Reply To: Is there a tactful way to say Shadchan prefers money?

Any shadchan who does not state his/her fee upfront, IMO does so deliberately, knowing it will be a turnoff to many people (because the fee is probably excessive). It is improper to make a shidduch and THEN hit someone with an outrageous fee that is the so-called “going rate.” I wouldn’t pay ANYONE to do work for me, without knowing the estimated cost in advance.
