Finally made it down to Nogales. In brief: the spa currently rotates through 3 chicas- 2 during peak periods, 1 off-peak (M-Sun 11 AM-6 PM approx). Two spoke virtually no English, the last masseuse spoke sufficient English to negotiate. I'd estimate she has a 150 word English vocabulary. When I initially went there on a Wednesday afternoon, they called in another guy to translate. Price Change: this definitely got my attention… Forget their website and any pasts posts. They basically want 300 pesos ($23) per 40 min. for just the massage. "The time" as one of the chicas termed it. Just massage, no sexo. Now, this chica was a damn good masseuse so it's definitely a bargain. I just got robbed at an Asian massage parlor by a 40-year-old "girl" with no skill. But that is a story for another time…. Anyway, the Eros (CH Link) chicas want 300 pesos to start and $120 (1560 pesos) in addition to that for 40 min. of full service. So depending on how you structure it, if you figure a little tip they basically want about $190 per hour. Lousy negotiator? Maybe, but the girl was pretty firm (physically too…) on the price and consistent each visit.
Was it worth it? Damn straight. The three chicas ranged between 7-8 (Salma Hayek as a 10 and Sherri Shepherd from The View as a five). Good attitudes, very sexy, and actually knew how to give a massage. Amazing full-service. Area was safe and the policia patrol the general area.
Thanks to the other master-mongers for getting me up to speed…

LOL. Great rating system, although I'd have a 17 year old Anna Kournikova as the 10, replacing Salma (a seven in my book). They say she has a lot of body hair. Who knew? Sherri as a five is spot on...

Bare back blow job, french kissing, etc.?
Not speaking Spanish hurt your negotiations IMHO. You cant expect Mexican locals to speak English unless they were deported and are taking a cut from the girls.

The girl above is a 7 or 8? Only in Mexico! And the price seems off the charts high for that quality, even if the sex was amazing. These days in Rio I'm paying US$125 for 2 hours with a stunner who would be a 12 if this girl is a 7.
Nevertheless, I do appreciate the post and the information.

Q, Anna I'd put somewhere around eight or nine, although I never saw her at 17…. I'm thinking of Salma Hayek somewhere between Dusk until Dawn and Frida. That Colombian escort that got that dumb-ass Secret Service agent in trouble? 10. Although I can't say I've ever had pussy good enough to pay $800 for and lose my job over. Of course, I've never been to Colombia….
Blazers, I'm a pretty conservative guy and way too empathetic for my own good. The menu: mostly condom, brief BJ, hand job w/o condom, limited French kissing, missionary, doggie style, side, with lots of fingering throughout. I told the first one to massage me topless, which she did without complaint and I made sure to fondle her from time to time. She also let me blindfold and handcuff her (Velcro cuffs) but she became so tense and nervous, I put the toys away and went back to basics. She gave a good amount of groaning and wetness, so I was good to go.
Not speaking Spanish hurts everything far beyond negotiations. Bargaining for pussy isn't one of the basic lessons in Rosetta Stone. Can you believe it? C'est la vie.
I put the Chica in the picture below at a seven or eight. That being said, sexiness goes far beyond just looking good. I've seen chicks at strip clubs on both sides of the border that looked like eights, until their crappy or overconfident aire/vibe put me from blue steel to wet noodle.Hope you enjoyed my five pesos' worth of philosophy for today. Rock on

And about the price…. Remember price and quality are two separate things. Price comes down to supply and demand. I've been there three times, at different times of afternoon and night. My first visit was on an afternoon during the University of Arizona's spring break. Nobody there. Another visit was during an evening festival with at least 100 people milling about Elias Avenue. I've only seen one other person- who I was not quite sure was a client or business partner (because he was there with a date). Another time friday night@10 PM- nobody there. Amazing. So, when the supply of clientele dips, the general consensus has been that our friends in northern Mexico have decided to significantly up the prices.
Most Arizonans talk about Nogales as if Tony Montana patrols the streets spraying bullets every other hour. I'm not denying I got fleeced little bit. I just want to hear someone go down and get a better deal. On the bright side, I can't think of a happier way to spend $190. I've been robbed much more thoroughly at Best Buy or on eBay. LOL
I'd also love a Mexican-Spanish translation of the following phrase I'd like to try: "that sounds fair but if you drop the price to ____ pesos, I can give you a bigger tip"
Rock on

Went back to Eros Spa again on a Friday night at 10:30 PM. Once again, no other clients there. This time, 2 familiar chicas and a new one I'd never seen with the "translator/manager" hanging out in the lobby. He was definitely not the owner of the place, although he was probably getting a cut of the girls' services. It's not worth my time to speculate though. Anyway… I thought I would try my hand at negotiating this time.
I took one of the chicas I had not been with before to the back. Basically through my broken Spanish I tried to offer her an extended session for about two thirds of what I paid the first girl. She essentially said no, but it was clear something was getting lost in translation so she called her associate into the back room (the chica that I had been with) to help. Chica Number Two reaffirmed the original price structure. Next, I countered with "well, I guess I'll just get the $23 massage then." Her reply was "okay." I was waiting for some type of counteroffer that never arrived.
Now, here's the funny part. I deliberately took the least attractive chica, a 5 of 10 with a cute face but a good amount of cottage cheese around her belly, so I wouldn't mind walking away. I thought she was a 7 before she stood up and I got a good 3-D look at her. Anyway, mid-way through the massage we really started to vibe and I decided to pay for an abbreviated full-service session. Definitely not a mind blowing session, but pretty good. The girl's attitude though was all bubbles, sunshine and eager to please.
I'm relatively satisfied with the place but as far as I know there are no other massage parlors relatively close to the border.
