Perhaps this is because I and the shadchan did not live in the NY/NJ area at the time, but she was quite up-front with how much a successful shidduch would cost ($1,500 total) which I was quite happy to pay. I gave her a check during the week of our sheva brachot. I was also lucky; not only was that the first time I ever used a shadchan, but also because I married the first girl she introduced to me!
