Appreciate if anyone here can help me out with some advice and recommendations

Outside of HCM Many Beautiful Places
Hi all, please excuse me, I need ask something off topic... Any seasoned samsters in Saigon know any reliable skilled motor repair shops/mechanics for some basic minor repairs/ maintenance? I would still go to authorized centers for original parts replacing or tuning or timing which other non-authorized shops may not know exact specifications/procedures? Preferably they could understand some basic English, at least the names of the motor parts? I'm staying near to bui vien.
I bought a 2nd hand SYM Excel 2, 150cc. Nice looking and cheap and quite powerful, 9M VND, purchased it at Phan Dang luu street (many 2nd hand bike shops along both sides of road). Used to rent bike @ 1M to 1.5M VND/ month. Since I always return back, figured might be more worth and more shiok to get own bike, then sell it back later, lets say 2M lesser, still not bad.
Any bros to suggest some shops? Will appreciate it very much... ^^
for tet found myself out in vung tau (non resort area).
quit a few brothels around, but a slightly different set up than what i'v seen in HCMC (i.e. these weren't hot tocs or MP, but... a mix of the two).
first one i popped into was offered FJ for 500k. never this easy in HCMC.
looks like ill be exploring Vung Tau in 2014 =] i'm more or less retired from HCMC exploration (will just stick with what i know here).
i'll be making it out here most free weekends that i have until i really get to know the city. if anyone has any starting points, please let me know :]

the viet language 4run talk abt places where its 70k ticket tip the girls 400-500k...i went to a few that where decent but the trip to vt plus getting a hotel room plus fucking on a massage table negates the advantage of the cheapness and the of getting fs in vt cf to hcmc.
This was when u could regularly get fs her for 650-700k..now its 800 but still not worth the trip specifically for it. I found one in vt where the quality of the girls is quite high for 200+500 but not sure if price has increased and again im noty sure adress just know how to get there, but im sure if u make small talk with xe om guys in vt u can get the specifics of location
please do advise me how much should I bring (excluding hotel/airfares) for 5 days 4 nights trip.
My plan is to chiong massage/saloon (3 days) and chiong ktv (2 or 3 days) and perhaps dabao 1 girl for overnight..
Hope senior bros and advise me... thanks !!
while prices vary depending on location/girl, i'll give u the range. lower prices = local fare while higher prices more for foreigners (unless ur okay with run down places, i suggest considering the higher prices)
massage: 200k to 500k
salon (no happy ending): 70k to 500k (infamous le duyen is more 400k-500k)
salon (happy ending): 150k to 400k
ktv: ~1m per person include tip for everyone except girls (tip about 300k for girl).
overnight: 1m to 3m.

yup, but i've got other reasons to be out there, so might as well save my cheong budget for new places rather than my same-ole okt.
by the way, i took a good look at the building i talked to you about earlier - and i think it is the apartments you are talking about. the apartment building is built like a fortress. but i think they changed business model i.e. have to go to nearby hotel. ;]

Sorry bro, i no senior in HCM, just keep trial and error exploring here, and researching before chionging to avoid getting chopped or spoiling market. Would u have a local guide/friend to bring u around for good places? dabao chio girl overnight for 4 nights might cost near to 10M already.. KTV 3 nights roughly 3-5M. Massage/saloon 3 trips 1-2M, depending you know where to go.
If me, I would bring another 30-50% more to be safe and comfortable. Anyway, there is always credit card to use in most KTVs. TS has a nice list of KTVs/Bars/Clubs/saloons etc (see his signature) you can refer to.

salon (no happy ending): 70k to 500k (infamous le duyen is more 400k-500k)
salon (happy ending): 150k to 400k it's hard to find coz mostly hidden..and if u don't speak ting viet..more less chances
ktv: ~1m per person include tip for everyone except girls (tip about 300k for girl).
overnight: 1m to 3m.
btw..im going aqain saigon in this MAY bringing 3 people to explore.. and sifu can share the saloon with happy ending? few trips go there haven't been to this kind of joint..only been to benny and those normal saloon like le duyen and bar 91,45 etc.. feels like going back to dist 7 again after disappointment time at dist 7..and might explore VT if any seniors got namd and add for massage and st at vt..thanks.. IT"S GREAT TO BE BACK!!

Mr Phighter, can advise on which rd name do you usually stay? Or which rd name you recommend for good massage with nice gal (tabaoable) and good street food? Thanks for sharing the market rate..
happy ending salon: these are local fares, dirtier places, milfs unless you hunt, etc. and mostly outside of D1 (i.e. behind airport, etc). for example - massage tables have sheets that aren't changed at all, girls spit on the floor that isn't mopped, girls don't use mouthwash, etc. honestly, not many sammies would be happy going to these places.
street i stay? i'm local so i live out in Binh Thanh district. Suggest you stick with Ben Thanh area (Cho Ben Thanh or around Le Thanh Ton/Hai Ba Trung area) if your looking for a place to stay.
massage with taobao girls - i don't know what taobao means, but many MP around D1 with very attractive girls giving HJs. MP are not the places to find girls to book outside. BJ MPs are rare and do exist, but I have no recommendation within D1 or surrounding districts as its a rare business model these days (if you are willing to travel to say... Thu Duc, then i know).
There are few MP girls/places that will offer to go to hotel with you, but its hit or miss. of say... 30 MP trips i've had 2 girls offer (2M for 4 hours and only before they start their shift the next morning i.e. 9AM to 1PM).
best place IMO to find a bookable girl is KTV. you can get a motorbike girl but mostly shit service. atleast KTV girls u can spend some time with, get to know her, etc. which means she will more likely give okay and above service. also few places around here and there which line up 10-20 attractive girls for you to choose, but again, very very shit service.

Thank u Bro for sharing such enriching info. It will definitely benefit the sammies visiting HCM. Will heed ur advice to patron the ktv rather than MP. Does the ktv gal understand mandarin/english/hokkien/teochew? Wats ur opinion on the market rate for bringing the ktv gal out for overnite session? Say, 1 am to 10 am. Btw, tabao means bring out gal to hotel. Thanx a million for your sharing.
