I might be alone in this thinking but the "price goes up every 100 purchases" really gives off the wrong vibe. I understand you are trying to convey scarcity and value, but it comes off like some sort of used car salesman pitch.

Maybe I just too cynical these days, but when I hear certain phrases from salespeople, I immediately shut down the conversation and move on. Am I being too critical? Or is there an angle that I'm just not getting?

I love the product by the way! And the price is very reasonable. So I'm just a little bewildered by the hard sales pitch.

Good feedback!

That's there to help bump people over the "Eh I'll buy this eventually" hump, which is common with nice-to-have infoproducts. Because I don't want to do the open/closed cohort based approach at this time.

I don't have the traffic volume or brand strength to go with the "You'll remember to come back when you're ready" approach ... yet?
