When you know someone else in the club just overpaid

A few weeks ago, a few guys were sitting at a table next to mine. One guy was a regular and the other guy was a friend he brought with him.
The friend had never been to this club before. He was real talkative. In fact, he talked too much. The guy wouldn’t STFU. But, during our conversation I got some insight into the approach some of these guys take. I could tell that the guy who brought him to the club had deep pockets. A dancer came over to their table and within 10 seconds, he was taking her upstairs. The friend told me, “He’s paying her $500”.
This guy later returned to his table with a different girl who took his friend upstairs. I am certain that this guy had already paid this girl whatever her asking price was to entertain his friend.
I thought this guy was overpaying, and contributing to price inflation. There is no doubt that when this happens, word gets out to the other dancers and their prices go up and it is harder to negotiate. However, I made a very smart decision and kept my mouth shut about the whole situation. We all have our own set amount that we are willing to spend. I undestand that someone with deep pockets can comfortably spend $1000 on a strip club visit because that is just pocket change to them. It’s his money and he has the right to spend that much just as much as I have a right to refuse to spend that much.
However, this has me thinking. When you know that someone just overpaid, what thoughts go through your head and how do you react?

In reviews, I try to comment on my experience with prices.
There will always be suckers and there will always be cheapskates. Both hurt the product. If the dancers start thinking every guy is a sucker, they'll price themselves out of getting anything but suckers and will lose net business. If guys are too cheap, dancer quality will suffer.
It's best to seek the sweet spot of the supply-demand curve. You don't want to be at the ends as either a consumer or supplier.
If it’s a buddy I’m hanging with - I’d let him know what the usual club rate is. Then he can make his own decision - based on the dancers offering.
I’m not sure the OP’s logic is fully correct. They don’t have a board running in the dancers locker room with the recent dance prices paid (like they run on CNBC with stock prices). So one guy overpaying doesn’t automatically push dance prices higher.
I was at a filthy extras club years ago. There was a group of suits at the bar. It was obvious who their leader was - a fat ass wearing a white dress shirt and a tie. He was buying rounds for his minions. He couldn’t run a tab - because the club was cash only.
He wanted one dancer very badly. She knew he was happy to show off his spending - so she strung him along just a little. She would fuck a customer for $80 - but this guy easily pissed away $500 on her.
As I was walking out - she was sucking his cock in his BMW 7 series - parked on the street - outside of the club entrance. It was impossible to miss the fat ass - his white shirt picked up the street lights perfectly that night!
It was stupid to pay more - like he did - but he felt more important paying more - so why say anything?
Call it stripper radar much the same way a poker player can tell who the mark is at the table when they sit down. ( and if you can't tell it means it's you)
Permanent price inflation is not about one sucker who overpays on a given night. It happens when enough demand exists over time and from enough people at a higher price point that the girl can raise her prices and make at least as much, if not more, money in the process.
If a sucker walks in and overpays, then he may fuck up your plans for a night. However, if incomes improve and more guys are chasing the same tail, then permanent price inflation may be in progress. But whether it's a sucker temporarily causing imbalance or a more permanent issue, there is nothing you can do about it, so why stress over it?
When USA sex guide was active, I always used to chuckle when I saw guys on there exhorting others in my local area to stop paying the providers more than xyz because the prices were going up, as if whining on a particular website was really going to have a serious impact on the market dynamics for the area. The real culprits were things like rising incomes due to increased economic activities (construction crews, road work and other commercial building activities), better paying jobs (see previous plus tons of new good paying financial services and tech jobs), dramatic recent population growth, etc.
But these guys somehow thought they could hold increased demand in check if they just whined enough on one website. ;)

I always aim for fair pricing in the negotiation process, but I’ve also read enough discussions on this site and other sites to have an idea what is considered a respectable offer.
The dancer that got $500 from that guy was going to get that much from someone regardless. She easily banked over $50 in stage tips. Everyone wanted a piece of her. I tipped her a few bucks at the stage, but once I saw how much attention she was getting, I shifted my focus to finding a different dancer. In no way did the actions of those guys ruin my night.
