My guess only as I'm still green. Usually from 25k to max of 50k since it is usually a short drive around that area..

Remember some bros have mentioned about Moonlight Massage but not much info.
Have search a few time given the direction by some bros but unable to locate. Just happen to come across Moonlight Massage on 1.4.11 when going to Sedona. So decided to try new place to see how their service standard.

Went for 1.5hrs massage with bro badboi07. Place nice and clean. Usually massage room only with curtain but this one got door and can be locked from inside. Good privacy, no worry for hanky-panky. Wait for about 5 mins the gal came in. Look 6/10. Boobs ‘C’ cup. She is quite friendly during massage. Her massage skill is good. When massaging my thigh, her fingers keep touching my 2 balls. My didi also start to stand-up. After ½ hr massage, I turn-over to my front with my didi still standing hard. She look abit shy so I just closed my eyes for her to massage. During massage, she keeps flipping the towel high and I think she is looking at my harden didi. Again when massaging my thigh, she keep touching my didi, pushing my didi left and right. Wow…feel very good. About ½ hr before time, she asked in indo, “koko, mau apa lagi yang enak” So I asked her how much? She quoted Rp500K. I said Rp150K. After some though, she reduced to Rp300K but I insisted Rp200K. Lastly, no deal. (I don’t accept cos I always pay Rp300K for LT at Sedona) She is not worth the RP300K for her look…..

Before going down to the reception. I saw badboi07’s massage gal. Waa….. look like chinese, very fair and pretty. Look 8.5/10 thru’ my eyes. But wasted, badboi07 didn’t make any deal with her. I think if offer RP300k a shot is worth it man……

Just for your infor. only,

"Life is short. Enjoy while you can"

Remember the word : "One man meat is another man poison".

Finally the gals give in to performing specials? 500K? You tell her you are from singapore? Chop robert. Tell them you frequent here alot and the going around price is 150K. If they say they younger and looks blah blah, nego again. usually i gotten 150K for a normal one. Anything more than 200K? Must be my type or good pair of tits( DD or above).

Hahaha, must be you have a hard on while massage, usually, for me, no hard on while massage, until the end, when the fun begins. If they start rubbing to make a hard on, I know the hint liao.

No lah bro. even don't tell them we r from s'pore, i believe they also know bcos the way we talk. For 500K can get gal, look at least 8/10 at any fish-tank. Agree what u said, no big tits or look at least 8/10, i wouldn't pay more than 200k also.

U r right, hard on while massage. She keeps touching my didi during massage, so naturally my didi just stand up leh....ha.....ha.....

Anyway, thanks bro for your comments.
