not sure what the brick and mortar equivalent is. what does that mean?
retailers pay suppliers some wholesale cost for their goods. doesn’t seem like an analogous situation to a marketplace that takes a fixed cut of every sale.
- meheleventyone 6y agoIn the olden days of game stores shelf space was at a premium so the power dynamic was on the side of the retailer, particularly with the larger chains who had a lot of room to negotiate their cut rather than buying wholesale.
- wmf 6y agoIf the wholesale cost is too close to MSRP, retailers will generally either refuse to carry the product or sell it above MSRP.
