I read somewhere online that the best time to get there is weekend after 6 pm. I went both places Locomotion and Amazing Essentials around 7 pm on Friday but both places were dead, all booths were empty. Anybody know what's the best time to go there?

The price has gone up to twenty dollars but you get more time it seems. One of the booths has two holes. Went up there pretty late so there was no one there.

Cute black guy at the counter this weekend. I've read stories before his store employees lock the door and come back and pound you. Was hoping that would happen.

Gloryholes are back again. Nobody was there though. Twelve dollars gets you about thirty minutes.

Gloryholes are gone. Kinda cute older woman working there. She came in the back when I was there. Was kinda hoping she'd want to play but not sure if she was just checking for stuff.

I like this place. It's quiet but it has a few gloryholes and the staff is great. Plenty of fun to be had here!

Isn't this place called Amazing.net now? Has anyone been there recently?

Thanks for mentioning the name change. Google confirms it is now Amazing.net. ~ Editor

The girls who work here are always nice. I go there quite often now that the rude clerk is gone.

Not really a good place to play. The management is very strict and they seem to keep a close eye on what is going on in the back. Video cameras everywhere. It's Ok, I guess, if all you really want to do is watch porn and jackoff but if you want to find a buddy to play with this is really not a good place. It used to be a great place with buddy windows and gloryholes but all that ended with the new management a few years back.

Nobody cruising the arcade except me on a weekday lunch hour last week. I have only gotten lucky here once or twice.

I have gone there several times to rent gay videos and pick up video head cleaners (if you know what I mean). I have found that the clerks there can be ok. In fact, one actually is very nice and one reason for me to return. The booths aren't worth checking out. So boring.

I don't go here as often as I used to. The staff is very unfriendly and homophobic in general. One clerk in particular is almost downright mean and looks as though he's about to kill someone. I find that you get treated with a little more respect when you purchase or rent straight material than gay. I've stopped using the booths because they are filthy, stinky and a rip-off.

I had the same experience with a very homophobic employee. They threw me out and all I was doing was hanging out a little too long in front of the display case containing all of the videos they were playing. That is the last time I will spend a single dollar at any Video Expo.

I have stopped going here because certain members of the staff are so unfriendly. One particular clerk comes into the arcade area if they see a lot of guys trying to hookup and starts slamming booth doors and making off color comments. They seem to encourage the Navy guys but really go out of their way to discourage the members of the GLBT community. This place needs a complete new staff to remain profitable in my opinion.

The best time to go here is in the afternoon. I blew two guys at the same time here last week.

The more I go here, the more I don't like it. The booths are not clean and the staff is very unfriendly.

There once was a great business here, but then the owner kept going up on the prices which now keep everyone away.

I tried this on a weekday at Noon and hooked up with two decent-looking guys. I went back on a weeknight and the place was empty.

I've hit this place when a guy and his girl would go into a booth. There would be a couple of guys standing around jacking off and watching them. She jerked me off, but wouldn't let me blow her guy. When this place is busy it's great.

The last time I visited this location, I overheard the manager training a new kid to watch the video monitor and he said, "Try to keep all of the fags out, I don't want this store to turn into what it use to be. Kick them out if you have to.”

Looks like most, if not all, the gloryholes have been closed up. It's a shame because it does have a good location that's close to the Naval base.

The store got a complete makeover and doubled in size, but with the same number of booths. It's hit or miss, but there always seems to be a sailor in need of a blowjob. The best times seem to be 3 to 6 pm.

I went on a Saturday this place sucks! They have closed up all the gloryholes.

ReportReport
Posted Jul 04 2000:
They have about fifteen booths that are located in
the backroom of the store. After 5 pm there are
usually tons of sailors. Plus, it is next to a topless
bar, so there is almost always someone wanting to
get off. People range from early twenties to late
fifties.
