Too, some seem to relish the pleasure of a surprise, rather as one might be interested in unwrapping a present and seeing if one likes it. - (Captive of Gor, Chapter 14, Sentence #429)

Why risk one's life to obtain a free woman who might turn out to be as "ugly as a tharlarion" when one might, with no more risk, and perhaps less, because the pursuit is likely to be less fiercely pressed, pick up a lovely, easy-to-assess, well-curved slave whose selling price is almost guaranteed to significantly increase the weight of your purse? To be sure, free women are not immune to capture. Some, doubtless, are secretly scouted in the public baths. But, too, I think some tarnsmen enjoy the sport of introducing a free woman to bondage. Too, some seem to relish the pleasure of a surprise, rather as one might be interested in unwrapping a present and seeing if one likes it. Too, of course, the capture of a free woman of the enemy is regarded as quite a coup, certainly much more so than carrying off a mere slave, unless perhaps the slave is a high slave. Some men, of course, not just warriors, tarnsmen, and such, find pleasure in obtaining a new girl, a new slave, and then initiating her into the ramifications and consequences of her condition, in seeing that she is well familiarized with, and is well inducted into, a variety of dimensions of her new reality, in being the first to teach her, fully, categorically, her collar, in being her first master. Others find pleasure in taking one who has been a slave, and then teaching her truly, on their own terms, what it is to be a slave. - (Captive of Gor)
