  • Publication number: 20150006309
    Abstract: A method for operating a dynamic pricing system wherein the initial price of products and/or services (items) offered for sale decreases in pre-determined increments based on pre-determined quantities sold during the sale, allowing all buyers to purchase the item at the lowest price point reached by the disparate, aggregated group of buyers, thus providing incentive for buyers to entice additional buyers to purchase the item, driving the price of the item down to the lowest attainable level for all buyers while increasing sales at low cost for sellers.
