I can't believe this company is offering a scenario where you pay an upfront cost to try to get something for less than it usually sells for. I haven't seen anybody get away with that since basically every retail outlet in America charged an upfront cost -- time and inconvenience -- for the chance to buy stuff at a discount, on Black Friday. Unprecedented. I have no idea why measuring certain things in dollars rather than hours or oranges or whatever else throws people off so. If this business freaks you out, and regular retail stores don't, you haven't been thinking hard enough about the latter.
