I've been punting since 1983, and have to agree.
I remember some years ago when a punt was about R300, falling for the advert of some larney place in Bryanston, and paying R600 odd. Afterwards I realised I should have stuck to my guns and gone for 2x R300 punts.
But wtf, if a place can get away with double the "right" rate, it's a free market and if someone's dumb enough to pay, who can blame the girl?

The price punters pay is a function of the venue's pricing, or simply how much a WG think she ought to charge.

I too am a experienced ( polite for old) punter.
I agree that WG's can charge what they like BUT like with anything "let the buyer be aware"
For me in punting there is little to no link between price & satisfaction received !!!!!
I will go further ...... Often what higher price buys you is attitude and that, to humble self, is as bigger turn off as bad hygiene.
