that the marketplace you idiot, the producers are the demand, the model's time they supply
the price they come to is the equilibrium price

If everyone said, ya know what, we are gonna pay $200 for solo, $400 for toys etc...what do you think the talent would do? They obviously cant strike, there is no union. They would have to accept those rates or go try and make a living in the real fucking world and make slave wages.

so your talking market collusion, which is by definition a non market condition.
the problem with that is models will go to other jobs that pay more (like escorting) or that have less of a stigma at a lower price point (like swimwear modeling/catalog modeling etc)

To all the people in here supporting these girls and continuing to give them more and more just because they think thats what their pussy is worth, just hand them a toy, bend over and let them fuck you in your ass. Thats basically what you are doing as they laugh themselves to the bank. Sorry to see so many who dont mind being played like a bitch.

that the principle of the marketplace you idiot, the equilibrium price is based on the amount people are willing to pay and the rate models are willing to give up there time.
drive the price to low and models will sell their time in a different field.
porn producers have to compete with every other revenue source the model has (her own site, escorting)
if you want better rates you have to negotiate based on non monetary values like branding , market reach, promotion, etc.
