Free has been well ingrained in consumers these days. if I am willing, on CB to spend a couple hours I can always find a newb girl, usually teen, giving it all away for free.
Attitude is a factor. I have spent money on CB but in several years, less than 60$. Why? See above. If girl is sweet and gives nice close ups and more or less does what I ask, I stay, tip, give a little more. of course my numbers are low. By the time I take a girl private I am usually 2-3 minutes away from a nap.
People are worried. World is in bad shape and no signs of getting better, credit card security is a joke. Sales are slow thats for sure.
