520			_aDo users value a free technology less than one they pay for? In a two-stage randomized trial of improved grain storage technology in India, we test whether subsequent user willingness-to-pay is affected by free distribution compared to a small positive price. We find paying an initial price of zero has a strong negative effect on users’ long-run willingness-to-pay but is not associated with differences in either reported use or benefits derived from the technology. The lower valuation implies a 20 to 30 percent decrease in long-run adoption, suggesting free distribution can stifle future markets for repeat-purchase goods.
