Competitive Bundling
This paper proposes a model of competitive bundling with an arbitrary number of rms. In the regime of pure bundling, we nd that relative to separate sales pure bundling tends to raise market prices, bene t rms, and harm consumers when the number of rms is above a threshold. This is in contrast to the ndings in the duopoly case on which the existing literature often focuses. Our analysis al...
متن کاملCompetitive Nonlinear Pricing and Bundling∗
We examine the impact of multiproduct nonlinear pricing on profit, consumer surplus and welfare in a duopoly. When consumers buy all their products from one firm (the one-stop shopping model), nonlinear pricing leads to higher profit and welfare, but usually lower consumer surplus, than linear pricing. By contrast, in a unit-demand model where consumers may buy one product from one firm and ano...
متن کاملConsumer Surplus in Online Auctions
Despite the growing research interest in Internet auctions, particularly those on eBay, little is known about the quantifiable consumer welfare accrued from such mechanisms. Using an ongoing novel field experiment, we collect and examine a unique dataset to empirically quantify and understand determinants of consumer surplus in eBay auctions. Our analysis, based on a sample of 5157 eBay auction...
متن کاملMixed Bundling in Duopoly
We present a model where producers of complementary goods have the option to practice mixed bundling. In the first stage of a two-stage game, firms choose between a mixed bundling and a non-bundling strategy. In the second stage, firms choose prices. We show that mixed bundling is a dominant strategy for both firms. However, when the composite goods are not very close substitutes, at the bundli...
