Ling Kae 488 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 There is a new way of extracting money out of those that don't know about it. This is only for those Go Go Clubs in LK Metro as I do not go down to Walking Street so I can not verify what goes on down there. Some Go Go Clubs have introduced a new elevated tiered price system for lady drinks. Didn't use to happen before. Example, I bought a drink in one club and the lady drink price was 200 baht. This is the highest I have ever paid here in Pattaya so I questioned it. The response was "she do lady show", "coyote only 160". OK so I checked bin and went elsewhere. Then the other night my friend with me was hit up for a 300 baht lady drink for a supposed "lady show" lady drink. So from now on I will ask how much is a lady drink first before buying. Be warned the Go Go bars are empty, they are paying big money for the girls to dance there, very few customers around so they are inventing new ways to scam the unseasoned travellers. Ask first and you will not have any surprises, cheers. Link to post Share on other sites
KittenKong 15,881 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 So from now on I will ask how much is a lady drink first before buying. In Thailand you should always ask the price of everything before buying, regardless of what it is. Link to post Share on other sites

There was always a kind of upper limit, a price you knew that was the highest and it wouldn't go over. Now it's all over the place and now you have to ask. What a pity they need to do this, the clubs in question are off my return visit list, then they wonder why nobody goes there. Link to post Share on other sites
Henryford 5,104 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 This always happened. On most a go go walls you will see tiered LD prices for dancer, model, show girl etc. Strange though that all the girls turn out to be show girls. Link to post Share on other sites

I've only maybe seen this once in the past 14 years in any go-go bars, so I guess this was way way before my time, circa 1975 perhaps??? Link to post Share on other sites
elgenon 1,511 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 There is also tier pricing in some ago-gos for barfines. The Alcatraz (gone now and deservedly) had 4 barfine levels. I could never figure it out. You had to ask. So I never went. In Mandarin BKK coyotes are more. In Shark and Airport Patts models were more . Don't know if still are. Was hard to know who was a model because they were just as unbeautiful. Yes, always ask. Oh and Iron had barfines upto 3k (for models). Now not doing so well. Link to post Share on other sites

peterb17 1,867 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Who cares - you are exploiting the local poor citizens- how would you feel if the tide was turned and lots of women were buying man drinks? To ogle your speedos ? No sympathy here . Link to post Share on other sites
sanemax 21,499 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 That is still quite reasonable , paying 200 Baht for a girl to be your friend for 30 minutes and thats including a drink for her . Link to post Share on other sites

The only problem is most would be paying for me to cover up LOL Not me but give you an idea> Link to post Share on other sites
manly36 21 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Go Go bars ...aaaahhh I remember them...after living in LOS for the best part of a decade, I have no interest in visiting them anymore and if the novelty has also worn off for most other long term expats, then it must be the tourist that is getting bitten in the pocket....then again, I am sure there are sexpats...oops I mean expats, who still frequent these establishments regularly and continue to get ripped off...no sympathy for them.
