Black is the new Madahos in my book
I would suggest Madahos regulars give Black another try. With the rising prices at Madahos, Black is looking more and more attractive to me. There are more girls, less guys and the prices, if you can believe it are becoming cheaper than Madahos. The quality of the girls is also alot better. Much more 8's in here and the majority are solid 7.5's.
Entrance remains the same at 40 pesos and is cheaper than Madahos,
Chica drink prices are the same at 80 pesos.
The main difference is at Madahos, girls will try to charge you 600 pesos for an hour and if you want a TLN you have to pay the club 3 drinks on top of what you pay the girl. Black is much more practical. The girls don't have to come back, You pick up a young honey at 1 am, you pay for one drink. And if you pay the 600 AR, you keep her all night or until at least 5-6 in the morning. And the girls aren't pressured to return to the club.
The only thing that is somewhat unsettling to me is, since the girls can't just walk up and talk to you, you end up feeling like a piece of meat with all the girls staring at you like their only meal ticket.
Have fun,
Bad
BB Does Not Speak With Forked Tonge
Both Jackson and Bad Boy say Blacks is back in the running.
OK, it's time to go and see for myself. I went Friday night, Saturday morning 2am. I have not slept 4 hours in the last 36 hours--too pooped to pop. This was a scouting trip.
I was very surprised: Luis at the door let me in without the cover. I told him that I had not been to Blacks in 4 years, I was there because Jackson told me to look inside.
There is a higher concentration of 8's + than the other clubs. After a 20 minute walk around, I selected a solid 9 in my book, just to talk and get info--too pooped to pop. I was seriously over tired--having trouble in english much less spanish. The young lady was charming and thought my too tired routine was my form negotiating--she went from 600 pesos to 400 peso for 2 hours. When I still was not ready to leave with her-- At 3:30am I heard 300 pesos for one hour of message with a bbbj relax and she wanted me to have her cel number for another day when I had more energy.
Blacks' chicas are becoming more flexible. This woman was very. Very. Very hot looking. 5'5", 115, c breasts, tight curvey body with a cover girl face--an "A" girl anywhere in the world. There just were not enough guys spending money and too many girls asking for US$200. The laws of supply and demand eventually swing into action. Everyone of the chicas is asking us$200 and not enough guys are paying the asking price. The results of this scouting mission:
Hot desireable girls for 400 pesos for 2 hours with 50 pesos
Cover and 80 peso drink.
Under the current house policies at the two other recoleta high end clubs--if the chica is not back in 90 minutes, a second drink fee kicks in that either the customer or the chica pays. The Blacks pricing in many situations is the same or, for longer sessions, cheaper than the competition. Blacks is back in the game. .....no three drinks for all night .
Who has the better looking chicas? That's like arguing over the best flavor of ice cream. There are gems available elsewhere for 150 to 200 pesos if you look. The best looking chicas are not always the best providers and blah, blah, blah. This posting is about the competition between three high end clubs that market glamor and illusion, not necessarily the best erotic experience. In my mind:
BLACKS IN BACK IN THE RUNNING. THE OWNERS AT LAS LOPEZ AND MADAHOS HAVE HIT THE TOP PRICING IN THEIR MARKET WITH THE CLUBS' ADD-ON FEES. [See my posting on a 700 peso experiece at las lopez] BLACKS HAS NOT AND CURRENTLY MAY OFFER EQUAL OR BETTER VALUE. I am not going to argue that one flavor of ice cream is better than another. With any luck, I'll have hours of fun with my Blacks fantasy girl for 300 pesos within a few days. Blacks will sell me more 80 pesos glasses of orange juice for the opportunity to feast on the illusion of glamor. I will make a few less visits to madahos and las lopez[Bobby, your add on fees are just too high]

Buenos Aires visit to Black.
I visited Black on Thursday night. There are several girls at Blacks that deserve a 7 or 8 in my book. I don't' think there were any 9's. The place is very upbeat and it could be fun to hang out here, but I don't believe the girls here are worth the asking price of 600 pesos for one hour, plus the 2 beers at 80 pesos each.
If you take into account the 40 peso entrance and drink fees that you end up paying about 800 pesos for one hour with an 8 looking chica. That amount translates to about US$ 270. I think that it is absurd, if I am flying all the way to B. Aires, and paying $270 per hour for a chica.
I am a resonably high payer. I negotiated with a girl in Black and she started with 900 pesos, I start thinking in my head that with this starting price attitude why she don't just ask $900.
I mean that is a ridiculous starting point. I negotiate her down to 500 pesos, and I ask her if she will do 2 hours or more for that price. The girl's attitude was more or less hour and a half, and I have to buy 2 drink at 80 pesos, plus 500 pesos for her. At this point in time I am just pissed off and completely turned of with this girls attitude I just tell tell her that I will think about it and let her go.
I looked at my watch and it's about 3:30 am. I decided that there is no sense negotiating any more just decided to go to the Cocodrillos. As soon as I leave the bar, this girl that I was negotiating with also leaves the club without any guy with her. The attitude is that leave home alone without any money, but not be nice about the negotiations.
On the other hand my friend Marco Chileno left with a 7 looking girl for 450 pesos *2 hours* plus two drinks. He had a good time that night but agreed with me next day that Buenos Aires clubs like Black and Madahos have priced themselves out of the market.
On a side note I think there is alot of inflation in Buenos Aires right now and the peso will eventually have to go down back to 4 pesos to a dollar, for Buenos Aires to be competitive in almost all traits. The above note can be argued separately, but I know my Economics and that is just my analysis and that conclusion is made not only Chica prices but including food prices, property prices, and several other day to day expenses.
Regards,
John.
Do not pay those ridiculous rates
Dude, stoked you did not pay marginal black chicas gringo rates.
Keep posting El Alamo conquests!
Always have a backup plan
I usually have a backup plan when I hit the clubs in the evening. If I don't see something I like in the first club and / or I can't negotiate a reasonable rate, I leave. The second club is one I can usually count on.
For Black, I ALWAYS have a backup plan. I don't expect to pull someone out. I go in with an open mind and 'see what happens'. Quality is generally not the issue here, rather price. I'm prepared to move on if I can't negotiate a reasonable price.
I always leave Black in a good mood, because either:
(a) I got a deal I was happy with, or,
(b) I leave knowing I contributed (even in a very small way) to price control and sending the message that there are guys who are just not going to pay inflated prices.
I usually buy the girl a drink first before I negotiate. If we can't agree on price she wasted a half hour or more with me. Unless the girl is my ultimate fantasy girl, I have no problem walking away from the failed deal. I'll find something good at another club. And I get a small satisfaction from having sent her a message (and any girls nearby who may have witnessed the failed deal) that her price is too high.
Up until last year I never paid more than 300p at Black. This year was the first I paid 400p which is my new current acceptable price point here.
Finally a Blacks's girl does Bob
Monday night--federal holiday time-- at Blacks. The sweet blond over 30 who I have my eye on is not here tonight. I've bought her a drink and almost closed the deal twice. We have some chemistry and she is my preferred target. She has a perfect body and when she smiles my heart skips a beat. She the type of girl that provides a reason for blacks to exist.
I see the other blond who belongs in playboy--she's a waste of time: she starts at us$300 and will not go below us$200 for one hour. I truly believe that she will get up and leave after 59 minutes. She's not a good candidate despite her 9.5 looks. The truth is that I'd almost be willing to pay money to just look at her. Blacks does really have a number of breath taking young ladies.
First new candidate. An 8.0--really elegant and sexy dress. 80 peso drink and after 30 minutes of chat, a little kiss-kiss we get down to particulars as she strokes my inner thigh.
This should work! She would love to share everything I want+. Looking good------now $$. I suggest that let's avoid negotiation and pretend that she asks for us$200 and I discuss 300 pesos and that we compromise on 450 pesos. I have a 500 pesos limit. She looks upset and lets me know that she doesn't do anything for less than 600 pesos. Then she tells me about a recent us$400 todo el noche. I go to 500 pesos and she gets up and leaves.
She just walks away! I get up and follow to whisper in her ear--500 pesos is just for the first 90 minutes--I really want her. She kisses my cheek and says, "No, gracias" I am shocked.
The waitress gets her tip from me and chats me up. She points in the corner and says that the young girls in the far corner will be more flexible. I go look. Three 6-7's 20 years olds--They look like triangle girls. I've wanted the Blacks glamor plus experience, not a triangle girl.
I sit down in the far corner by myself to finish my drink and think about Cattos-- it's about 2:15 and I can still do it. A tall slender blond starts to dance in front of me-shaking a sexy booty in my face. This is worth a drink.
Chemistry and hormones kick in. She's kissing my neck and doing the sell. She is not leaving for less than 600.
OK, I'm a sucker. I need it now. She says 3 hour are just fine, time is not an issue--she likes my skin. She goes for the waitress--lets go now. The waitress she brings over is not my buddy who I usually look for and talk to. The new blond waitress says the chica drink is 120 pesos. Some disagreement ensues. When did the price of the chica drink increase from the 80 pesos I paid for the same champaign that I purchased 45 minutes ago. MY girl tells me to pay at the bar. At the bar they verify 80 pesos is the price. Scams. I'd bet my girl was in on it, but was smart enough to back off when I was not buying. This is cheap hooker click-joint bar stuff. What happened to the glamor and illusion of Blacks? It's really a cheap hooker bar with an exaggerated image it tries to sell. But the upper end girls are the best in terms of looks and image. I am not willing to pay what the want.
She girl is better than average. She knows her job well and is a type that I like. She provides 3 hours of good solid service. She admits that there are many nights that all she does is sell drinks. There is pressure to raise the rates to 600 pesos, she tells me. She tells that the rates are high and that we have good chemistry and will become friends.
She then sits at my laptop to have me send her a mail and gives me her home and cel number. She will be happy to come over for two hours before work for 300 pesos and so will her sister, who also works at Blacks. I guess that we may have some chemistry and she is a solid 7.5 to 8.0 a repeat would be likely, but I have three other girls I know where there is mutual chemistry in full bloom who are happy with 150 to 200 pesos and enjoy my pleasure and I enjoy theirs.
In retrospect, I should have left and gone to Cattos. I might go back again, but only to look for my blond who I was intending to meet when I walked in through the door.
She'll eventually go for 500 pesos and we have great chemistry in the bar or at least she is a better actress. Her face does make my heart skip a beat and this is only thing that Blacks has, if you are willing to pay: some of the most beautiful women in Bs As.
