It would be interesting if you could browse online retailers with the prices turned off. Interesting to see how it might effect your buying habits and taste. Also you could at least at first just see how much you like that pipe before looking at the price tag. Just a thought. Probably not worth the effort but still be a neat feature.

I think I would get annoyed by that. Whenever Amazon or New Egg insists you put the item in your cart to see the price I'm put off by it.
as an option though. You can still browse by price or keep them turned on, but you would have the option to hide them. I thought this while looking at pipes and going nice one not sure it's 400 hundred nice. And wondering if I'd still feel that way if I just looked at the pipe without the price tag jumping out at me. Also remember some shops having the price on a little paper tag that hung off the stem with a hand written price. Often the shop keeper knew what they wrote on the pipe and didn't have to look at the tag. But it was a different experience to just browse the pipes and not check the price until you thought I like this one.
