Curious. I just visited and all the pages I went to had prices listed
(but see below.) I do have Firefox with NoScript and my default settings
disable JavaScript on all sites, so that may make a difference. I did
turn on JavaScript just for cpooutlets.com (not for all the rest of the
scripts and ad-collectors they seem to run) and still saw prices. Maybe
its just loading too slowly for you.

Hmmm. well, I found one item with a "see price in cart" ("Milwaukee
48-22-9407 7 Pc Combination Wrench Set - SAE") The note attached says
"price is below MSRP, so can't be displayed" or words to that effect.
