I wouldn't say Temple Street is totally dead right now. If you stroll through there in the afternoon after 3:00 or there abouts, there are still several groups of girls hanging out in the usual places, as well as the older mamas sitting on chairs whispering to you as you pass by. It seems that later in the evening when the market is in full swing, there are many police and very few girls out plying their wares.

you need to expect that most of the good looking photos uploaded onto this site been gone over with photoshop

Here is a great example or Photoshop at its best...

I think I've met the first one before in TST  

Good PS comparative shots.

I think we are all realists and know the WG photos are mostly "boosted" whether by PS and/or professional make-up, lighting, photo shoot. Same goes for models and actresses.

Some gems exist, and your 3rd set of photos is a good example, just my personal opinion but I kind'a like her before shot better ... they've taken a "honey" and turned her "alien".  

Yeah, sometimes the girls are completely different. Some turn out looking like a much older sister or even mother of the ladies in the database. Some of those db girls' pictures look amazing. But of course they're photoshopped. And the boobs are almost always enhanced by photoshop or ultra pushup bras and getting the angle right on the picture.

Honestly have not seen that many pretty girls in hong kong to that level.

Just take a look at the girls you like in the db and run a search for them here in the forum. Check out their pictures and reviews. Then, when you see them in person, the shock won't be so severe. Usually you gotta bump the quality of the ladies down a couple of notches.

I had experience it once in a WG in Kwun Tong. There was this Gal in KT ( Bldg. in Mut Wah St. ) that i was really desperate to try that time, Obsessed by her legs and the curve of her body, quickly went to the place... and turns out that it was an... EPIC FAIL...

It is pretty well known fact in the Chinese forum that the girl in your pic doesn't exist....

Unless we are coerced into one girl -- very unlikely, I think we always have the right to say no and walk away if the real goods doesn't look like it was advertised. PS is done to enhance and in some cases deceive punters but we can just assume that girls here aren't as good looking as they are in actual person (makeups, lighting, PS power, etc).

This is why Im glad 141 exists, The first time I saw the DB pics I thought WOW and then I saw the real pics. what a let down. But when I head to HK again Ill be prepared, too bad I found it just after my last trip

I've experienced this before and I simply told the girl to leave without paying her a dime.  Not my fault!

it's intimidating when she's standing right there, but u can grin like an idiot, suddenly grab yr phone, make an "OH NOES!!" face at the phone and say: "sorry, be back in 5 minutes," head out muttering into yr phone and just keep going, bro.

that's not too suave, i'd love to hear about other techniques when yr FTF with the technician, which is a worst-case-scenario. if yr facing a lineup and no one takes yr fancy, u can say to the PPS/MMS, "oh, very nice...but i may have to come back later (check phone time?). what time do u close?" get their business card. that way u give them face, plusu never know: they might give u a discount-coupon, and u might come back another day and find TOO MANY girls that float your boat.

but, yr under no obligation. they switch rooms, switch girls, Photoshop fotos so they barely look human, etc etc. i like the MKK knocking-shops as they page the gals they have on hand, so generally u get gals who are gwailo-friendly. but sometimes they send u a technician who really isn't what u want AT ALL. smile, look at the PPS and say, "change girl?" they will. she won't take it personally, there's another guy out there somewhere.

if u do this more than ONCE, they can act a bit annoyed. so don't do it too often. i did it one time: they brought this gal, no. sat back for five mins and watched the dumb porno on the tiny teevee set (i always turn DOWN the volume, who needs that noise). girl #2, and...NO. just was not gonna do it. so i apologized to the guy and asked for a secondchange. he didn't look happy.

they leave, back to watching dumbass porn. now i'm waiting 10-15 minutes. so either they're gonna come in and chop me into 19 pieces or...

door opens and FOUR mainland cuties come in. any one of them wd have been fine, but even tho TWO were superfine, there was no choice: this blonde from Hainan Island in awhite microdress was slaying me. i thanked the PPS. she was like milk-made-soft-porcelain: pale and luscious, pert and firm...no English skills, didn't matter. when i left i gave the PPS a big thumbs-up and left a tip for him (tipped the gal in the room).

so, ya never know. but, yr the client. i've had 141 doors open, not found who was looking for, dallied with 'em anyway and had a great time. but remember: you can ALWAYS walk, just do it with a smile and an excuse, however feeble...they've had it happen many times before.

I'll be heading to HK for the first time next month. I'm trying to pre-bookmark locations on my gps in my IPAD. Where exactly on temple street are these girls? Is there a specific building along the street market or they are literally walking around the street and soliciting you?
