I wouldn't have an issue paying $1,000 for a landing page, but I do have an issue paying $1,000 for a landing page where the developer only devotes a single day to learning about my business, understanding the problems we're solving, writing copy, designing, and coding.

I'm looking at the before and after example, and there are just a few words changed, previous headlines enlarged and colored, and a call to action at the very bottom. Yes, those are positive changes, but for $1,000 I'm expecting someone to bring far more to the table than a few minor tweaks. If you're asking for a premium price, I'm expecting a premium service.
