Julie, I'm am a longtime regular, but the chances of me posting my PIN here are about the same as the chances of you posting your address, apartment number and the code on the intercom at your new place.
Suffice it to say I've been a customer long enough to remember when the newly invented Julies Palace on the east side of Ninth Ave was welcomed by all customers. Long enough to remember Christina (from Costa Rica?) and her "mistake" with a customer (not sure if it was your customer).
In fact the concept of the "Julies Palace" summarizes exactly what I'm saying. Few people will ever complain if the price goes up but quality goes up as well eg Inna, Talia, Choe, Julianna etc. Until your expanation it seemed as though you had increased to "Julies Palace" prices, but without changing the quality of staff. As you've explained, that's not the case, which is great.
As for the age issue, I think you didn't notice the word "average" in my post, although you quoted me. I do think that that my estimate is about right. Of the regular girls, only Lola and Gabrielle and maybe Cheyanne are plausibly in the early 20's. Many of the others are in their late 30's. I was just making the point that it would be hard to justify the alleged new pricing (given that I don't partake of DATY or BBBJ), when one can go over the Red Room for instance and see a lineup that includes 3-4 girls who are clearly between the ages of 18-23 or so.
As I said before, not knocking your establishment, I like it and I think it provides good service,customer focus and great value. This is why I've remained a customer all this time. But I was concerned that the "value" part was going away, so its good to hear that it isn't.
