$400...WOW!

[+ BenjaminNicholas]

Is this another one of those 'what the market will bear' type of things?

 

 

$400? Wowzer... Hope this guy has a dayjob

You gotta wonder what the weekend fee is!!!!!

[Guest cavalier]

Of course, you would NEVER ever charge what the market will bear, would you?

 

Let's see - Your May 24th and June 24th reviews state your rates are $1,000 for an overnight and $2,000 for a weekend. Not a bad take for a Chicago boy trapped in San Antonio. Then, your gushing July 24th reviewer states your overnight rate has jumped to $2,500.

 

Guess Aus Tex should have checked out the other reviews before shelling out that kind of dough. Caveat emptor.

[Guest Gringo]

Let's see, at $400 per hour....that would equal about 27 encounters with an equally handsome brasilian of the highest quality. Obviously there is no limit to the ego of this rent-a-dick.

[EXPAT]

I've hired him before and he certainly didn't charge me $400. As I recall I paid $200, but he was also selling personally made copies of his porn at the time too for another $35. And yes, I bought it. He was OK, but there is much better for the money out there, believe me.

[Guest ncm2169]

Ten inches. Wow. Right.x(

[OneFinger]

>Ten inches. Wow. Right.x(

 

Perhaps he has decided to charge by the inch!! Wonder if he has a cheaper rate for those of us that handle the full 10 inches? :+

Actually spoke with Lucas and Hunt here at their leather mart booth. Hunt was definitely the more amiable guy. Too bad Hunt retired from the biz.

Someone's done their homework... Kind of~

 

Either you're familiar with myself, my website or (doubtfully) you're someone i've met with. The real matter here is:

 

A) Your credibility with only 3 posts

 

B) Your inability to email me for rates before jumping to conclusions

 

C) I can't think of a C, but three choices are usually standard

 

If you want the real info, you can email me at the address below, but don't spout typos without checking it out & backing it up first.

 

Also keep this in mind: Over the past year, i've NEVER gone onto this MC under a different screename. What you see is what you get. I find it pretty sad that someone takes the time to create another whole personality just to browbeat guys who try to add something positive to this MC.

 

You want to jerk my chain because i'm acting like an asshole... Go ahead if it's rightfully deserved. Otherwise, go pick on someone else you chickenshit.

 

 

Warmest Regards,

Benj, As I told STJ,a few days ago, don't let the bastard's grind ya down--particularly one that is so chicken shit that he hides behind a pseudonym to protect an anonymous screen name LOL--a real piece of work. :7

 

Keep on bringing cheer and reason to the unreasonable -- and best to ignore jerks like this.:*

[Guest DickHo]

Benjamin,

 

I'm honestly curious...is your overnight rate really $2,500?

 

DickHo

[+ BenjaminNicholas]

No... Those over-inflated prices misquoted are not my rates~

 

Thanks DickHo for taking the time to ask before going into slaughter, as doing ones homework inevitably leads success more often than failure. If you have any further questions, feel free to email to set things straight (as it were).

 

Flower: Thanks for the warm words dude Much appreciated. Maybe you're not such a stinker afterall

Hey Benjamin..

 

You go, boy! Don't let those MC jerks get you down and try to damage your credibility.

 

On the other hand, I would like to know how someone who purports to have seen you a number of times would somehow get the impression that you charge $2500 for an overnight, if you indeed you don't. I'm stumped as to what he could have been thinking---what his motivation could have been?

 

Well, I certainly hope that the rest of his review isn't as "over-inflated" as the pricing schedule would appear---by your own admission---to be.

 

That would certainly be a shame.

 

These typos... you'd think someone would double-check their submission before sending it. And of course, you'd think an escort would be more than willing to clear up any inaccuracies that might appear, whether it's to clear up something that's their fault, or not.

 

Consistency is key.

 

Roger

[Pierce_NYC]

Rog, Right now your sounding like the "message center jerk". Benjamin put it very nicely that if you need any information on his rates just "e-mail him". He also stated that the fee was a misprint. Why do you feel it necessary to use the MC to belabor your point? I doubt very much if you have any intentions of doing an overnight with him.:-(

[Guest ncm2169]

And, at the other "end" of the spectrum }( :

 

< I don't charge to play!

 

If you like how things go... let me know! I'm not available real often but I love to play and please. As long as you are clean and discreet... >

Intentions-Schmentions~

 

It was obviously a simple slip when filling out a review, which can admittedly happen to the best of us. Perfection is oh-so tough to achieve these days...

 

What this ultimately turned into was a siesmic brew-ha-ha that should have been left as is: A simple slip of the keys.

 

What's most peculiar about this whole thread is that well-spoken & familiar writing styles are showing up under new posters with very few total postings... As i've said before, whether it's support or a bashing, it would be nice to hear from the ORIGINAL poster

>Benj, As I told STJ,a few days ago,

>don't let the bastard's grind ya down--

 

Oh, wow - look at what we have here - Flower putting on his apron to crawl over to the feet of an escort who has a disagreement with someone else in order to protect the escort and tell the escort how right and wonderful and great he is.. What a shock. That only happens 8 or 9 times a day, so I can't believe my luck in running into it.

 

>is so chicken shit that he hides behind a pseudonym to protect

>an anonymous screen name LOL--a real piece of work.

 

Are you under the impression that you are not here under "an anonymous screen name"? If you think cowardice is measured by anonymity, why not give your full REAL name, "Flower"?

 

>Keep on bringing cheer and reason to the unreasonable -- and

>best to ignore jerks like this.:*

 

This "Flower" thing actually thinks that anyone who objects to any statements or conduct by an escort is, for that reason and that reason alone, a "jerk."

 

Don't you see that no matter what the issue, no matter what the critique, you always crawl over to the escort, tongue hanging out and panting, and tell the escort how right they are and what a "jerk" the other person is (the one who doesn't think that every escort walks on water all of the time).

 

Are you really so desperate for cock in your hole - so needing to be loved by a guy who isn't ugly - that you are willing to check your "brain" and intellectual integrity by protecting and defending any escort from even the mildest, most reasonable criticism?

 

Maybe jerking off more would help.

[Guest roger]

Quite the opposite. My friends and I have discussed how much Benjamin's marketing skills have grown exponentially since his earliest---if unfortunate---choice of a picture, and I certainly applaud Benjamin for charging whatever he feels his time is worth. I would not hesitate to hire him, should the need arise.

 

However...

 

My problem is not with the reviewee, but with the reviewer. I find it appalling that someone would get something so basic as the PRICE he paid for time with Benjamin incorrect. What service does he think he is providing to us, as potential clients, if he is unable to get his facts straight? For that matter, what service is he providing to Benjamin? It makes the rest of his review suspect, and open to potshots. If I were Benjamin, I would have posted a correction immediately, if only to say: "This client has not reflected an accurate price---please e-mail me for more details." However, that hasn't happened---yet.

 

And that there seems to be a lot of discussion about another escort who is charging what appears to be an extremely high price per hour makes several comments (not necessarily by Benjamin) to be rather hypocritical.

What happened here is not difficult to discern. Benjamin, as usual, sought to build himself up and promote himself through the only tactic he knows - tearing down other escorts; deaming other escorts' practices; and making catty, snide, bitchy comments about other escorts' ads, all in order to make clients think: "Oh, that Benjamin is on our side against these bad escorts; he must be good. I should pay him $1,500 to watch him sleep."

 

Only this time, Benjamin got caught. The snide, demeaning comment he made about this escort was based upon that escort's high hourly rate. Only Benjamin, as is quite apparent, is also a money pig - gouging clients with high prices.

 

Now, there's nothing wrong Benjamin or any other escort charnging a lot of money if clients can will for it. But that's exactly the point - Benjamin attacked this escort ("I hope he has a day job") for doing exactly that which Benjamin himself does all the time.

 

HEY BENJAMIN - you can promote yourself and your escorting "career" without having to post messages on this Board every day which have no purpose other than to call other escorts "hustlers" and to demean them in order to build yourself up. Try it once and see.

[+ BenjaminNicholas]

Doug~

 

You sound like an intelligent guy, so you get my respect for putting together a sentance correctly. As far as tact goes... You obviously have none.

 

Isn't it just too easy to write snide & biting comments when you don't have to worry about it being connected to you personally? I thought so. In the time i have been on this MC, it has never been my intention to tear down escorts. If anything, i've given credit where it's due and moreso. A helping hand in this industry is tough to come by without having to deal with fellow escorts trashing you.

 

I have at some points called a spade a spade. Barebacking regarding Aaron Lawrence was something i felt strongly about, so i wrote on it. For the most part, my posts tend to stick to the positive aspect of things. As a good friend so lovingly told me on the phone today... I'm the Richie Cunningham of the MC

 

My comment which started your whole tirade was meant in good humor, as the smiley-face would have indicated. Furthermore, your price structure that you keep quoting for me is seriously flawed. Try some real investigating, finding out my ACTUAL rates and then make your judgements based on that info.

 

Then again, it's so much easier to just go on half-truths & bullshit, spinning it into what you would have people believe as the honest truth. Come on... People are smart enough to know reality from financial fantasy. Get with it. There's obviously quite a bit of bitterness built up inside of you from the sounds of your blasting post. It's really sad in fact. It's even more disheartening that you couldn't even take the time to email me and settle this like an adult.

 

 

Then again... That's not the desired effect you were going for. A great performance Doug, but in the longrun it's like water off a duck's back. People like you just make me work harder to achieve the goals i've set for myself. Thanks again for the inspiration.

 

 

Warmest Regards,

In the meantime, don't let the bitchy old queens here get you down. ;-) One of your erstwhile detractors here called me a pimp a while ago. Go figure. x(

 

He/they aren't worth your time or mine. Life's too short. Enjoy it and let them stew -- all they do is talk to themselves anyway. :+

And are you and your friends involved in his marketing? If not, then why are all of you sitting around discussing his marketing skills? I assume you must at least be in the escort and/or porn industry to be doing this? Do you do this with every advertised escort? Inquiring minds want to know.

 

I don't know what picture you are referring to, but I have never seen one that was "unfortunate" and I have seen many, both published and unpublished.

Well, first off anyone can make a typo. Second, and just my opinion, I find the entire price question irrelevant when hiring someone for more than an hour/2 hour/sometimes overnight session.

What fees are charged/paid during longer sessions are usually negotiable between the escort and the client and dependent on several factors. As such, that's why the reviewer can specify "Ask Him".

 

>If I were

>Benjamin, I would have posted a correction immediately, if

>hasn't happened---yet.

 

Well first off THANK GOD!!! you are not Benjamin, as that would most likely end his escorting career immediately. Second if the fee caused your eye balls to pop out and doubt the review that followed, then as stated by others, shoot an email out to Benjamin and ask. Wouldn't that be a lot easier and a lot less suspect than coming here to the mc and voicing your accusations and doubts? Third you should ALWAYS be emailing the escort for more details and not relying on what is reviewed or posted here or other places.

Well exactly. So discuss that and stop spinning the thread off target, by posting your comments about Benjamin and then setting off more off target posts, like this one.

[VaHawk]

LOVE IT!!!

Well, no one is going to give his real name here. But he himself admitted that he posts reviews under one screen name and posts here under "Flower". What is he afraid of? Talk about chickenshit! Of course this is not one screen name hiding behind another is it?

 

>This "Flower" thing actually thinks that anyone who objects to

Well said, but you left out his accusations of "bastards" and "mean spirited" ad nauseum.

Oh no! Don't flowers spew their seed on the ground to propagate (sp? oh well if I did misspell, I'm sure he'll go to dictionary.com to correct me). That would mean a whole field full of Flowers and I do believe it would be better to have that seed confined (you figure it out). x(

[Chuck50]

Well My friend there are some of us who appreciate Benjamin for who and what he is and who and what he is not. We have been there done that and spent the money but more importantly it is quality time with Ben and we know of his truly gracious nature and attitude and don't like people who have an axe to grind trying to pull down one of our own. I have spent two differnt weekend periods with him and never sorry for it. I have gained so much from him a young pup. He is truly class and "Sauve de Boner" DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR??? HUGS Chuck
