How much for a Ladyboy in Asia?

The rule I tend to apply on cash expenditure while in Thailand is to spend no more than I have been earning (less overheads) in a similar period of time back in Farangland in the months leading up. Also, a night or two home alone recharging the liver and libido helps to bring down that average spend to a level I'm comfortable with.
But in essense, unless my earnings have put me in a position to fly out biz class, live in a reasonable standard of accomodation while having at least 200,000 Baht per month in my bin then I don't bother going.......I'm sure I wouldn't enjoy it, I'd be thinking too much about previous trips

Be honest, it's all the "look at my wad" and ladydrinks
is that what I have been doing wrong all these years
I thought you bought the LB a drink before you dumped your wad on her tits
sorry DC could't resist

Must agree with Dixon here - we all have our own budget and our own expectations.
I have seen many a LB quote varying rates. She is out to get the best deal as is the customer. I always urge people to agree rates in ADVANCE.
I observed one LB quote 5000 and 1000 in the same bar the same night!
One guy was overweight and a bit drunk.
The other guy was younger and good fun.
You figure who was quoted what?
I have my budget, as do all of us, but when the quote is high just reconsider! Big Ocean and many Fish....
I read a trip report where a guy paid what he thought was fair. She was not happy. Moral of the story - agree up front. You can always tip over the rate. I know a few guys who make it clear - 'This is what we agreed and this is a tip from me'. Just so she knows the going rate.
More experienced guys will disagree but they do have the experience!
If an LB over states her expectation just move on - she may even return and renegotiate!
I took a group of 'elderly' mongers out - one guy kept shoving 300 baht to every girl that he met! Took me a long time to explain he was doing no one any favors.
I have to agree rossco
you need to set the price before agreeing to go to room
my last trip a few LB when asked the price for ST or LT said "up to you"
assuming 1500-2000 being ok for the night, I was left with a very angry LB in the morning when I gave her the cash and she was expected more.
nothing worst then having a hangover and an irate LB screaming at you
do all the negotiating in the bar

I probably tend to be a bit more down to business in Nana or Soi Croc though...

I am not advocating a prolonged negotiation with a lawyer present!
I just always advise that you agree the fee up front to avoid unpleasantness later. There are a few 'operators' around who coyly say 'up to you' and then demand an unreasonable reward after the deed is done.
As I said before - the more experienced monger may feel comfortable but for those less experienced I would always check the expectation first.
It is only my advice and many people may chose to ignore it. Up to them!
This is not restricted to the fee but also the participation - in the last couple of weeks a number of guys have been a bit irritated to find their companion just wanted to sleep....

The same thing applies in Singapore and Malaysia.
It's all very well to know the price but you should never jump to conclusions. The lb may feel she gave her best shot and deserves more than the usual.
I've seen and heard enough of arguments about price after the act and some have got pretty violent.
I'm not saying you bargain where price goes back and forth many times like some would haggle at a market. All I'm saying is - ask the price - if it's outrageous then don't accept and at the most try a step down and end it there.
