    Pricing and Fees in Auction Platforms with Two-Sided Entry

    Discussion Paper PRICING AND FEES IN AUCTION PLATFORMS WITH TWO-SIDED ENTRY Marleen Marra SCIENCES PO ECONOMICS DISCUSSION PAPER No. 2020-02 Pricing and fees in auction platforms with two-sided entry Marleen Marra∗ December 2019 Abstract This paper presents, solves, and estimates the first structural auction model with seller selection. This allows me to quantify network effects arising from endogenous bidder and seller entry into auction platforms, facilitating the es- timation of theoretically ambiguous fee impacts by tracing them through the game. Relevant model primitives are identified from variation in second-highest bids and reserve prices. My estimator builds off the discrete choice literature to address the double nested fixed point characterization of the entry equilib- rium. Using new wine auction data, I estimate that this platform's revenues increase up to 60% when introducing a bidder discount and simultaneously in- creasing seller fees. More bidders enter when the platform is populated with lower-reserve setting sellers, driving up prices. Moreover, I show that mean- ingful antitrust damages can be estimated in a platform setting despite this two-sidedness.

  • Bidding Strategy and Auction Design

    Bidding Strategy and Auction Design

    16 ■ Bidding Strategy and Auction Design UCTIONS AS MECHANISMS for selling goods and services date back to ancient Greece and Rome, where slaves and wives were commonly bought and sold at well-known public auction sites. Although the auction waned as a sales mechanism for several centuries after the fall of the Roman Em- pire,A it regained popularity in eighteenth-century Britain and has been a com- mon, if not ubiquitous, method of commerce since that time. Many thousands of people now make purchases at online auctions every day, and some may buy other items by way of mechanisms that are not even recognized as auctions. Despite this long history, the first formal analysis of auctions dates only to 1961 and the path-breaking work of Nobel Prize winner William Vickrey. In the decades that followed, economists have devoted considerable energy to devel- oping a better understanding of sales by auction, from the standpoint of both buyers (bidding strategy) and sellers (auction design). We cover both topics and provide a primer on auction rules and environments in this chapter. Technically, the term “auction” refers to any transaction where the final price of the object for sale is arrived at by way of competitive bidding. Many dif- ferent types of transactions fit this description. For example, the historic Filene’s Basement department store in Boston used a clever pricing strategy to keep cus- tomers coming back for more: it reduced the prices on items remaining on the racks successively each week until either the goods were purchased or the price got so low that it donated the items to charity.
