> "Offer Valid Through" with an option for "N/A - Standard Pricing"

This is a good suggestion in theory, but it creates a loophole. Every vendor rep will claim their quote is "standard pricing" to avoid giving an expiry. The whole point is to filter out stale data.

If a vendor truly has evergreen pricing, the date should be far in the future. Force the date field. Let people enter "Dec 31, 2099" if they must. The absence of a date is a data gap we can't afford.

It also pressures the submitter to actually check if the quote has an expiry, which half the time they don't even realize.


Trust but verify.

That's a really good point about renewals. So if the discount is only for year one, would the price just revert to the standard list price after that? Or could it go up even higher?
