When Can a Durable Goods Seller Price Discriminate Intertemporally?
A standard result in the literature on durable goods is that if buyers have foresight regarding a durable goods seller’s future pricing strategies, then the seller cannot perfectly price discriminate intertemporally. In a finite time horizon framework where buyers are large and finite in number, Bagnoli, Salant, and Swierzbinski (1989) constructed numerical examples in which the seller of the durable product is able to perfectly price discriminate across its consumers. This paper extends the examples in Bagnoli et al. to a general model of a durablegoods seller selling over a finite horizon to any finite number of individually significant consumers with different reservation prices for the product and provides a complete characterization of the equilibrium pricing strategies of the seller.
期刊介绍:
The Review of Marketing Science (ROMS) is a peer-reviewed electronic-only journal whose mission is twofold: wide and rapid dissemination of the latest research in marketing, and one-stop review of important marketing research across the field, past and present. Unlike most marketing journals, ROMS is able to publish peer-reviewed articles immediately thanks to its electronic format. Electronic publication is designed to ensure speedy publication. It works in a very novel and simple way. An issue of ROMS opens and then closes after a year. All papers accepted during the year are part of the issue, and appear as soon as they are accepted. Combined with the rapid peer review process, this makes for quick dissemination.
