A few questions:
1) Are you Chinese?
2) What language are the conversations in?
I have had some ladies jack the price up on me, but many of those times, I hadn't firmly confirmed the price and was going off what was advertised on the sites. Sometimes, I will show them the price, but they still argue. I chalk it up to "foreigner tax". I also don't speak Chinese, so communication is difficult. Sometimes, I can play this to my advantage, but I usually end up paying something.
There was one lady recently (can't remember the name, so I will have to search for it), and the price was something like $380 on the site. She wanted to charge me $400, so I figured whatever, I just won't tip. As we got going, she wanted to nickel-and-dime me for everything... +100 for BBBJ, +50 for fingering, +100 for DATY. I said no to most of those and did not partake, but she tried to charge me for them at the end anyway. I told her no, I was only paying $500 for the FS + BBBJ or whatever it was. She wanted $580 or some bullshit. I said, no. One of the girls next door came in to help sort it out and I held my ground and walked off. She wasn't happy, but her friend seemed to understand and told the girl to give it a rest.
EDIT:
I think it was this girl Sum Ching (Sum Yee on other site). If it wasn't her, I did try her and was disappointed, but didn't report earlier.
