Getting a Bit Pricey

Postby Sir Noel » Tue Nov 19, 2013 2:18 am

Whilst i love your material and am happy to pay I have to question the ticket pricing on one of the three latest uploaded scenes.

I recall, when you unveiled the pricing structure regarding tickets, you mentioned that pissing and kreme scenes would cost a little more. Fair enough.

So this is what i see in the latest 3 scenes

1st scene Piss My Ass Off 2047 - 1 Girl and 2 guys, for 2 tickets logged in, 3 tickets if I log out. No problem here
2nd scene Gape to gape scene 2046 - 2 girls (one of them Cayenne Klein) and 1 guy, again for 2 tickets logged in, 3 tickets if I log out. Again, seems reasonable.

Then we get this

3rd scene 3 on 1 2042 - 1 girl (Cayenne Klein, again)and 3 guys, for 4(!!) tickets logged in, 5(!!) tickets if I log out.

So what is going on here? I note Sandra Luberc's 3 on 1, only a few days ago, cost just 2 tickets and now you have doubled the cost. I have held off actually actually parting with tickets for this in case it is some kind of error on your part, it certainyl seems strange that a scene with Cayenne and another girl costs half one with Cayenne on her own (albeit with more guys).

I do hope you keep your pricing sensible here and don't start escalating things, you will only frive good customers away.

It's tough to make money in this industry, and even tougher to make enough money to pay for scenes like the ones Legalporno produces.

I agree that the site has gotten pricier, but I don't see any going back at this point, and I don't think it's actually a bad thing

some scenes are expensive and so 5 bucks for a scene is not so bad-- even 4 if you bought 100 tickets... lucky they are not 15-25 like there were on sineplex
back in 2009-2011.

also this scene was expensive to shoot.. you know cayenne is a princess and has a lot of red lines.... but well worth it for some.. enjoy it

evil-pineapple :- To be clear m8, I have no issue with the site getting pricier, but pricing a single scene at 4 tickets seems a bit steep. I had no issue with 3 tickets for the best scenes (and wouldn't mind 3 tickets for the scene in question) but we have gone from 2 tickets from Sandra Lubercs awesome 3 on 1 to 4 tickets (5 for those who don't choose membership) for Cayenne's within a week.

PC_82 Maybe cayenne is expensive top shoot, I don't know, but her other scene released the same day (when you had to pay another girl as well) is only two tickets.

Anyway, if you are telling me four tickets is the price then four tickets it is. It will be interesting to see whether ticket prices inflate over the next month or two, I do hope not.

That fucking watermark needs to be a little smaller, though.

Please tell me that's a joke.

This watermark is a good size: http://legalporno.com/player/watch/cid/27191

I cannot stand the ticket pricing scheme. There is absolutely no rhyme or reason to it whatsoever.

I hope as well as making the watermark smaller they tuck it in closer to the corner. Just looking through other studios stuff I can't see anyone else having the watermark so far out into the picture - get it in the bloody corner FFS :)

I love your 3 on 1 content so I'm going to buy regardless but the price was surprising! I made cost assumptions that the female models was the highest paid in the scene, next some delta was applied for her popularity and finally the scene sexual acts are taking into pricing consideration. So just based on those assumptions and your latest scene lineups:
  1. Anal only (1 female - 1 male) - least expensive
  2. 2 on 1 (2 males)
  3. 3 on 1 (3 males)
  4. 2 on 1 (2 female)
  5. Group (2 female - 2 male)
  6. Group (2 female - 3 male)
  7. Group (3 female - 1 male)
  8. Group (3 female - 2 male) - most expensive

sex acts cost:
  1. vagina - least expensive
  2. anal
  3. dp
  4. milk
  5. kreme
  6. dap
  7. triple penetration (2 vagina ass or 2 ass 1 vagina) - most expensive
  8. piss

*** I understand that all pricing skewed by popularity of the star and what convincing needed to perform sexual act. For example Timea swallowing 3 big loads of cum would be very expensive since she doesn't like cum in her mouth. I'm not implying that I want to see it either just giving an example. ****

And yes I know what happens when you AssUMe !

I actually think the prices are still pretty cheap. 4 tickets is 1.73€ if you go the 90day plan or 2.40 if you buy 100 tickets only. They have to sell shitloads of scenes to get the money back on those prices. On most sites its 5 euro minimum per scene and it is for solo or vaginal sex. I really hope it is profitable for the LP guys with these prices.

^Not complaining about the prices, I bought the Cayenne 3 on 1 scene without an after thought! I'm just making assumptions of the pricing model and attempting to start a discussion if I got it right. LP has the best content on the planet!

Some great scenes the last couple of days (had been specifically looking forward to the henessy and Cathy Heaven scenes) and certainly more reasonable pricing. Starting to wonder if your computer just spews out a random number of tickets to charge for each scene!

Group (3 female - 2 male) - most expensive


What about 4 male 2 female. Maybe my favourite combination next to 3 on 1. Double DP's are awesome.

triple penetration (2 vagina ass or 2 ass 1 vagina) - most expensive


I will gladly pay what they're charging to see some scenes like this here. Don't forget triple airtight!

I don't see how 2-3 tickets for scenes that are sometimes an hour+ long can be to much for someone.

Remember the old days where you would purchase a single DVD with 1.5 hours worth of content for way more money than you would spent building yourself 3 custom DVDS worth of content purchasing scenes for current prices from legalporno?

Honestly, considering the kind of content you get you should rather appreciate the pricing!

The scene in question was 4 tickets for members, 5 tickets for non-members, not 2-3. I thougjt that was explicitly made clear in my original post.

you are missing the point... how is that to much for exclusive, high quality content?

ofc you could always wait quite some time for it to become cheaper, i guess.

The market will decide whether it is too pricy or not. My view is that ticketing at that level is over the peak of the curve. Clearly, if they could charge a billion tickets per scene and sell just one copy that would be the correct price but in the real world mist people, i contend, exoect a fair amount of porn for not a lot of cash so you need to price in a way that shifts a decent volume.
If you imagine the system in 6 months and think whether it will attract someone who realises he will have to buy half a dozen three month memberships to download all the content when any other site you can sign up for one month a year and catch up on everything.
Time will tell. As it stands those scenes represented a high water mark and ticketing appears to be back at lower levels.

I think a lot of the new videos are way over priced!!! A good scene should be 5 or 5.5 and an amazing scene should'nt be more then 6 or 6.5 tickets. There are older scenes that are of better quality that are like 3 to 4 tickets then newer scenes that are 7 or 8 tickets or even 9 or 10. There are new scenes that are 7 to 10 tickets that are just bad and not worth even 1 or 2 tickets. WTF!!!!!
