In Sim Lim cases, a person paid $1k for iPhone insurance. He "agreed" to buy it because the price is not clearly written.
In some restaurants prices are not written clearly and people can then be charge exorbitant prices.
Insurance costs can vary by up to 100 times because the cost is simply not written clearly.

Say you are a scientists. You have 10 studies supporting your theory and 90 studies showing you are wrong. You only quote the 10 studies to people that can't expect.
