls this would maintain balance in pricing. What we see though is a thinner market of both supply and demand, and prices actually picking up a bit to make up for less volume of activity. I'm already doing less sessions than a few years ago, and not really too bothered. In terms of behavior i will definitely stick more to girls i already know, trust and like, and be less likely to try someone new or different. TBH most of my current pool of favourites also happen to be ones who havent changed prices. If the hurdle to experiment or take a punt on someone new is higher, i'm much less likely to go out on a limb and do so. I wont be spending any more per year on sessions, so even if prices do go up more, i will just do less sessions.. Most likely i would spend a bit less in total per year as each time i commit to arranging a session my financial brain will go 'is this really worth it, or should i direct this money to something else? If the unit price per session is higher, then 'something else' will win more & more often as each time i make that assessment. Added after 48 minutes: Quote:
My immediate thought was just, 'Why wouldnt you just book someone else whose price you were happy with, rather than not have a session' Last edited by blockernz; 17-Oct-20 at 09:27. |

Don't like the price, look elsewhere, as you say. Inferno does brilliant sessions, mind �� Quote:

Re: Session rates are getting out of hand

Lives quite a way out of London.. probably 2 hour each way trip to studio. So shes got 4hrs travel, 1 hr session + say 30mins turnaround time in/out at studio = 5.5hrs, plus cost of train tickets and tube. So really its a half day effort & travel costs for a one hour session and shes pricing to reflect this. She might lose a few potential clients at higher rate, but shes probably happy to do so. Potentially she can just do 2x hours of online/skype work at a lower rate and make more without leaving home. The other highest rate girl on the Sub room site also lives far out of London & even specifies 'this is the rate unless more than one session in a day' I'm actually having ta similar now i am working from home than in the city.. When in central london already, it was a quick 30min hop to session after work, but now its quite a bit longer round trip starting from home. So part of the reason i'm doing less sessions these days is its more hassle to go to do them |

Very good post and I agree. I live miles from London and Manchester so have to travel a good 2/3 hours on the train when I session - it's why I tend to book multiple sessions when I do go! Quote:
NOBODY said they wanted fees going up. The ones with brains said they understood why. It's simple supply and demand. Quit crying about it. If you can't afford it, or you don't want to pay it, then nobody is making you pay for it. Get over yourself, because no wrestler is going to change the rates just because you and the minority are crying about it. Now shut up. Last edited by Subboy2; 17-Oct-20 at 12:32. |

Nobody wants the fees to go up, but we have to live in reality. Feel free to suggest any solutions (if you have) instead of just complaining and crying. |
