Chinese massage parlour offers US$1 service to ‘exceptional’ guests who own iPhone 16, Mercedes
Women-only, next-to-nothing massage service targets high-end customers, but lists 27 criteria that must be met before customer gets the nod
A massage parlour in China is offering a shockingly cheap service, but to qualify for it, clients must be women and own either the latest iPhone or a luxury car to prove they are “exceptionally outstanding”.
The parlour in the southeastern Chinese city of Shenzhen promotes its exclusive massage for outstanding women on a popular review and rating app.
It offers a detox massage service, which includes an 80-minute full-body Chinese meridian therapy, for just 9 yuan (US$1). An 80-minute massage in the city usually costs around 200 yuan.
However, the shop has set 27 conditions for the low-price package, of which its female customers must meet at least one.
Requirements include owning property in a high-end community, driving an Audi, Mercedes or Porsche, using an iPhone 16 Pro Max, or owning luxury bags.
Additional criteria include being an employee of leading tech companies like Tencent or Huawei, holding Hong Kong or Macau residency, or having travelled to Europe or the US.
