Answer 1

Checkout Magento Hide Price Extension

It will allow you to hide add to cart button & price from non logged in users. Following options are provided with this extension:

1.Hide Price & Add to Cart button - If admin has set the option to hide prices only for guest or visitors then product price is hidden on store’s front end and a pre defined message is displayed. (Ex. You need to be logged in to see the price!). Only logged in customers can see the prices in this particular case.

2.Call For Price - If admin has setup “Call for price” option then all guests, visitors or even customers will not be able to see the product price or add to cart button, instead they will see store’s phone number to inquire about the price OR Hide Price Magento extension also creates a link on store’ front-end, when customer click’s on this link a form comes which sends an email to admin about the price request. Admin can setup the email addresses which get notified when price request is done by customer. Admin have ability to enable or displable the customer notification for his/her request.

3.Inquiry Form - If admin has setup “Inquire” option then all guests, visitors or even customers will keep showing the product prices but will disable/remove/hide add to cart button for everyone. For safety reasons some products may not be sold online so they can be shown with the prices but instead of showing add to cart you can display an inquiry form link, which will show a popup with contact details of store owner or with a form to be filled by the customer to inquire about the product which sends an email to admin. Admin can setup the email addresses which get notified when Inquiry request is done by customer. Admin have ability to enable or displable the customer notification for his/her request.
