Abstract
Corts [Economic Lett. 47 (1995) 417] showed that when allowing for price-be ating policies in addition to price-matching policies, the competitive outc ome prevails in lieu of monopoly pricing. I show by expanding the strategy set further to include effective price strategies, the possibility of monop oly pricing is restored. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved .
