It ends up looking like the 2nd screenshot including links to gifts at each price point. @ Crowdstormer, Wow, understandable fear on the retailer's part but he/she has to understand this is a trust-builder and an important concern for customers. Especially when people comparison shop - knowing the item will be there on time can be a stronger influence than price, in my opinion. @ Alexis,

@ Crowdstormer,

Wow, understandable fear on the retailer’s part but he/she has to understand this is a trust-builder and an important concern for customers. Especially when people comparison shop – knowing the item will be there on time can be a stronger influence than price, in my opinion.

This attitude probably applies to a lot of online retailers: I've noticed quite a few without this information on their site.

Aren't they hidding other important information? It’s nice to tell users that they still have time to place orders, but Ice.com sign is just to much. Aren’t they hidding other important information?
