kako: if you go to the doctor for a sliver and he charges you 50.00 – it isn’t just for taking out the sliver. You are paying him for his experience, his education and his good judgement. The same with the plumber and the electrician. You pay not just for the time, but for the wear and tear on his car and equipment and his training. Why is it any different for the shadchan. In one case, a few phone calls may result in a wonderful marriage, but in another it may take weeks of work to get the same result. You are paying for experience and judgement. The rates probably vary in different areas and with different groups.
