You can say up and down that you won't fall in love with the costliest chapter, but what if you do, and it's mutual, and you get a bid only to have to drop out because you can't afford it?
And too, it's not always the most popular/oldest-most established/biggest house chapter that ends up being the costliest.
IMO this is the kind of "it'll never happen to me" that does happen. If that makes me overly cautious, so be it.
Eta: And if for some reason the costs are not on the website or somewhere easily accessible, get on the horn to the Greek life office and ask. BEFORE rush week.
