Ask HN: How to price my startup's product?
4 comments
Be way up front with it. Priced correctly, that could even be a selling point, like overstock.com's shipping... "Any ticket, only $2.95 fee".
Instead of acting like an affiliate, buy in bulk for cheap and sell for a markup.
Don't charge "processing" or delivery fees.

Definitely do not hide the fee. I hate it when companies do that - moreover, it may not be legal to not disclose...
Why not test it some how. Ask people how likely they are to use again with two different fees.
So how do you think should I place my fee? Go for a dumping price? Hide my actual fee by adding it to the final ticket price or be offensive and clear what it will cost at the end?
