Regulation

Has any attempt been made to regulate price discrimination? If the answer is yes, then perhaps it should be added to the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lbertolotti (talkcontribs) 19:31, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

Piracy - there isn't a discussion about producers of, for instance, branded, or copyrighted articles pirating their own goods in order to effect price discrimination. Could someone take up the gauntlet?

Patrick, again I wish to take issue with your correction. We know from economics 101 that total revenue is equal to quantity sold times the price. The quantity sold in the second market is 0,Q2 The price in that maket is 0,P2 The total revenue is 0, P2, C, Q2 . You seem to be saying that the amount sold in that market is Q1, Q2 . It is not. You measure from the axis, not from an arbitrary point on the axis. The fact that say 100 units is sold to market 1 does not influence the fact that say 300 units is sold in market 2. - - user:mydogategodshat

Come to think about it, you might be right. Let me think about this for a moment maydogategodshat

If my original area is right, the double counting from multiple pricings would increase revenue exponentially. I think you are right. I had better change the lettering on the diagram. mydogategodshat

People are willing to pay P2 or more for an amount Q2. Of this, an amount Q1 can be sold for P1, for the remaining Q2-Q1 a price of P2 is set. - Patrick 02:27 30 Jun 2003 (UTC)
