I think the RLD is in a period of transition where the "standard €50 session" is becoming less and less common, and there are more girls still quoting €50 but charging extra for all kinds of things, as if €50 just gets you in the room.
"€50 for CBJ, or €100 for blowjob and sex" seems to be more and more common at the door, and may be the next standard price point. In my opinion the girls can charge what they like for a session if they think they're hot enough to justify it, but there should be some basic agreed standards of what's included in a session and what's extra. In some ways I prefer to have a hot girl almost to myself because she charges €100 and has fewer customers, compared to a popular €50 girl where you can never find her free without continually patrolling the RLD. The problem is that the extras which shouldn't be extras can become an issue when you aren't expecting them, e.g when you've just paid your €100 and expect a decent session for it, no messing.
I try any new girl who visually appeals to me, I am very fixated on a specific kind of look and this is much more important to me than the quality of the actual session or the sex. Sticking to €50 sessions with known good providers doesn't interest me - unless they are my specific 'type' I don't usually get very aroused. I find that total rip-offs (where you don't get any kind of sex at all) are very uncommon, but some girls will lure you into a kamer having agreed to something basic like €50, naked, touching with a "yes baby" at the door, only to then present their own completely different scheme of prices once you are naked on the bed. In some cases they may be confident of giving you a great time, they are not actually intending to completely swindle you, they intend for you to leave with a very large smile on your face after some genuinely good sex, having gladly paid them a lot more than you originally intended. It wouldn't be so bad if you were walking around with pockets bulging with easy-come-easy-go €50 notes from your amazingly easy well-paid job - these girls may be worth the money in some cases but I think they sometimes assume that everyone who comes to them is rich and can afford to put up with their antics.
One of the red flags I put on there myself was for
Angel, Stoofsteeg 10-L, days (N.B this girl's kamer is now displaying a "for rent" sign so I'm not sure if she is actually still working in the RLD). She pulled the stunt of agreeing to €50 for a naked s&f at the door on my first visit and then un-agreeing at the start of the session. It wasn't the case that she was trying to get out of having sex, she just had some very fixed ideas about what she wanted to charge, and wanted to get me in the kamer where she could demonstrate her charms. She was actually fucking great in bed; in terms of value I got a lot of pleasure out of a few expensive sessions with her and I'm not likely to forget them in a hurry even if she doesn't re-appear. Which then puts you in the weird position of recommending girls you have yourself warned people about.....
I don't always agree with Bluto's hard-line stance on €50 sessions, I think a girl can charge what she wants as long as she's honest about it at the door, but I agree it makes no sense to pay as "extras" things that should be included in a standard session, whatever the price of that session is. It does mean I occasionally end up in a €100 session where the girl still has her top on, but I'm not going to pay extra to have it removed, I'll show no interest in it then maybe casually ask her to remove it a couple of sessions later when she's decided I'm a worthwhile repeat customer.
Rosie was like this, she would give a short teaser session for €50 and you would be better off with €100 where she would suddenly act like a teenage porn star and greet you like a long-lost lover, albeit with her top on for the first few sessions. She told me she wanted to hold something back to keep people interested in her and get repeat custom, so the top-on business was almost more of an insecurity than a rip-off, she didn't actually attempt to charge extra for it. It seemed a little bit sad to me because she obviously didn't realize just how lovely she was! Of course they would want to come back! But then it's obviously difficult to seriously recommend a girl who is likely to keep her top on for your first few €100 sessions with her.......even though she's gorgeous, really nice and fucks like a teenage porn star.
Some girls just have completely bizarre pricing methods which are totally different to the norm. One of my "favourite rip-offs" (too pricey to be a regular girl, but nice for a "one-off" bucket list session) was
Naughty Alex who is still working nights at OzA 117-M (seems to work at the weekends more than early in the week). A very slim temptress who would always have me staring at her perfect ass as I came off the Stoofbrug, she would slyly agree to €50 but then you would find she charged €50 for nudity with touching, €50 for sex, €50 for blowjob, all separate so that you would need to pay €150 for a naked suck and fuck with touching. I stuck to my guns on my first visit, didn't pay more than €50, and ended up being teased by her as she jerked me off while still dressed in her cute little outfit, peeking up her tiny skirt at her panties while she described what I could do to her for more money.... I don't know why but that session was one of the most erotic things I have ever experienced.... maybe just
that girl in
that outfit. In the end I came back to her the next year, obsessed with the memory of that session, and went for the whole €150 experience, paying in stages to extend the session as I went along. In the end it actually worked out OK because she seemed happy to extend the session allowing everything I had already paid for, so I got a reasonably long session that would have probably cost me €100 at "normal" prices. So that was €50 extra for sheer hotness value and a full exploration of what was under her kinky outfit...
Another awkward girl is
Michelle at Oude Kennisteeg 7, dayshift, but she's insanely beautiful with a gorgeous slim figure. Quite restrictive even at €100 (she told me I couldn't cum while I was inside her!), not 100% rip-off, very softly spoken and rather quiet, but somehow makes it very difficult to get a good session. I think I have to imagine my sessions with her as if I was paying for a private room with an extremely beautiful pole-dancer (actually she would probably look great pole dancing), its all about looking and touching (although no pussy touching....). My most erotic session with this girl involved simply touching her bum and jerking off for €50 while she stood in front of me.... simple but very effective in terms of getting aroused by her.
My latest "difficult" acquisition is a petite Spanish brunette at Stoofsteeg 10-M, nights, also by the name of Michelle. Absolutely awesome mean-girl attitude, can be extremely rude at the door, but wow she floats my boat! Quotes €100 for suck and fuck and does stick to it, but then tries to charge extra for everything under the sun, and sticks rigidly to a time limit which feels more like 10 minutes than 15. Has a way of emptying your wallet because you can't resist extending the oh-so-short session. I visited her twice and the second time she just sat right down on my cock in cowgirl position, looked at me with a really dirty expression and told me to fuck her. She looked so good it was unreal..... and she has a fantastic ass. Absolutely atrocious upseller, but again, I'm not going to forget a session like that, ever, even if she kept her sodding top on throughout!
At some point I think I have to admit to myself that I find these beautiful girls with their bad-girl attitudes very enticing, and they can be a lot of fun. I like a mix of bad girls and nice girls, it's lovely to go to a wonderful girl like Elena for a good honest €50 session in the afternoon, and then just pick some really mean, incredibly hot girl to taunt me in the evening, breaking down my resistance and then giving me the kind of fuck i really want....
My main problem with "rip-off" situations is where the girl is just taking advantage of something I didn't explicitly agree at the door, so I'm trying to be more detailed about what I want during negotiations. I do try and avoid paying more than I've agreed, and I don't usually respond to upselling unless its something interesting (e.g you can cum on my tits for an extra €50) but even when all this is agreed, the girl is watching the clock and can time things so that you end up needing to extend with an extra €50 to finish the session. If they keep me amused and aroused I might extend, otherwise I prefer to save my spunk and cut my losses. And even with the most careful negotiation the girl can always simply remember the negotiations differently......... so I don't take it all too seriously. I want to be entertained.
So, yes in some ways things are quite bad, but you just have to turn it all into a bit of a game, trying to play your cards sensibly but not getting too upset when the girl wins! Like I say, these bad girls can be a lot of fun if you give them a chance, its different to the situation where the whole session feels "off" and you just want to forget it and get the hell out. Maybe one sign to look for is the way that the girl listens to you at the door. Is it all, "yes, yes, come in baby, €50", or is she actually listening carefully to your list of demands as though she's ready to stop you when she disagrees? Or some girls respond confidently "of course!" when you ask if they will be naked and let you touch them, because they are professional and it doesn't occur to them that you could do business as a prostitute without allowing something pretty fundamental to the whole experience!
I usually pick my girl depending on what kind of session I want - maybe someone nice who will give me a good time with a nice chat and a gentle fuck, or someone like Rosie who will really fuck me good when I'm horny. If I'm just feeling curious that's a good time to try a new girl, when I won't be so bothered if I end the session without a proper fuck. And sometimes I think I would actually prefer just to have a lapdance, so I went to La Vie En Proost during my trip last week and rather enjoyed myself! I think mongering is still fun, I just treat unknown girls as a bit of unproven entertainment until I know them better. Some of them are so hot, just getting a good look at them is worth paying for.....so look out for these girls when you are prowling the RLD, but don't blame me when you get caught in their nets....
