I don't know about Saunas, as I have never been. Not some place I think I would really enjoy. Maybe in my younger days, but way out of my league now. lol. So far, THB 500 seems to be the standard off fee to the club/bar if you take a guy out. The rest is something you negotiate directly with the guy. Others on the forum are far more experienced with the negotiations than I am, but I aim for no more than THB 1500. Most will start at a higher request but seem to quickly come down once they realize you understand the game and are not a newbie...so to speak. Massage rates vary depending on type of massage and duration. In general, I think you can get a 60 minute aroma/oil massage most places for between THB 400-600. I have noticed that some shops even have 'happy hour' prices in Silom. Many of the shops also list a minimum tip for the therapist. If it is a legitimate shop, the tip seems to be very minimal. The S-type or #2 shops seem to post a slightly higher minimum tip. I think it is possible to walk away from these shops easily paying THB 1000 or less. The SS and H type shops (#'s 3 & 4) are definitely going to cost you more. The massage itself might not be more expensive, but tips are higher, plus negotiations take place behind closed doors...so to speak. bkkmfj2648 and vinapu 1 1 Quote

It's why it's helpful to have guy's Line or other contact so we can ask him to visit us without actually going to bar , just give him off fee he will be charged. But that option , while cheaper, misses whole entertainment part, show , interaction with boys and mamasans in the bar so I personally don't subscribe to it too often. Quote
