I spent a little while looking at their site and docs, and I cant find any information on what storage actually costs. Where are you finding this information?

There isn’t really a single price. Each miner sets their prices dynamically (off-chain). Some miners set ridiculous prices to scare off load and some even set their prices to zero to attract test deal traffic. Miners have different reliability and business strategies too. If you look at average prices for asks or deals, it can be very misleading.
