Mar 26, 2007 -- Prices of goods the same in every store?
Everything you buy these days has an MSRP, or manufacturer suggested retail price. But that is not necessarily what you will pay for it. Basically, the marketplace decides in the end. But, right now, the Supreme Court is hearing arguments that manufacturers should be able to fix the price of something. If the Supremes agree to this measure, a manufacturer sets the price and no matter where you buy it, the price is the same. That means the cost at Marshalls and Stein Mart will be the same at Macys and Dillards. Clark hopes this does not happen. It will take away the consumers ability to comparison shop. Legal eagles think the Supremes will rule in favor of the manufacturers because it will cause people to buy other brands. Well keep you posted.
