your statistic is wrong: 75-80% of people UNCHECK PRECHECKED XSELLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would say that out of 100 signups, 98 people fully understand what they are signing up for, 75-80 of then UNCHECK the xsells, 18 - 23 of them see the xsells and leave then checked because they like the 'offer' and 2 of them are too lazy to read.

Also, remember that on 100% of transactions people have to check a Terms and condition box. This check box is directly below the xsell offer, so their eyes MUST pass over the pre-checked boxes.

Also, nearly all join pages have radio buttons or drop-downs that are defaulted to full-monthly price points and not to trials, yet from my experience, greater than 85% of people select the 'trial' join.

So, for your theory to hold up, these 'people' are smart enough to select the trial option, smart enough to check the terms and condition box, yet THEIR BRAIN FALLS OUT OF THEIR HEAD as soon as they see a pre-checked xsell box.

pllllllleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez. There is no data or other evidence to support you number or your theory.
