Whereas, I'd click the $10 button because I don't really give a damn whether my Paypal button is telling the truth or not; it costs me half as much, and that means like what, an extra two lattes? Sweet!

The logic here is that, if I can get the same item at two different price points with equal amounts of effort, there is no reason I will choose the higher price point, and I'd find it insulting to my intelligence for a seller to believe I would.

Are you saying "the existence of this is a turn-off" or "I would always pay the lower rate, regardless of my circumstances"?

The former means that the idea needs work, or discarding. I don't really care about the latter. Presumably there will be a share of liars and freeloaders.

Both. Frankly, I find the very idea of having a 'hardship rate' for an obvious luxury product to be somewhere in the area between insulting and ridiculous.
