how do you find the price of train travel on the SBB site

How do you find the price of train travel on the SBB site? Do you have to click on buy ticket and go to check out to see the prices? I am deciding between half fare card and a swiss travel pass and the prices of my planned train rides may make a difference in what I choose.

Also, do you find the lines long to buy train tickets each time ? Is the convenience of a Swiss Travel pass worth it just to skip ticket lines? Most of my time will be in Bernese Oberland and Zermatt where i may have to stand in ticket lines anyways to get the lifts up the mountain. Any thoughts?

Yes, click on the "buy" button and you'll get the full fare price.
Swiss people usually buy their tickets out of the ticket automats or with their smart phones with the SBB app, so the other people in line will tend to be foreigners like yourself.
