Given the price of the parts I'd strongly consider offering the first month free, or at most for the cost of shipping. I just don't see too many people parting with $20 based on a landing page + no social proof.

I could be wrong though...

Same here.

Especially as it seems to be aimed at novices like myself I'd like to see something a bit more tangible that I'm signing up for.

Almost pulled the trigger and then decided it was simply too vague a proposition to impulse buy a monthly returning cost for.

I agree - I kept looking around the page for more details. The landing page seems too basic to sell me on a subscription.

I think it would be a very good idea for them to get some prominent bloggers to do a review of the first kit.

They are offering 60 days money back guarantee, so isn't that pretty much equivalent to first month free?
