Taking that first leap is pretty scary, and it gets weird when you realize sometimes you get more sales when you raise your prices.

It's been ten years or so, but once I had an application I charged £5 for. There were so few users that support costs were always too high. Raising the price to £50 actually resulted in more sales, and fewer "Your application sucks" support-requests.




That's great to know, thank you. Maybe if things get too annoying I'll just raise prices. I didn't even think of that.
