Here's a great tip for ya!

[Not I]

Sorry to sucker you guys in, but I'm starting to wonder if some of you guys are tipping the girls. Does anyone NOT tip $20 for a basic release??

 

[mrggame]

I pay what's standard and sometimes tip an extra $20 if I get great service and I know I'll repeat

 

[KuroKitty]

Not that I'm cheap or anything, but I don't normally tip at all. I am more a get to know you kind of tipper. Then i'll do something special for you.

 

[Mrs. Owl {Rachel Marie}]

seriously, would you tip if the MPA performs half-heartedly?

 

[Another Massage Therapist]

not at all... i've walked out of hooters without tipping!

 

[Zachariah]

I always tip based on attitude.
If the girl puts in a real effort to please me, even if she has a limited skill set, I will give her a tip.

 

[Cameron]

HG Hunter, well said. It's all about the attitude they present to you.

 

[jd spoonworthy]

I pay normally $20 as tip if like session.

 

[postal p]

Tipping is a must for a norm -to- high standard session. If the session is not good , no tip just basic pay.

 

[Christie]

If i pay for 30 minutes and get 20, or if I pay for an hour & get 45 minutes, I do not tip.

I usually tell the girl take the tip from the time left in my session. I've only had to do this a few times.

 

[massage2218]

Huh.

I tip regardless. I'm always afraid that the girl jerked my off for 50% of the door fee and that her self-esteem could use a $20. ?



Too nice for this hobby?

 

[Molly Smith]

Wow. I cant believe i just read all of those replies. If an MPA has a session with you and you did not tip....she just worked for free. and to some of you (please, not all) did you ever think that maybe because you WERE NOT TIPPING WELL that it was a crap session??? and by not tipping well i mean;tipping something and expecting everything. if you ask for a service and know the price and it was done...well or not.....TIP HER! and dont pick her again. write a bad review or something. we are not a restaurant. 20$ for a release?? WTF!! who is even doing a release for 20$$ ??? is there a mp at a sally ann i dont know about? (IMHO).

It seems you may have misinterpreted what you read. Some places have set prices for nude, nude reverse, body slide. The tip I mentioned is over and above the set price. At places where there is no set price, sometimes a price is agreed upon between the MPA and the client. Again, the tip is on top of that. At places where there is no price list and no prices are discussed, then the amount I pay is based on the going rate in the industry and maybe a tip for a great attitude.

I hope that clears things up.

 

[Tripy]

let me explain this to you clearly. this is the usual set up. door fee + topless/nude/nude rev/ body slide fee + tip + possible repeat. ( if the session is top notch )
door fee + topless/nude/nude rev/ body slide fee with no possible repeat ( if it's bad ) i rarely write bad reviews because i live by the YMMV code of silence.

 

[PRETTY GREEN EYES]

well GEEZE!!! that sounds a little better!! lol (although there really ARE clients who think that door fee+20$ is sufficient. ) but your saying you pay the door fee+set tip+20$$ ? if its good? How sweet... that doesnt look like what (some) of the replies implied....

 

[BMT]

when the challenge came up, I reread my initial post and thought it could do with some further explanation. I can't speak for the other posters.
And I've also added more than 20 on quite a few occasions.
As a matter of fact, just last week one young lady insisted taht I had given her too much and gave me back some money. This has happened to me before, but not very often. Let me tell you, that move by her goes a long way when my repeat decisions are being made.

 

[tigerjayne]

well on the first visit it's usually door fee + session fee for me. if it's good i don't really give a tip but a repeat with her is in the works before i even step out of the place. Then on my 2nd visit it's door fee + session fee + tip. and i give it all together so she knows the deal and most of the time this works good for me.

 

[cajuncutie]

See what confusion can come from that word 'tip' being stretched to cover too much? I think it's best to stick to 'real world' usage: A tip is your purely voluntary reward for service you were happy with. If some amount was set by discussion with the provider that is a fee, a price, an upgrade amount, an extras charge….

In MPs, where such transactions are for legal services, there's no need for the euphemisms like, 'roses', 'donation' and confusing use of 'tip'.

Unless you really are bringing flowers. Or saying 'thanks for being special' with cash.

What does this works good for me mean?

I am curious because my experience is when I go to new place, the first visit they always always want to overcharge me on standard menu options.
If I were to play it nice and tip on top of the overcharge I am Santa Claus. On repeat visits they have you over a barrel if you started overpaying on the first visit.

My best approach so far has been to pay min. door and take no extras basic service. Decline their 1st menu offer pricings, and let them start the session.
Then once they realize the session has started, they usually ask what I am interested in, and I have to pitch the standard menu & prices back to them and so we can agree on an extra.
This is such BS, but that's how the dance works. This starts you off at the right price point, so that tips will can be earned and not standard expectation.

Personally I found tipping in advance is not a smart move. Most MPAs that ask for the money upfront, service is poorer. Probably because of either two reasons, i) they enjoy the cash more than the service, or ii) they don't trust you. If its a matter of trust that you can fix, but if they are cash centric that means they will never be your best session. So tip after you have the great performance. If you do it the other way, you may be dissapointed.

JMHO

like i said lou, i don't tip on the first visit. i usually asked the MPA which session would she recommend, the same time i'm playing dumb or newb. she'd of course suggest the high fee (bodyslide) then again, (playing newb) would ask, are you sure i'd enjoy this?blah blah blah.
