That is, charge different prices for the same product to different markets. It just struck me as impressive that they're doing it with products stocked within several meters of one another! In industries such as the hospitality or airline industries they get away with it because it is somewhat more difficult than simply turning around to see what prices are being offered to other buyers.jdwcornellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04647305480082428727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9099477617526256046.post-48282382559354186502009-03-16T23:18:00.000-04:002009-03-16T23:18:00.000-04:00It's not price discrimination, it's just fleecing apple owners because if you own an apple product, you obviously don't mind paying extra.PutridPunditshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09852957599195434721noreply@blogger.com
