    Conditioning Prices on Purchase History Alessandro Acquisti Hal R. Varian [email protected] University of California, Berkeley Conditioning Prices – p.1/34 Introduction • 1988: cost of a gigabyte of hard disk storage was about $11,500 • 2000: cost was $13, roughly 900 times cheaper. • It is now possible to save, analyze, and use information about individual customers. • Loyalty programs for airlines, hotels, supermarkets. • Cookies, logins, credit card numbers for online purchases. • But buyers can take defensive measures. • How do these effects work themselves out?

Conditioning Prices – p.4/34 Pricing strategy • Flat pricing • Sell only to high, makes profit 2πvH . • Sell to all, makes profit 2vL. • Price conditioning: an example • Set high price first period • Sell at high price second period to those who bought first period • Sell at low price to others second period.
