Beaner does pre-Join page, then initial price up top, rebill price down below. Paully does non-recurring but his signup process is a little more cluttered.

Join forms: Keep them as simple as possible. It's perfectly fine to say up top $24.95* then down below *rebills at $24.95 as long as the font isn't tiny.

I don't like pre-Join forms. I consider them 'speed bumps' to Joining. But many do so it obviously works, for some. How a Join page is displayed is very important but also how many join choices there are, too. For my sites I found more Join options tended to either scatter sales across billers (not raising sales, which was the point) and rebills crashed dead. I can probably improve in this area if I could find a way of displaying the other Join options without overwhelming the potential Member.

Rebills vs. No Rebills is interesting. I can add only this: rebills only = chargebacks rising. "Oh shit I forgot to cancel that Membership!" and it's straight to Visa to complain/chargeback.
