It’s not bizarre at all. If it was there wouldn’t be people chiming into this thread saying they owned a business that caters to this exact request.

I appreciate you trying to save me a buck but this is not a money saving situation (who attempts to get a professional dealer on a budget?), this is a “I would like this specific thing and I’m willing to pay for it” kinda thing. Shit, I could do the dealing myself (or one of the guests) but then that person isn’t having the same level of enjoyment as everyone else. It’s much easier to have someone else do the dealing so no one has to worry about it. Also, do you just let random people in your home for hours at a time without some sort of verification or loose reference?
