tipping

Just wondering. Everyone knows that the girls that work in massage places only get a portion of what you pay as a fee. (What percentage that is- I have no idea...) So I always give a good tip. What about independents that work out of their own home or apartment? They obviously have 0%...

As some of you may have figured out, I am kinda of new to the hobby scene. I have picked up the standard tipping protocol for extras, but what about when you don't get extras? If i have a good (no extra) experience, I typically tip $20 and up. Am I wrong in this, as in killing an unspoken code...

The standard fees at Perla seem to be $150 for a 40-minute session, with $50 of that paying for the room and $100 to the lovely ladies that visit with us. Then upcharge is $50 for BJ or $100 for BJ&FS. At the less formal places, I've seen $40 for 30 minutes, $60 for 45 minutes, and $80 for an...

Sorry if this is a silly question, but I'm a bit new to this. Is it customary to tip the receptionist either when she shows you to the room, or after you leave?

Therre seemed to be a lot of thoughts on tipping and prices, etc. on another thread so I thought I'd divert those thoughts here. I'm no marketing/economics expert but the subject has always fascinated me! It's kind of a "chicken or the egg" question. Is inflation caused by workers asking for...

Sorry if this is a dumb question. I'm new to the Asian massage scene. There is the base or room rate, usually 50/65/80, straightforward. There is the happy extra, which by the sounds of past feedback here ranges from 40 to 60 and beyond for additional services. This has commonly been referred to...

I am somewhat new to this but went once to a MP and I kind of enjoyed it. My question is, for "tipping", does she tell you before hand how much to tip or do you decide at the end how much to tip? How does it work?

do you guys tip on top of the "the tip(s)"? if so, how much?

Being very new to this hobby I am still trying to figure things out. Say there is a 60 minute session with a $80 door fee and $120 service fee... (total $200) How much on top of that should I give as a tip (usually)? Thanks for your help.

There's always the fast houses, if you can find one in manhatten

So, I've been enjoying the hobby for a little while now. My first trip to a MP I was told you get reverse for $x tip and bs for $x tip etc. Since then I had always thought the service fee was a predetermined tip so that's all I've been paying. After reading through some forums here, I'm...

Good Day eforum.xxxites, What is the standard tipping practices, I thought I would post to see what the various comments are for various services / options for indies as well as parlours and what standard entrance fees shold be, essentially whats too much and whats too little or whats...

cant remember who said it.. but it went something like this: when you tip, people tend to give you better service, look out for you, etc. so, unless you're unrolling a wad of 20's or something in front of a ratero..I dont see the big deal. hell, I noticed a major difference in the...

so after the donation, do you guys tip after? to me its customary. I mean i usually 95% of the time give a extra 20 just because... if the service was satisfactory or whatever... but i calculated this, all those extra tips i could have gotten another 3 massages at a amp! and all these times i...

I think the other thread should be closed....so here is a new one. Oceanic, tipping $120 is the minimum....but if you like the service, and you feel confortable tipping more then please do so. The SP make their living off of your tips....we should show our appreciation when ever possible...

i've done a search and read several hot-topic-threads regarding this issue. not wanting to go through the whys and such, i have a question: for those of you who don't accept tips.. i'm starting to feel the need to go from a 'sure you can tip if you want' to a 'no tipping' policy. how do...

My massage therapist' business is having a fund raising event. For 15 dollars we can get a 15 minute massage. The money raised goes to charity. How do I tip the massage therapist and would this be an appropriate situation to tip? This therapist owns the business and I typically don't tip for...

I work at a small spa offering body wraps (40 minutes) and anti cellulite treatments (those last up to an hour and are quite labor intensive on my part). The rates are about ninety dollars for a service. I see that most of our clientele leaves without tipping at all. Even when they come in as a...

I went to a new establishment yesterday to get a massage. On my way across the parking lot I heard two women having a discussion. Appearantly one of them was upset over the "envelopes" in her treatment room. She said she left a note on it instead because it made her feel pressured. I found out...
