The Timing of Sales
构建了一个跨期价格歧视模型，分析固定数量卖方销售同质商品时，如何通过周期性降价吸引不同偏好的消费者，并探讨所有商店同时降价至同一水平的均衡情况。
This paper presents a model of intertemporal price discrimination. A fixed number of sellers produce a homogeneous good. Consumers with different preferences enter the market in each period and leave when they make a purchase. The sellers typically vary their prices over time, charging a high price in most periods, but occasionally cutting the price to sell to a large group of customers with a low reservation price. In some equilibria, all stores lower their price at the same time and to the same level.
