sunandmoon:
I talked to Gabriel a number of times in 3-4 months. I really liked him. He got one point of contact right but that was it. Said I had nothing to worry about, we would be back together (this was over a year ago). It has never happened though.

marybell:
I am still finding my way around these forums.  I don't really know if I feel Deborah is gifted or not. The first thing she said right off the bat was very accurate, but I felt that maybe alot of people are going through "change". But she did she it was a new business venture with great potential.  All the rest was so fast, honestly, I can't remember.  Lets just say this, I will not call her back, and I did not feel I could leave feedback because I was so uncertain.
I looked up SanSanVi -7.00/min?  That's just too rich for my pocket book

stonyeye:
Yes. It's too bad. I don't know why SSV upped her rates so dramatically. Oh well. I was lucky to talk with her while her rates were a lot lower. I liked her a lot. Sorry you all. I wouldn't normally recommend anyone over 4 dollars TOPS. I still stand by the fact that she was GREAT for me but that was before the 7 dollar an hour rate. Very few could afford that. If her prices get lower again, she's a good one. I imagine they are all in it for money btw...it IS a business... but that is awfully high. Makes me wonder what percentage keen takes from their readers. Who knows how rates are decided. Strange.

sunandmoon:
Keen readers change their rates all the time. Check and see if they have more than one listing.

Look at this one:  http://www.keen.com/Norah%20Jones

She has a bunch of different categories. They often have different prices for each and usually love and r/s is the most expensive one.

stonyeye:
That's very true SunandMoon and a very good point. I've noticed the same thing about the price changes for different listings.

We don't know how keen works really and how readers are encouraged to place their prices or how much of their money that they earned per chat keen takes from them. I for one would be super frustrated if i spent an hour on the phone with someone, helping them with every single question ..charged 2 dollars per minute and only saw ...say...30 % of that... not to mention the advertising fees to have your name on the page etc. and the pressure of good feedback. I really don't know how keen pays their readers and what the cut is so it's not my business to judge what they charge.

I also wonder if readers up their prices during weeks when they don't really need to do readings or are extremely busy (for example (they have another job that is keeping them particularly busy, they are under a lot of stress, sick family members, or children home from school) so they up the rates big time during those periods of major activity and figure "I'm so busy right now that if someone wants to call me for 20 dollars an hour...then I'll take the call! Otherwise, I'll wait til things calm down." Let's not forget that keen readers are indeed working and they do deserve to be paid for their time. It's all a matter of how busy your life is and how much your time is worth I suppose. Would YOU spend 1 hour on the phone with a complete stranger talking about very personal details and trying to predict their future for free? Of course they are in it for the money. It's a business just like anything else. It's a caring business but still a business. A therapist charges a hundred dollars plus for an hour..so why should a psychic reader NOT charge as they are essentially offering the same service except they are tapping into their intuition.
 
BTW. this is not meant to be an argumentative post. I just want to consider the other side to why readers might charge higher fees than others and point out  that they are indeed in it for the money. i don't know many readers who would do something like that for free unless it was for a best friend or something. In fact, I have a very good friend who is psychic and I always insist on paying her when she gives me readings and even then I don't want to ask her to do it much because i can see how drained she is afterwards.

Anyway, just something to consider. Have a good day you all! xoxo
