I've lost track of how many times I've walked away from some online product or service that I was interested in but refused to publicly disclose prices beyond, "FrEe TrIaL!"

Nah thanks. If you're playing mind games like that right off the bat, that tells me everything I need to know about the experience of using the product.

Same here. If a company isn't upfront about its pricing, all it gets is my suspicion but none of my money. Bye Felicia!
