For some catalogs, showing a list price is the wrong move: pricing depends on volume, customer, or negotiation, and a public number either scares buyers off or undercuts your reps. Hiding the price and replacing checkout with a quote request turns the catalog into a lead engine.
You want control, not an all-or-nothing switch. Hide prices and the Add to Cart button globally, or only for specific products, categories, user roles, or guests. That lets you keep a normal storefront for retail while trade products go quote-only.
Where the price used to be, show an "Add to Quote" button. Customers build a quote basket and submit their requirements; you respond with a priced, branded quotation and convert it to a paid order when it's agreed.
If you run a trade-only catalog, require login or limit quote requests to specific B2B roles, so the flow stays clean.
