pirate club closed

[earthbound]

i went past the pirate club today and wanted to take a quick look again to see if any changes .. but the guy at the door said they closed down.. any word on this..

 

[?l????? peac??]

I went by Pirates during my visit to CR in February. Got there @ 11:30pm and told that they had closed early. Took a cab back to the gultch and the cabbie (who hangs out in front of the club) told me that biz was bad and only 2-3 girls had shown up that night. He predicted that the place would close in a couple months unless there was an influx of gringos and/or chicas.

Too bad since I had a very nice experience there in December with a cute Tica/Colombina mix named Andrea. Hope she finds a new venue to ply her trade (and that I find her). Also I think competition and another MP option are good things, so I hope this is just a temporary set back for them.

It is not exactly a shocker that they closed down when you consider theri prices. We can all help to keep prices in costa rica low by not overpaying.This is a good example.

Last I knew the VIP price for a chica and a first class room was $50.00 for an hour. Their drink prices were in line with other mongering venues and in fact a little less than ZB or Idem. I can not agree that their price structure caused their demise if in fact they have closed up permanently.

From what I have heard the problem was lack of talent that was the problem coupled with a less than desirable location and their low profile in the community.

Never been there myself, but from all reports, their prices were not the problem. Lack of hot chicas brought them down.

No Talent ,No Business

There is no question the lack of chicas is the problem.The place and the prices were fine,No Problem..!Definitley need more talent that are easily approached.It was like a jr. high dance,with the girls by themselves,almost afraid to approach the patrons at the bar.(I was there in October,and was the only guy iin the place)I have been in the gulch 2 x since,but didn't bother going over there.Great place bad entertainment.Hope they can correct.Bueno Suerte...!

If indeed we've seen the last of Club Pirates, it only proves the old adage "talent wins out" (or something like that). Meaning that you can build a palace, but if the girls aren't there - or the few that are there don't have the right attitude - it ain't gonna happen.

This is proven out by considering the opposite scenario - Oasis in 2005. No one has ever claimed to be blown away by the facilities there, but when you could session with talent like Pamela, Laura, Johanna, Jessica, Karen, or Cindy, etc. for $20/hour, it could have been on a bare concrete floor for all I cared. That place was ALWAYS busy back then, and for good reason.

Not claiming to be an authority on operating this kind of business in CR by any means, but if it was me, I would first make sure to offer enough in the way of incentives and/or subsidies to attract top talent and keep it there until such time as a regular and loyal customer base has been built up. Maybe it's harder than it looks, but at least that much shouldn't be rocket science.

seems like a typical story...

lack of knowledge and greed...

Two armed guards out front, stupid IMHO, pirate theme and pirate
costumes

They opened with a lot of loud noise but no management skills, they opened thinking they could get 100 dollars per session then quickly back peddled until........well you know the rest.

Seen it before ...gringo know-it-alls

unlike some other spots which just grew their businesses slowly and keeping their eye on the prize.

Wouldn't be suprised if the same happens to Kamur

I guess the former ZB gals Rachel and Paola will be looking for a new place to work......

 

[Joe Momma]

Rachel already moved over to New Fantasy a while ago (smart girl). Not sure who you mean by Paola - the Paola I know was still at ZB last month when I was there. Perhaps you're referring to Sophie, who I think is long gone from Pirates as well.

 

[goingfast2004]

Paola was still at ZB Fe. 15-19

 

[Timothy]

Rachel was at NF, is she now back at ZB? Word on la calle is she gives good head.

Can attest to Reichel's oral skills, although it has been a while :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

last time I saw her was at ZB......Hopefully her skills have not deteriorated :roll: :roll: :roll:

 

[Flexibels]

Rachel does give good head. It appears to be her preferred method for consummating the act.

sad to hear of the demise of pirates
was really looking forward to seeing the new place
but i would have to agree with the masses
bring the talent, they will come. . .
