Abstract

Internet firms charge a wide range of prices for nearly homogeneous products and price dispersion vary significantly across markets. This study is an attempt to explain different levels of price dispersion across online product markets. We found price dispersion vary systematically with the number of firms offering the product and the markets at which consumers are more informed have smaller price dispersion. Moreover prices charged by individual retailers decline as the number of retailers selling the same product rise.

Özet

İnternetteki alışveriş firmaları benzer veya aynı ürünler için birbirinden oldukça farklı fiyatlarda satış yapabilmektedir. Fiyat farklılıkları sektörlere göre önemli oranda farklılık göstermektedir. Bu çalışma sektörlere göre önemli ölçüde değişiklik gösteren fiyat farklılıklarını açıklamayı amaçlamaktadır. Çalışma sonunda fiyat farklılıklarının aynı ürünü satan firma sayısı azaldıkça arttığı ve tüketici bilinç ve bilgi seviyesi yükseldikçe azaldığı sonucuna ulaşıldı. Ayrıca aynı ürünü satan firma sayısı arttıkça ürünün ortalama fiyatının azaldığı bulundu.
