Both. Most people pay the minimum price for the tier that they want, just as they do with bundles from other sources such as Humble Bundle, which may or may not contain extra titles they are not interested in, although of course you are welcome to pay more if you like, just as the people listed on the Top Contributors leaderboard at HB quite often do. And I figure that people will see the higher suggested price when they actually visit the page, so I needn't mention it, any more than I need mention the default setting for the slider on a StoryBundle offering, which is usually well above their top tier price.
Phoenix Pick Press is quite generous with the freebies and offers more closely-targeted tie-in deals than most retailers. But the cumulative result of their previous sales and bundle offers quite often means that one will already have a few books in the current bundle offer anyway.
I've skipped the past half year's worth of tie-in deals myself because I've usually already bought enough of the offered books that it would have been cheaper to buy the "missing" ones at full price rather than rebuying the lot in the new bundle, even with the significant discounts.
Hope this helps.
