Designers, free quotes on design..

Hey all.
I just noticed that one design site had sign like this: "Free design quotes". Now what the fuck is that? Is it just me and that guy who do free quotes? Or you all are charging money for quotes???
Why would a designer start asking money for a quote that will only take him a freaking 20 seconds to determine the costs? Does anyone charge money for it? Please enlighten me, cuz I feel like I was abandoned on a deserted island..

Why someone would charge for a design quote is beyond me. I can understand with tangible services like someone having to drive out somewhere to look at a space to give a quote, but for design?

Duh?

It's just a figure of speach...

"call now for your free quote"
"no credit applications refused"

Just tag lines to help get people into the door.

because in industries other than ours people do charge for qoutes so I guess some people just want to point out that isn't the case.

Don't worry by qouting skills come free
